This looks like asking for trouble. Why are you doing this? -- Oscar

...sy, at least with cmake 2.6, in a local project. set(CMAKE_USE_RELATIVE_PATHS ON) It works well for vcproj-generation. In Linux I could not test it comprehensively yet (as to why it is possible to copy a repository and build it in its new place w/o re-cmaking.) In addition we are setting set(CMAKE_SUPPRESS_REGENERATION ON) in order to not have a dependency on the CMakeLists when creating the vcproj-file. HTH, Patrick.

Hi Oscar, For development, CMake is working great for me. I rarely get build errors related to the project file being out-of-date. Is it true that CMake only generates absolute paths? Any idea on the difficulty of generating relative paths? I consider this a pretty big obstacle... Thanks for all your hard work on this, snaroff On Jan 15, 2009, at 9:46 AM, Óscar Fuentes wrote: >
