INSTALL CMAKE UPGRADE
To upgrade CMake to a new version released in future, just follow all steps in this guide once more.The installation of 4diac IDE is independent of the operating system. Now you may check the CMake version: cmake -version 3 Upgrade CMake
INSTALL CMAKE INSTALL
If this is your first time to install CMake, to make it easier to execute CMake commands later, please add the path of CMake executable file to system environment variable PATH by commands below: echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/cmake/bin:$PATH"' > ~/.bashrc
We will get the download link of latest stable distribution package from:įirst let us change the directory to system local source folder, then we will download the latest stable CMake binary distribution package by curl command using the link we got: cd /usr/local/srcĪfter CMake binary distribution package is downloaded, run the following two commands to unpack the package, and move it to the program files directory with folder name renamed to “cmake” (/usr/local/cmake): tar -xvf cmake-3.22.2.tar.gz
We recommend to use the Latest Release, which is the version used for examples in this article. This way we can get the latest version installed, and installation files will be isolated from system built-in software libraries, and we do not need to spend too much time compiling the source code.ĬMake has multiple versions, including but not limited to Release Candidate and Latest Release. We will install CMake from generic binary distribution as a compromised choice. Compiling from source supports customization for various functionalities, but you need to manage all the dependencies by yourself. Using package manager is easy and fast, but it is usually not the latest version that installed, and it cannot be customized for additional features. We have three ways to install latest version of CMake: use a package manager (like YUM/DNF) to download and install automatically from custom repositories, or install manually from generic binary distribution, or install manually from source compilation.Īll these ways have pros and cons. Please note that on CenOS 8, CentOS Stream 8 and later versions of CentOS, yum command is a symbolic link to dnf binary and was replaced by dnf command.
We will use yum command for any package related operation. If you are not the root user, please make sure to add “sudo” before each command, or switch to the root user by command below: sudo -s If you need CMake to compile and install software on CentOS, but the CMake version installed by package manager Yum or DNF does not meet the requirement, you can follow this article to quickly install latest CMake in best practices.Ī root user role is required to follow the commands in this article. Problems that you may encounter during compilation are also specified in detail. The full process has been tested as working on CentOS 7, CentOS 8, and CentOS Stream 8.
INSTALL CMAKE HOW TO
We will use the currently latest stable version 3.22.2 of CMake as an example to show how to install CMake on CentOS. CMake is used to control the software compilation process using native platform and compiler-independent configuration files, and generate native makefiles and workspaces that can be used in the compiler environment of your choice. CMake is an open-source, cross-platform family of tools designed to build, test and package software.
