[CMake] Problems with EnternalProjectAdd

[Romain LEGUAY]

Hi,

I think you need to set the variable CONFIGURE_COMMAND to empty like this:

> ExternalProject_Add(
>         freetype
>         PREFIX "${BUILD_ENV}/freetype"
>         GIT_REPOSITORY "https://github.com/brooklynpacket/freetype2.git"
>         GIT_TAG 64bit
         CONFIGURE_COMMAND ""
>         BUILD_COMMAND "cd ${CMAKE_BUILD_DIR}/freetype/src/freetype && ./autgen.sh && ./configure && make"
>         LOG_DOWNLOAD ON
>         LOG_INSTALL ON
>         LOG_CONFIGURE ON
>         LOG_BUILD ON
>         LOG_TEST ON
>         LOG_INSTALL ON
>         )
