Summary0003371: configuring slicer on mac is super slow
Description

The cmake step repeatedly prints lines like:

-- names
-- other versions 3.3;3.2;3.1;3.0;2.7;2.6;2.5;2.4;2.3;2.2;2.1;2.0;1.6;1.5

and then pauses. This pause is multiple minutes when it gets to this step:

-- Configuring Loadable module: MultiVolumeExplorer [qSlicerMultiVolumeExplorerModuleExport.h]
-- Configuring SEM CLI module: BRAINSFit
-- Configuring SEM CLI module: BRAINSResample
-- Configuring SEM CLI module: BRAINSResize
-- Configuring SEM CLI module: BRAINSROIAuto
-- Configuring SEM CLI module: BRAINSDemonWarp
-- Configuring SEM CLI module: VBRAINSDemonWarp
-- Configuring SEM CLI module: BRAINSTransformConvert
-- Configuring SEM CLI module: DWIConvert
-- Configuring SEM CLI module: BRAINSCreateLabelMapFromProbabilityMaps
-- names
-- other versions 3.3;3.2;3.1;3.0;2.7;2.6;2.5;2.4;2.3;2.2;2.1;2.0;1.6;1.5

Is there any update on this? It makes it pretty hard to work... Should I try a different version of cmake?

I am using cmake version 2.8.11.20130831-g7a9a8

Thanks for trying to build Slicer using the latest version of CMake. By using the latest stable release of CMake 2.8.11.2, you should not have any issue.

That said, we really need to report back to the CMake folks so that they can fix the problem before the coming release CMake 2.8.12.

Does the problem still happen using the latest CMake release candidate. See http://www.kitware.com/blog/home/post/550

Could you create a bug on CMake bug tracker reporting the problem ?
See http://www.cmake.org/Bug/my_view_page.php

Thanks

Solution: Use CMake 2.8.12-rc3 or greater

On the platform described below, I was able to reproduce the problem using CMake 2.8.11.20130831-g7a9a8 but NOT using CMake 2.8.12-rc3

I used the following line to configure:

/Volumes/Dashboards/Support/CMake\ 2.8-11.20130831-g7a9a8.app/Contents/bin/cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:STRING=Release -DSlicer_USE_PYTHONQT_WITH_TCL:BOOL=OFF ../Slicer

and

/Volumes/Dashboards/Support/CMake\ 2.8-12-rc3.app/Contents/bin/cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:STRING=Release -DSlicer_USE_PYTHONQT_WITH_TCL:BOOL=OFF ../Slicer

Much better performance with

$ cmake --version
cmake version 2.8.11.2
