[CMake] -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER:string="g++"

[Marie-Christine Vallet]

Hi,
I would like to use g++ as my c compiler (which works) but cmake does 
not let me do that. Is this normal?
Thanks again,
Marie



 cmake -DCMAKE_Fortran_COMPILER:string=g77  
-DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER:string="g++" -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER:string="g++"
