| 1 | == How to build expat with cmake (experimental) ==\r |
| 2 | \r |
| 3 | The cmake based buildsystem for expat works on Windows (cygwin, mingw, Visual \r |
| 4 | Studio) and should work on all other platform cmake supports.\r |
| 5 | \r |
| 6 | Assuming ~/expat-2.1.0 is the source directory of expat, add a subdirectory\r |
| 7 | build and change into that directory:\r |
| 8 | ~/expat-2.1.0$ mkdir build && cd build\r |
| 9 | ~/expat-2.1.0/build$\r |
| 10 | \r |
| 11 | From that directory, call cmake first, then call make, make test and \r |
| 12 | make install in the usual way:\r |
| 13 | ~/expat-2.1.0/build$ cmake ..\r |
| 14 | -- The C compiler identification is GNU\r |
| 15 | -- The CXX compiler identification is GNU\r |
| 16 | ....\r |
| 17 | -- Configuring done\r |
| 18 | -- Generating done\r |
| 19 | -- Build files have been written to: /home/patrick/expat-2.1.0/build\r |
| 20 | \r |
| 21 | If you want to specify the install location for your files, append \r |
| 22 | -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/your/install/path to the cmake call.\r |
| 23 | \r |
| 24 | ~/expat-2.1.0/build$ make && make test && make install\r |
| 25 | Scanning dependencies of target expat\r |
| 26 | [ 5%] Building C object CMakeFiles/expat.dir/lib/xmlparse.c.o\r |
| 27 | [ 11%] Building C object CMakeFiles/expat.dir/lib/xmlrole.c.o\r |
| 28 | ....\r |

| 31 | -- Installing: /usr/local/share/man/man1/xmlwf.1\r |
| 32 | \r |
| 33 | For Windows builds, you must make sure to call cmake from an environment where \r |
| 34 | your compiler is reachable, that means either you call it from the \r |
| 35 | Visual Studio Command Prompt or when using mingw, you must open a cmd.exe and\r |
| 36 | make sure that gcc can be called. On Windows, you also might want to specify a \r |
| 37 | special Generator for CMake:\r |
| 38 | for Visual Studio builds do: \r |
| 39 | cmake .. -G "Visual Studio 10" && vcexpress expat.sln\r |
| 40 | for mingw builds do: \r |
| 41 | cmake .. -G "MinGW Makefiles" -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=D:\expat-install \r |
| 42 | && gmake && gmake install\r |
