Wt

i can't edit my post

so, i reply the right thing again:

i use cmake 2.8.2 to build wt-3.1.4 on Windows and Fedora linux

i found some problem:

1. on Windows(vc9):

wt-3.1.4/examples/CMakeLists.txt, see the bold code:

...

MACRO (WT_ADD_EXAMPLE name)

IF (${EXAMPLES_CONNECTOR} STREQUAL \"wtisapi\")

LIST (INSERT ${ARGV} 1 \"SHARED\")

ADD_LIBRARY(${ARGV})

SET_TARGET_PROPERTIES(${name}

PROPERTIES LINK_FLAGS

"/EXPORT:HttpExtensionProc /EXPORT:GetExtensionVersion /EXPORT:TerminateExtension")

ELSE (${EXAMPLES_CONNECTOR} STREQUAL \"wtisapi\")

ADD_EXECUTABLE(${ARGV})

ENDIF (${EXAMPLES_CONNECTOR} STREQUAL \"wtisapi\")

TARGET_LINK_LIBRARIES(${name} ${EXAMPLES_CONNECTOR})

ENDMACRO (WT_ADD_EXAMPLE)

...

perhaps the ${ARGV} is readonly in cmake 2.8.2

so the "SHARED" can't be inserted into ${ARGV}

the all examples in wt.sln(for vc9) will configured as static lib

change the code to this:

SET (TEMPLIST ${ARGV})

LIST (INSERT ${TEMPLIST} 1 \"SHARED\")

ADD_LIBRARY(${TEMPLIST})

the wt.sln will be OK

2. on Fedora linux(gcc, apache-2.2.16, mod_fcgi, wtfcgi...)

/wt-3.1.4/CMakeLists.txt, find this code:

SET (RUNDIR \"/var/run/wt\" CACHE PATH
\"Default path for wt session management \"
\"(only used by FCGI connector; not relative to CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX)\")

this code will cause a VERY long name directory at examples' runtime, such as:

"/var/run/wt; CACHE PATH ;Default path for wt session management ;(only used by FCGI connector; not relative to CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX)"

but NOT expected "/var/run/wt"

change the code to

SET (RUNDIR \"/var/run/wt\" CACHE PATH
\"Default path for wt session management (only used by FCGI connector; not relative to CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX)\")

cause the comment only one pair of "", will solve the problem

Is it cmake-2.8.2's bug?

it should be:

LIST(INSERT TEMPLIST 1 SHARED)

not

LIST(INSERT ${TEMPLIST} 1 SHARED)

i don't know the difference. but it really works differently.

Hey,

Thanks for letting us know and helping us resolve these build annoyances.

It appears that this has already been fixed in latest git.

/wt-3.1.4/CMakeLists.txt, find this code:

*SET (RUNDIR \"/var/run/wt\" CACHE PATH*
* \"Default path for wt session management \"*
* \"(only used by FCGI connector; not relative to CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX)")*

this code will cause a VERY long name directory at examples' runtime, such as:

"/var/run/wt; CACHE PATH ;Default path for wt session management ;(only used by FCGI connector; not relative to CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX)\"

but NOT expected "/var/run/wt"

It certainly looks like it is changed behaviour, but I guess it makes sense. We will apply your fix. Thanks !
