[cmake] Where to discuss CMake in Boost?
Hi, TL;TR: Which is the right mailing list to discuss CMake in Boost? Numerous CMake discussions happened here lately which, I think, were mostly about the grand Boost vs CMake strategy, politics. The boost-cmake ml has been quiet for years now, according to its archives. https://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost-cmake Whereas, there has been lots of activity in development of CMake for various aspects: to use CMake inside Boost. to use CMake to build Boost, etc. That is https://github.com/boost-cmake where, in particular, I'm interested in https://github.com/boost-cmake/bcm Where can I ask *technical* questions about those to avoid polluting wrong list? Best regards. -- Mateusz Loskot, http://mateusz.loskot.net

I would like to point this as well: https://github.com/raffienficiaud/boost-cmake (my own, humble attempt). How easy is it to create a ML? Raffi

Thanks for the pointer. Facing abundance of CMake for Boost attempts, we may need a comparison matrix ;)

One exists already, or you mean different one? https://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost-cmake Best regards, -- Mateusz Loskot, http://mateusz.loskot.net

Right! The ML is still there, I agree that we should discuss those things in another place. My attempt is pretty advanced as all libraries can be more or less visible on an IDE without much effort. I do not require from a library author much for adapting the library to cmake, only a couple of variables, and some dependency definition. I was stuck on the handling of the stdlib static libraries, required for instance for the libICU linking in regex. This is not handled well by cmake, and requires changing the compilation definitions, which I would like to avoid. I have also "some" unit testing of those cmake files, and a quickbook target that I need to finish. I am willing to get this done :) Cheers, Raffi

Next time I have CMake in/for Boost question, I'll post it to boost-cmake ML.

Sounds good. Best regards, -- Mateusz Loskot, http://mateusz.loskot.net

You can always open an issue on bcm github if you like. I was completely unaware of the boost-cmake ML. Paul

Good to know, thanks I was completely unaware of the boost-cmake ML
It seems a bit hidden from the front page, one has to browse lists.boost.org for full list of MLs. -- Mateusz Loskot, mateusz@loskot.net (Sent from mobile)

A bit of judicious selective cross-posting to the user or developer lists might bring progress (or snags) with Cmake to a wider public? Paul --- Paul A. Bristow Prizet Farmhouse Kendal UK LA8 8AB +44 (0) 1539 561830

Same here. The list says I'm subscribed, but I've never gotten a message from it.
