I wonder if this even works. AFAIK it doesn't (hence the compiler-specific binary installers for Qt, for instance). No idea yet, I have no overview about which compilers support what, so far only tested with my local gnu compiler to have an test example how the respective values/macros need to be propagated :) Sounds promising then we could be able to leave complicated logic to cmake time REPOSITORY R240 Extra CMake Modules REVISION DETAIL https://phabricator.kde.org/D23789 To: kossebau Cc: chehrlic, dfaure, cgiboudeaux, kde-frameworks-devel, kde-buildsystem, LeGast00n, GB_2, bencreasy, michaelh, ngraham, bruns
