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

There was some interest in VMS, but I don't think it went very far. If someone has access to a VMS machine, and they are willing to submit at least a Nightly CMake dashboard from it. (if not a continuous one) Then I would be happy to help with the port. I just need to make sure my time is not wasted in the port, as if we don't continuously test it, it will stop working in a short period of time. I would say for the first pass gmake would be the best way to go. -Bill
