CMake files generated in $NUPIC not $NUPIC/build

[breznak]

since recent update cmake files ignore the current directory from which cmake is called and are created in $NUPIC

cd $NUPIC/build
cmake ..

files created in $NUPIC

I noted some changes in variable names for project output dir, maybe related?

Certainly! I prefer "standardize" these names. Please see this (my first comment): numenta/nupic.core-legacy#47

quote:

They are generated by default on
nupic.core/build/release folder, however any user could change its
destination using cmake -DPROJECT_BUILD_RELEASE_DIR=… or cmake -DPROJECT_BUILD_TEMP_DIR=… command line.

I mean the Cmake file changed it's behavior:

cmake $NUPIC Build files have been written to: /home/nupic/nupic-source nupic@nupic-vm:~/nupic-source/build/release$ ls nupic@nupic-vm:~/nupic-source/build/release$ pwd /home/nupic/nupic-source/build/release
it ignores that I;m in build/release

CMakeLists has
Build dir: ${PROJECT_BIN_DIR}
(which evaluates to $NUPIC) and is never used in the cmakefile.

to clarify, I'm talking about the config files cmake generates (eg Makefile), not the resulting files from compilation.

This was discussed ans solved at #751 . Closing...
