Removed the following on the theory that it made it too much like advertising:

Major features

  • Configuration files are CMake scripts, which use a programming language specialized to software builds, said by its designers to be simple and compact.
  • Automatic dependency analysis built-in for C, C++, Fortran and Java,
  • Support of SWIG, Qt, FLTK via the CMake scripting language,
  • Built-in support for Microsoft Visual Studio .NET and past Visual Studio versions, including generation of .dsp, .dsw, .sln and .vcproj files,
  • Detection of file content changes using traditional timestamps,
  • Support for parallel builds,
  • Cross-compilation,
  • Global view of all dependencies, using CMake to output a graphviz diagram,
  • Designed from the ground up for cross-platform builds, and known to work on Linux, other POSIX systems (including AIX, *BSD systems, HP-UX, IRIX/SGI, MinGW/MSYS and Solaris), Mac OS X and Windows 95/98/NT/2000/XP,
  • Integrated with Dart, CTest and CPack, a collection of tools for software testing and release.

Notability issues regarding Andy Cedilnik and Ken Martin.

Both of these people have Wiki links pointing to no article. Unless someone is prepared to create articles for them - and not just about their work on CMake - then the links will be removed. Sslaxx (talk) 15:45, 4 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Duplicates

Blender is also listed as using SCons! Is it possible it uses the two? I find it hard to belive... 189.87.149.23 (talk)NeoStrider —Preceding undated comment added 00:12, 3 December 2009 (UTC).[reply]

Yes, it is possible, you just have to write both SConstruct and CMakeLists.txt, then you can use either CMake or SCons to build. Spidermario (talk) 13:59, 29 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Book propaganda

Is the specific book link really interesting on the page? Think just the open documentation references are valid in this case. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Guaxinim (talk • contribs) 16:15, 24 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I've moved it to being a reference, which I believe is reasonable. I'm not a cmake pro though so if there are better references which should replace it then go ahead... --mcld (talk) 21:36, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Who use it

Are you sure, that Conky a SuperTux use cmake? In their last archives is used autotools.--Dundee5 (talk) 14:56, 29 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

SuperTux does have a CMakeLists.txt, at least in its SubVersion repository. However, I didn't find any for Conky. Spidermario (talk) 11:05, 16 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
