-Work is a on going to get this build system functional.
-Here are some features of Cmake;
-CMake is an extensible, open-source system that has many powerful features.
-Those features include:
-    * Supports complex, large build environments. CMake has been proven in several large projects (KDE, ParaView, SecondLife)
-    * Generates native build files (e.g., makefiles on Unix; workspaces/projects on MS Visual C++). Therefore, standard tools can be used on any platform/compiler configuration.
-    * Powerful system introspection abilities including the ability to find installed include files, libraries and executables. Also the ability to test the compiler for supported features.
-    * Integrated testing system called CTest.
-    * Integrated packaging system called CPack.
-    * Easy integration with CDash and Dart dashboard servers.
-    * Powerful scripting language with simple syntax.
-    * Supports in-place and out-of-place builds. Multiple compilation trees are possible from a single source tree.
-    * Can be easily extended to add new features.
-    * CMake is open source, under a liberal BSD license.
-    * CMake operates with a cache designed to be interfaced with a graphical editor. The cache provides optional interaction to conditionally control the build process.
-    * Ability to create Mac OSX Frameworks and Application Bundles.
-    * Supports adding complex custom rules to the build.
