如何在 Linux 上下载、编译和安装 CMake

清华大佬耗费三个月吐血整理的几百G的资源，免费分享！....>>>

CMake is a cross-platform, open-source build system. CMake is a family of tools designed to build, test and package software.

Here are the simple steps to download, configure, compile, and install CMake on a Linux machine. I have tested these instructions on Debian/Ubuntu Linux distributions but they should work on all Linux machines where compilers and make utilities are installed. Please take a look at configuring Ubuntu Linux after installation to configure your Debian/Ubuntu Linux box for the required tools.

Please make sure you check the downloaded file's integrity before unzipping it. '#' (w/o quotes) in front of commands below means you have to run the command as root user (or use sudo instead if your system supports that).

Download:

$ wget http://www.cmake.org/files/v2.8/cmake-2.8.3.tar.gz

Extration of cmake source code from downloaded file:

$ tar xzf cmake-2.8.3.tar.gz
$ cd cmake-2.8.3

Configuration:

If you want to see the available conifuration options, run command below.

$ ./configure --help

In order to configure cmake before installation, run command below.

$ ./configure --prefix=/opt/cmake

We basically instructed the install script to install CMake in /opt/cmake.

Compilation:

$ make

Installation:

# make install

Verification:

After installation without any errors you can verify the installation by running the command below:

$ /opt/cmake/bin/cmake -version

The output should look something like below (depending upon cmake version you are installing).

cmake version 2.8.3
