[Insight-developers] modifying BUILDNAME

[Miller, James V (Research)]

I like option 1 (and option 3 as a short term solution).

Subject: RE: [Insight-developers] modifying BUILDNAME


This is not a ctest/Dart issue.  This problem comes from a change made in
cmake 1.8.
In cmake 1.6 BUILDNAME was a cache variable, and in 1.8 it was changed to be
a non-cached
variable.    The BUILDNAME variable is still being used, but there is no way
to change
it with the CMakeSetup or ccmake.   You can specify it on the command line
with a -DBUILDNAME=,
or you can manually edit the cache file, or pre-load the cache. In
retrospect, I think 
this change was a mistake.   So, at this point, to fix the problem, I
propose the following:


1. Change cmake to cache the variable again.   Put this change into 1.8.4.
 
2. Add the variable as a cache entry in the ITK CMakeLists.txt files, which
means
it will start working after an update to ITK, and we won't have to wait for
cmake 1.8.4.

3. Lydia, if you want to change this right now, you can add the entry by
hand into
the cache, or use a -DBUILDNAME="name" on the command line to CMakeSetup or
ccmake.

If I don't hear any other ideas, I willl make the above changes today.
Sorry for the confusion.

is not found, then ctest is used as the client. I think ctest creates the
build name auomatically. Make sure Dart is found, then reconfingure and see
if that helps,
