How to specify the options when using cmake?

http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/7.7/server/mariadb.html I build MariaDB 10.0.17 with cmake-3 , libevent-2 , python-2 ... Dependencies all are in dir /opt/..

But , how can I specify the modules dir for MariaDB ?

`` cmake-3... -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/mariadb-10.0.17 -DINSTALL_DOCDIR=share/doc/mariadb-10.0.17 -DINSTALL_DOCREADMEDIR=share/doc/mariadb-10.0.17 -DINSTALL_MANDIR=share/man -DINSTALL_MYSQLSHAREDIR=share/mysql -DINSTALL_MYSQLTESTDIR=share/mysql/test -DINSTALL_PLUGINDIR=lib/mysql/plugin -DINSTALL_SBINDIR=sbin -DINSTALL_SCRIPTDIR=bin -DINSTALL_SQLBENCHDIR=share/mysql/bench -DINSTALL_SUPPORTFILESDIR=share/mysql -DMYSQL_DATADIR=/srv/mysql -DMYSQL_UNIX_ADDR=/srv/mysql/mysqld.sock -DWITH_EXTRA_CHARSETS=complex -DWITH_EMBEDDED_SERVER=ON -DTOKUDB_OK=0 .. ``

I try to add -DWITH_LIBEVENT=/opt/libevent-2.0.22-stable -DWITH_BOOST=/opt/boost_1_58_0 ... I got some messages to tip me the options are invalid .

Answer

As far as boost is concerned, try BOOST_ROOT or run cmake --help-module FindBoost for a complete list. I don't see where MariaDB uses libevent nowadays.
