   MakeNL & CMake ?

   Hi All!   
      
     I'm involved with a number of projects that are and/or need to be    
   cross-platform and I've been looking into build systems that could be used to    
   upgrade/improve them that is usable on as many systems as possible. (Autotools    
   is not very cross platform...)  CMake is available for use on any system    
   for which there is a C++ compiler, and creates "native build environment" for    
   the system it is running on; I.E., makefiles for a Linux system, or MSVC    
   project/workspaces, etc. (And can also be set up to do cross compiles, which    
   will be useful for me...)  Besides CTest mentioned below, it also includes    
   CPack which can be used to create install archives; include windows    
   installers.   
      
     I'll be investigating it in any case, and I will look into using it for    
   MakeNL if no one else does.

      A start has been made for that, at least, but there is still an issue of    
   what to use for a test framework that would be usable on all systems.    
   Something I'll be lookingt at is CTest, which is testing framework included    
   with CMake.
