> Goal: Extend Apache Thrift's *make cross* approach to the build system.
> Due to growing the field of operating system support, a proper executable
> and library detection mechanism running on as much platforms as possible
> becomes required. The other aspect is simplify the release process and
> package generation process.
> As nice side benefit of CMake is the generation of development environment
> specific solution files(VisualStudio, Eclipse, Xcode, etc. ). => No solution files within source tree.
> We are already building Apache Thrift with CMake for Linux-ARM, Linux-x86, Windows CE and Windows.
> We are in preparation phase for a pull request here:
> https://github.com/siemens/thrift/commits/cmake-master
