CMake enters an infinite loop when used with specific config
Posted: Mon Apr 15, 2013 11:11 pm
CMake version 2.8.10.2
When used with environment variable CXX unset, clang support, and a gentoo-specific cmake rule file that reads:
The configure process enters an infinite loop.
The culprit is here: that CMakeLists.txt
This is unnecessary because it already is CMake default behaviour. (this is documented here: http://www.cmake.org/pipermail/cmake/20 ... 35815.html).
It is also dangerous, because in my particular case, where CXX environment variable is different from the CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER that I set in the rule file, it causes configure to be run over and over again. Compilation never occurs.
