[petsc-users] Building with CMAKE_GENERATOR set

[Deij-van Rijswijk, Menno]

Good morning,

I find that when I set the environment variable CMAKE_GENERATOR to something that is not "Unix Makefiles" (e.g. Ninja) that building of subprojects like METIS fails. METIS gets configured with CMake, and writes out ninja.build build instructions. Then PETSc calls make/gmake to build and it can't find the makefiles because they're not generated. It would be nice if PETSc could handle other build tools supported by CMake, like for example Ninja.

Best regards,


Menno Deij - van Rijswijk
