I am trying to use ccache with CMake. I have placed symlinks named gcc, g++ and c++ in /usr/local/bin. If I run make, add some change to CMakeLists.txt that does not affect the compiled files (add unused library just to force make build all the targets) and re-run make, everything is recompiled as if there was no ccache. However, if I re...

What would be the best way to install (distribute) dynamic libraries in Mac OSX using CMake/Cpack ?

Hello all, I have a project whose artifacts are two dynamic libraries, let's say libX.dylib and libY.dylib (or .so for linux distributions). There are no executables.
