Status update on the cmake conversion:
- we have cmake builds working on all supported systems (el6, el7, ubuntu 18.04 LTS, macos 10.13, 10.14)
- I am happy with the result - for example, include file dependancies work much better now
- we are still fixing a few problems where the cmake build is different from the old make build (mfe.o, mlogger/rmlogger, etc)
- until all of these problems are straightened out, we cannot finalize the instructions for writing experiment makefiles (do we have to use -lmfe or
we can keep the old mfe.o)
After everything is finalized, I hope to post a short guide for converting experiment makefiles to the new system.
The next release of MIDAS (midas-2019-06 series) will be the first C++ midas and cmake will be the primary build system.
