在為交叉編譯工程寫cmake腳本時(shí)，可以在腳本里修改默認(rèn)編譯器的值。這種方法會(huì)碰到下面兩個(gè)問題
1 CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER_VERSION的值仍然是默認(rèn)編譯器的版本
例如级野，下面是一個(gè)經(jīng)過簡化后的CMakeLists.txt：
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.10)
project(main C CXX)
include(CMakePrintHelpers)
cmake_print_variables(CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER)
cmake_print_variables(CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER_VERSION)
set(CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER "/usr/bin/g++-4.8")
cmake_print_variables(CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER)
cmake_print_variables(CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER_VERSION)
set(CMAKE_VERBOSE_MAKEFILE ON)
add_executable(main main.cpp)
cmake+make的輸出如下：
mdy@mdy-pc:~/TestCmake/build$ cmake ../

可以看到哟玷，set(CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER "/usr/bin/g++-4.8")命令之后，默認(rèn)編譯器已經(jīng)由g++-5.5修改為了g++-4.8烁巫，且編譯階段確實(shí)也使用的是g++-4.8。但是此時(shí)CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER_VERSION的值仍然是5.5宠能。
2 和add_subdirectory一塊使用造成cmake死循環(huán)
例如亚隙，頂層CMakeLists.txt中的內(nèi)容如下：
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.10)
project(main C CXX)
set(CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER "/usr/bin/g++-4.8")
add_subdirectory(sub)
子目錄sub/CMakeLists.txt中只有一行：
project(sub C CXX)
cmake就會(huì)陷入死循環(huán)：
mdy@mdy-pc:~/TestCmake/build$ cmake ../

You have changed variables that require your cache to be deleted.
Configure will be re-run and you may have to reset some variables.
The following variables have changed:
CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER= /usr/bin/c++

解決方法
問題1：
- 在命令行里修改默認(rèn)編譯器的定義。例如：
cmake ../ -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER="/usr/bin/g++-4.8"
- 使用CMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE违崇。例如：
cmake ../ -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=../toolchain.cmake
問題2：
- 在子目錄的CMakeLists.txt里阿弃，不使用project(...)命令
但是有個(gè)更簡單的方法，可以解決以上所有問題：
在第一個(gè)project命令前羞延，修改默認(rèn)編譯器的定義渣淳。
例如：
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.10)
set(CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER "/usr/bin/g++-4.8")
project(main C CXX)
add_subdirectory(sub)
add_executable(main main.cpp)
