This folder contains a collection of toolchains definition in order to
support cross compilation. The naming scheme is the following:
This directory contains a collection of toolchain definitions for cross
compilation, currently limited to compiling Win32 binaries on Linux.
The toolchain file naming scheme is as follows:
host-system-compiler.cmake
to use this at the time you run the initial cmake command use the
following parameter
-DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=./toolchains/XXX-XXX-XXX.cmake
which maps to file in this folder.
To use these files you add a special parameter when configuring the source tree:
cmake -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=<toolchain-file> .
For example, to use the Debian GNU/Linux MinGW package, run CMake like this:
cmake -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=CMake/linux-i586-mingw32msvc.cmake .
