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

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