NAME Alien::cmake3 - Find or download or build cmake 3 or better VERSION version 0.02 SYNOPSIS From Perl: use Alien::cmake3; use Env qw( @PATH ); unshift @PATH, Alien::cmake->bin_dir; system 'cmake', ...; From alienfile use alienfile; share { requires Alien::cmake3; build [ '%{cmake3} ...' '%{make}', '%{make} install', ], }; DESCRIPTION This Alien distribution provides an external dependency on the build tool cmake version 3.0.0 or better. cmake is a popular alternative to autoconf. METHODS bin_dir my @dirs = Alien::cmake3->bin_dir; List of directories that need to be added to the PATH in order for cmake to work. exe my $exe = Alien::cmake3->exe; The name of the cmake executable. HELPERS cmake3 %{cmake3} The name of the executable. SEE ALSO Alien::CMake This is an older distribution that provides an alienized cmake. It is different in these ways: Alien::cmake3 is based on alienfile and Alien::Build and integrates better with Aliens that are based on that technology. Alien::cmake3 will provide version 3.0.0 or better. Alien::CMake will provide 2.x.x on some platforms where more recent binaries are not available. Alien::cmake3 will install on platforms where there is no system cmake and no binary cmake provided by cmake.org. It does this by building cmake from source. Alien::cmake3 is preferred in the opinion of the maintainer of both Alien::cmake3 and Alien::CMake for these reasons.
