NAME

       ccmake - CMake Curses Dialog Command-Line Reference

SYNOPSIS

          ccmake [<options>] (<path-to-source> | <path-to-existing-build>)

DESCRIPTION

       The “ccmake” executable is the CMake curses interface.  Project configuration settings may
       be specified interactively through this GUI.   Brief  instructions  are  provided  at  the
       bottom of the terminal when the program is running.

       CMake  is  a  cross-platform build system generator.  Projects specify their build process
       with platform-independent CMake listfiles included in each directory of a source tree with
       the  name CMakeLists.txt.  Users build a project by using CMake to generate a build system
       for a native tool on their platform.

OPTIONS

       -C <initial-cache>
              Pre-load a script to populate the cache.

              When cmake is first run in an empty build tree, it creates  a  CMakeCache.txt  file
              and  populates  it  with customizable settings for the project.  This option may be
              used to specify a file from which to load  cache  entries  before  the  first  pass
              through  the  project’s cmake listfiles.  The loaded entries take priority over the
              project’s default values.  The given file should be a CMake script  containing  SET
              commands that use the CACHE option, not a cache-format file.

       -D <var>:<type>=<value>, -D <var>=<value>
              Create a cmake cache entry.

              When  cmake  is  first run in an empty build tree, it creates a CMakeCache.txt file
              and populates it with customizable settings for the project.  This  option  may  be
              used  to  specify  a  setting that takes priority over the project’s default value.
              The option may be repeated for as many cache entries as desired.

              If the :<type> portion is given it must be one of the types specified by the  set()
              command  documentation  for its CACHE signature.  If the :<type> portion is omitted
              the entry will be created with no type if it does not exist with  a  type  already.
              If a command in the project sets the type to PATH or FILEPATH then the <value> will
              be converted to an absolute path.

              This option may also be given  as  a  single  argument:  -D<var>:<type>=<value>  or
              -D<var>=<value>.

       -U <globbing_expr>
              Remove matching entries from CMake cache.

              This  option  may  be  used to remove one or more variables from the CMakeCache.txt
              file, globbing expressions using * and ? are supported.  The option may be repeated
              for as many cache entries as desired.

              Use with care, you can make your CMakeCache.txt non-working.

       -G <generator-name>
              Specify a build system generator.

              CMake  may support multiple native build systems on certain platforms.  A generator
              is responsible for generating a particular build system.  Possible generator  names
              are specified in the cmake-generators(7) manual.

       -T <toolset-spec>
              Toolset specification for the generator, if supported.

              Some  CMake  generators  support  a  toolset specification to tell the native build
              system how to choose a compiler.   See  the  CMAKE_GENERATOR_TOOLSET  variable  for
              details.

       -A <platform-name>
              Specify platform name if supported by generator.

              Some  CMake  generators  support  a  platform  name to be given to the native build
              system to choose a compiler or SDK.  See the CMAKE_GENERATOR_PLATFORM variable  for
              details.

       -Wno-dev
              Suppress developer warnings.

              Suppress  warnings  that  are  meant for the author of the CMakeLists.txt files. By
              default this will also turn off deprecation warnings.

       -Wdev  Enable developer warnings.

       -Werror=dev
              Make developer warnings errors.

              Make developer warnings not errors.

              Make warnings that are meant for the author of the CMakeLists.txt files not errors.
              By default this will also turn off deprecated warnings as errors.

              Enable deprecated functionality warnings.

              author of the CMakeLists.txt files.

       -Werror=deprecated
              Make deprecated macro and function warnings errors.

              Make  warnings for usage of deprecated macros and functions, that are meant for the
              author of the CMakeLists.txt files, errors.
