36 # export PATH=$QTDIR/bin:$PATH
42 -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX : decide where the program will be install on your computer.
43 -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE : decide which type of build you want. You can chose between "debugfull", "debug", "profile", "relwithdebinfo" and "release". The default is "relwithdebinfo" (-O2 -g).
45 Compared to old KDE3 autoconf options:
47 "cmake . -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=debugfull" is equivalent to "./configure --enable-debug=full"
48 "cmake . -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr" is equivalent to "./configure --prefix=/usr"
