I am new to CentOS and when I try running cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr I got the following error:
bash: cmake: command not found
Is there something that I am missing and have to installed? I used Yum to search for it like I found the "git" on there to install but I didn't find anything for cmake? Any ideas? Thanks to all in advance!

When I did the following commands it did not find anything for cmake. I have the files to make cmake, but when I try to configure it I get this message:
---------------------------------------------
CMake 2.6-4, Copyright (c) 2007 Kitware, Inc., Insight Consortium
C compiler on this system is: cc
---------------------------------------------
Error when bootstrapping CMake:
Cannot find appropriate C++ compiler on this system.
Please specify one using environment variable CXX.
See cmake_bootstrap.log for compilers attempted.
I tried looking for CXX or anything to do with it but I cant find it anywhere.
you'll need to install the g++-4.3 package (or something like that) and you may also need the gcc (c-compiler installed as well). I don't know what these packages are called in Centos but it should be easy enough for you to find out.

Thank you I will try and see what I find, thank you for your help!
Wow that worked very well thank you so much for your help. I needed the cmake to install LMMS. Its an audio program and when I went to install it it started and then I got this:
CMake Error at /usr/local/share/cmake-2.6/Modules/FindQt4.cmake:1625 (MESSAGE):
Qt qmake not found!
Call Stack (most recent call first):

Rep:
Lmms requires 'qmake-qt4' :
The qt4 supplied by e.g. CentOS 5.3 is too old !
1) Latest version ... if you wish, takes hours (many) to compile : http://www.qtsoftware.com/downloads http://www.qtsoftware.com/downloads/linux-x11-cpp

... > qt-x11-opensource-src-4.5.1.tar.gz , actually 118 MB !

How to delete default tag -D when compiling using CMake?
I am trying to build a project by using CMake on Linux. When I create a library for the compiled project , Cmake by default is adding -Dtarget_EXPORTS option during compilation. This is option is unknown to my compiler.
i.e. g++ -Dtarget_EXPORTS -Wno-error testpgm.cc
Any idea how to remove or suppress this -D tag which is added by default in CMake ??
Thanks in advance
In fact, it's also kind of against the LQ rules
to hijack a thread with a new topic.
Please start a new thread for new questions.
Makes it much easier to get an answer.
