Bug 544662 – cmake-utils.eclass - gentoo_toolchain.cmake should set CMAKE_RC_COMPILER

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Michael Seifert 2015-03-27 13:44:20 UTC]

When cross-compiling a CMake project, cmake-utils.eclass creates an appropriate toolchain file which specifies CC, CXX, and so forth. When compiling for Windows (e.g. x86_64-w64-mingw32 target), CMake needs to know about CMAKE_RC_COMPILER, which is not set in the toolchain file.

Reproducible: Always

Actual Results:  
CMAKE_RC_COMPILER is unset

Expected Results:  
CMAKE_RC_COMPILER should contain the full path to the windres executable.

Created attachment 399876 [details, diff]
cmake-utils.eclass-cmake-rc-compiler.patch

Sets CMAKE_RC_COMPILER, if the KERNEL is "Winnt".

CCing prefix if they have any comment.

Seems like the prefix project does not have any comments :)
