[Insight-developers] SimpleITK - CMake question (The Saga of Eggs on Windows…)

[Bradley Lowekamp]

Thanks JC,

That is very helpful and explains what is going on. And explains that this is a bit of a tricky problem.

It appears that the LOCATION property from:


> get_target_property( SIMPLEITK_BINARY_MODULE
>    ${SWIG_MODULE_SimpleITK_REAL_NAME} LOCATION )
>  configure_file( ${SimpleITK_SOURCE_DIR}/Wrapping/PythonPackage/setup.py.in
>    ${SimpleITK_BINARY_DIR}/Wrapping/PythonPackage/setup.py )


already has the CMAKE_CFG_INITDIR value embedded in it. So the value of  SIMPLEITK_BINARY_MODULE is "C:Build/SimpleITK/lib/$(Configuration)/_SimpleITK.pyd". 

This value is then later used at configuration time in a "configure_file". Unfortunately, the documentation linked below, reminds me that the configuration type is not known at configuration time and is only known at compilation. So it's impossible to know the value of "$(Configure)"  when the configuration file is generated.

I guess I need a build time version of "configure_file" which is aware of what build type is occurring…. Anyone done that before?

Thanks,
Brad
