Hi Cmake users,
I currently use GNU makefiles for my projects and they port easily to
most unix platforms. But that's not the case with Visual Studio /
Windows. So I'm looking at moving my projects over to use CMake.
I've started looking at CMake and the makefiles generated by it are
recursive makefiles. Now, non-recursive makefiles are considered to
better than recursive ones. And the reasons why they are better is
explained in the paper "Recursive Make Considered Harmful".

So my question is, is there a way to generate non-recursive makefiles
using CMake or is there a way to extended CMake to do this?
Thanks,
