CMake Configuration Options

This Page describes the different configuration options of the CMake configuration. Such configuration options can be modified from CMake-aware IDEs (e.g., Visual studio) or by the command line at configure time (e.g., cmake . -DOPTION=VALUE).

Features

• FLAVOUR: The kind of VM to generate. Possible values: StackVM, CoInterpreter. Default: CoInterpreter
• ALWAYS_INTERACTIVE: Configure the VM to be interactive by default. Default FALSE. Note that a non-interactive VM still contains the UI that can be activated using a Pharo image parameter ./pharo Pharo.image --interactive
• FEATURE_FFI: Configure and compile support for FFI in the VM. Default TRUE
• FEATURE_SOCKETS: Configure and compile support for sockets in the VM. Default TRUE

Build Options

• GENERATE_SOURCES: Generates the sources from Slang. Default TRUE
• GENERATED_SOURCE_DIR: Directory for the generated Slang sources. If GENERATE_SOURCES is FALSE then pre-generated sources should be set at this location.
• FEATURE_COMPILE_GNUISATION Use gcc gnu extensions to compile the VM. Default TRUE
• FEATURE_COMPILE_INLINE_MEMORY_ACCESSORS: Use inline memory accessors instead of macros. Required for MSVC compilation. TRUE
• WITHOUT_DEPENDENCIES: Do not download nor build dependencies at build time. Default FALSE.
