CMake: specifying build toolchain

Question

Very new to CMake, and so far I\'m finding it to be extremely helpful. I have a set of custom libraries that I would like to build for multiple platforms using cross-compilation

Have a look here: basically, you define a "toolchain file" that sets things like the system name, paths to compilers and so on. You then call cmake like so:

cmake /path/to/src -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=/path/to/toolchain/foo-bar-baz.cmake
