the bootstrap method I have always successfully used for other CMake<br>
versions (including 3.7.2).<br>
<br>
For a complex project (PLplot) which uses swig_add_module and<br>
swig_link_libraries to implement our Java binding, I get the following<br>
error message at the end of that CMake-3.9.0 output.<br>
<br>
-- Configuring done<br>
CMake Error: Error required internal CMake variable not set, cmake may<br>
not be built correctly.<br>
Missing variable is:<br>
CMAKE_Java_CREATE_SHARED_MODUL<wbr>E<br>
-- Generating done<br>
-- Build files have been written to:<br>
/home/software/plplot/HEAD/bui<wbr>ld_dir<br>
<br>
I don't get this error message for CMake-3.7.2.<br>
<br>
Using find and xargs -0 grep I have looked in both 3.7.2 and 3.9.0<br>
source code for any mention of CMAKE_Java_CREATE_SHARED_MODUL<wbr>E, and it<br>
just does not exist.<br>
<br>
By the way, I have tried the following simple project.<br>
<br>
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.6.2 FATAL_ERROR)<br>
project(test_java NONE)<br>
enable_language(Java)<br>
