CMake allows users to create "out-of-source" builds, which means build files are created in a separate directory, and many variants can be maintained. To use out-of-source builds, simply create a new directory and pass the path to source to <code>cmake</code>. | CMake allows users to create "out-of-source" builds, which means build files are created in a separate directory, and many variants can be maintained.

CMake build configuration files (<tt>CMakeCache.txt</tt>) are designed to be edited and generated. A GUI has been baked in since the beginning of the CMake project, which allows editing of configuration settings (like <tt>configure</tt> parameters). | |||
For Ubuntu, the package <tt>cmake-curses-gui</tt> needs to be install to use the <tt>ccmake</tt> GUI. | |||
