Hi Bill, As others have mentioned, you shouldn't run cmake directly, and especially shouldn't do so outside the build directory. The way that we invoke cmake from make is a little clunky, but it ensures a common entry point to every package. Geoff Biggs has done some work on getting rid of our use of make, replacing it with a portable Python system, but that's not quite ready yet. To your original question, 'make clean ' should prepare a package for initial checkin. brian.

I would like a build target like $ rosmake --dist package_name that removes bin/ build/ CMakeCache.txt CMakeFiles cmake_install.cmake and sets the contents of Makefile to "include $(shell rospack find mk)/cmake.mk" Does something like this already exist? _______________________________________________ ros-users mailing list ros-users@code.ros.org https://code.ros.org/mailman/listinfo/ros-users
