CMake does not configure the library to the project's specifications.

The Cmake related files will no longer be distributed in the ZIP. The CMake related files will be available in Master.

The decision could change in the future if someone steps up to maintain it. CMake has too many open issues, and neither UB and JW have the time or expertise to maintain it.


Here's more of the back story... CMake does not build the library to our specs. We know the specs, but we don't know how to instruct CMake. Sometimes its easy to learn the CMake procedure, other times its not. For example, it was relatively pain free to instruct CMake to stop hiding its output so we could see the build results. The same cannot be said about instructing CMake to use CXXFLAGS when linking.
