[CMake] Multi-platform visual studio projects

[Scott Aron Bloom]

Thanks..

I have been successful with

Src\build.32 and src\build.64 so that on svn update effects both.

The problem, for my automated build flow, I was hoping to make a mix, 32/64 installer.. it’s a lot harder to do with two completely separate build trees :(

As to my second question, and this is purely my newb'ness with 64 bit visual studio.

I know, to us "cl.exe" you must run the "vsvars" with the correct parameters, either for 32 or 64, before running cmake from the command line.

And to create the proper vcproj files you must append "Win64" to the generator name.

However,  once the solution is created, does the "path" of the shell matter at all?

Scott

No create 2 independent trees. I keep the source in a separate tree also. For example I have my source code in

x:\CMakeBased\Libraries\ITK-4.7.0
x:\CMakeBased\Libraries\VTK-5.10.2
...

x:\CMakeBased\Qt\LungAnalysis
x:\CMakeBased\Qt\StudyManager

...

Where Libraries are source code libraries like ITK, VTK, GDCM, DCMTK ...

And LungAnalysis, StudyManager  ... are applications written by me.


Then the build tress look like

x:\64bit\VC.100\Libraries\ITK-4.7.0
x:\64bit\VC.100\Libraries\VTK-5.10.2
x:\64bit\VC.100\Qt\LungAnalysis

...

x:\64bit\VC.120\Libraries\ITK-4.7.0
x:\64bit\VC.120\Libraries\VTK-5.10.2
x:\64bit\VC.120\Qt\LungAnalysis

...

x:\32bit\VC.100\Libraries\ITK-4.7.0
x:\32bit\VC.100\Libraries\VTK-5.10.2
x:\32bit\VC.100\Qt\LungAnalysis
