[ptxdist] Building from a subfolder

[ptxdist] Building from a subfolder

Hello All

I am writing a ptxdist make file for the dlib library for our project and have the following problem:

Dlib supports a cmake build, but there is no CMakeLists.txt in the top level directory. One is supposed to call cmake with a subfolder of the extracted archive to build the library.

So my question is: Is there a way to make ptxdist call cmake with a subfolder of the unpacked source?

I tried setting DLIB_DIR in dlib.make to the subfolder, but that would break the unpacking. I also tried to add a simple CMakeLists.txt to the root folder, but that changes the cmake variable CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR to the top level directory which breaks the cmake build.

I use ptxdist 2015.02.0

Cheers Florian

<PKG>_SUBDIR := something

PTXdist uses $(<PKG>_DIR)/$(<PKG>_SUBDIR) for cmake and make. By default
<PKG>_SUBDIR is empty and the toplevel directory is used.

Works like a charm. Thanks, you made my day!
