I'm wanting to setup my CMakeLists.txt file so that it can generate the .clang_complete file required by the vim plugin clang_complete.
Ordinarily, you would do this by passing a parameter to the python script it supplies with the compiler and all of the parameters for compilation. Note that I am omitting the actual directory cc_args.py is in to save on space.
cc_args.py gcc test.c -o test -I~/IncludeDirs/
You can also do this during the make phase...
make CC='cc_args.py gcc' CXX='cc_args.py g++'
However, I am unsure of how to (if it is possible to) set this up within a CMakeLists.txt file. It's really annoying to have to type this in every time I want to setup clang_complete. The reason why I want to do it this way, is because I have multiple projects that I use a custom script to build the CMakeLists.txt file, so having to write a script for each one or manually place a generic one is a step I'd like to avoid.
I've tried a couple of things that have so far have come up with errors.
I've tried setting CMAKE_CC_COMPILER and CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER to lines similar to the first i.e. "cc_args.py g++". The errors that come up here say that It can't find the compiler (which is understandable).
The next thing I tried was setting the Compiler variables just to the cc_args.py and adding a flag for the actual compiler: suffice to say, that failed horribly. CMake said that it couldn't compile a test program (considering the script isn't a compiler, and the tests don't use the flags I set, I'm not surprised at this).
So without writing any other external scripts that require moving around, is there anyone that can think of a way that can do this?
