17 unshift @PATH, Alien::cmake3->bin_dir;
18 system 'cmake', ...;

20 From alienfile
21
22 use alienfile;
23
24 share {
25 # Build::CMake plugin pulls in Alien::cmake3 automatically
26 plugin 'Build::CMake';
27 build [
28 # this is the default build step, if you do not specify one.
29 [ '%{cmake}', -G => '%{cmake_generator}', '-DCMAKE_POSITION_INDEPENDENT_CODE:BOOL=true', '-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=%{.install.prefix}', '.' ],
30 '%{make}',
31 '%{make} install',
32 ];
33 };
34
36 This Alien distribution provides an external dependency on the build
37 tool "cmake" version 3.0.0 or better. "cmake" is a popular alternative
38 to autoconf.
39
41 bin_dir
42 my @dirs = Alien::cmake3->bin_dir;
43
44 List of directories that need to be added to the "PATH" in order for
45 "cmake" to work.
46
47 exe
48 my $exe = Alien::cmake3->exe;
49
50 The name of the "cmake" executable.
51
53 cmake3
54 %{cmake3}
55
56 The name of the <cmake> executable.
57
59 Alien::Build::Plugin::Build::CMake
60 Alien::Build plugin for "cmake" This will automatically pull in
61 Alien::cmake3 if you need it.
62
63 Alien::CMake
64 This is an older distribution that provides an alienized "cmake".
65 It is different in these ways:
66
67 Alien::cmake3 is based on alienfile and Alien::Build
68 It integrates better with Aliens that are based on that
69 technology.
70
71 Alien::cmake3 will provide version 3.0.0 or better
72 Alien::CMake will provide 2.x.x on some platforms where more
73 recent binaries are not available.
74
75 Alien::cmake3 will install on platforms where there is no system
76 "cmake" and no binary "cmake" provided by cmake.org
77 It does this by building "cmake" from source.
78
79 Alien::cmake3 is preferred
80 In the opinion of the maintainer of both Alien::cmake3 and
81 Alien::CMake for these reasons.
