Unfortunately, the answer is no. If Cmake was available, it would have been either on VMS freeware CD or on the "Unix on VMS" kit cleverly called GNV. For the freeware CD, abstracts of packages, and the packages themselves are available on: http://h71000.www7.hp.com/openvms/freeware/ GNV and other Open source tools are available at: http://h71000.www7.hp.com/opensource/opensource.html Thanks, Boris ----- Original Message ----- From: "Boris Gubenko" <Boris.Gubenko@hp.com> To: <boost@lists.boost.org> Cc: "Boris Gubenko" <Boris.Gubenko@hp.com> Sent: Thursday, May 17, 2007 3:16 AM Subject: Re: [boost] Boost building with CMake

While I'm at that point (cross-platform) - does anyone know if CMake is available for OpenVMS? I'm well aware that Boost.Build isn't compatible with OpenVMS currently, but I also believe that porting the current system would not be impossible as most of the Jam stuff is VMS-capable.
I don't know if Cmake is available VMS. From
http://www.vtk.org/Bug/bug.php?op=show&bugid=3974&pos=6
it looks like the only problem with Cmake on VMS is that it does not generate MMS rules (as you, probably, know, MMS is VMS native make, it is close to Posix make. Since VMS has gmake (on the Freeware CD) and Cmake can generate rules for gmake, I'm not sure what's the point in adding support for MMS to Cmake.
Anyway, I'll try to find out if Cmake was ported to VMS and will get back to you.
Thanks, Boris

Hi, Does anyone have access to a VMS machine that can run CMake dashboards? I am pretty sure that the port should be easy, but I would like to make sure the port stays working. So, if anyone has access to a VMS machine and is willing to help out, I will try my best to CMake running on VMS quick. Thanks. -Bill

I'm not sure what you mean by "run CMake dashboards", but you can get an account on a machine maintained by the HP TestDrive program. Please go to: www.testdrive.hp.com select "Get an Account" and fill out the form. According to "Current systems", there are two VMS/IA64 machines in the pool.

Thank you for the willingness to port Cmake to VMS. Please let me know (via direct mail) if you need any assistance.
