<p class="MsoNormal">I would like to define the _VARIADIC_MAX=10 preprocessor definition for the gtest cmake project, such that when my ExternalProject_Add() compiles gtest, this preprocessor symbol is defined and gtest compiles correctly. I manually tested
that the preprocessor definition works. So how to pass the preprocessor definition though ExternalProject_Add()? Any ideas?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I would like to avoid having to use the PATCH_COMMAND to patch the gtest cmake files.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks for your ideas,<o:p></o:p></p>
