build solution using cmake command in cmd

[Cplusc]

I'm trying to run the following lines using command prompt in my source file directory.

mkdir build_dir
cd build_dir
cmake \

I have two problems. I am getting following error while I have CMakeLists.txt in the source directory.

"CMake Error: The source directory "/" does not appear to contain CMakeLists.txt."
"The source directory "/-D" does not exist."

Thanks for your help in advance.

IIRC, you need to remove the space between the -D and the symbol being defined. So:

-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:STRING=DEBUG \

etc.

[Cplusc]

I tried that but it didn't help. Also It says Cmakelists.txt does not exist while it does.

[kbw]

Should be: CMakelists.txt

[Cplusc]

I downloaded the latest version of Trilinos here https://github.com/trilinos/Trilinos/releases.
I have Cmakelists.txt in the file directory.
It seems I should write my own CMakelists, but I have no experience in writing that. This is the CMakelists.txt.

When in directory build_dir, what does ls -l .. show?

CMakeLists.txt is the first item. POSIX file names are case sensitive.

[Cplusc]

I'm sorry but I didn't get what I should do now. You mean cmake should come before CMakeLists.txt?

[kbw]

rm -rf build_dir
mkdir build_dir
cd build_dir
cmake <your args> ..

The trailing .. tells cmake that the CMakeLists.txt is in the parent directory.

[Cplusc]

Thank you.

[Cplusc]

When I run the commands like

cmake  -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:STRING=DEBUG \
-DTPL_LAPACK_LIBRARIES:FILEPATH=d:\\hpfem\\
hermes\\dependencies\\lib\\lapack.lib \-DTPL_BLAS_LIBRARIES:FILEPATH=d:\\
hpfem\\hermes\\dependencies\\lib\\blas.lib \ -DCMAKE_Fortran_FLAGS:STRING="-fPIC" \ .. 

Then everything is fine. Why the \ front of cmake is a problem?

[kbw]

Those are line continuation characters. They're used by the shell to make all of that one single line.
