Hi Michele,
If you look into CMake ML history you'll find many discussions concerning
the ABSOLUTE vs RELATIVE path for generated build systems.
CMake had once an option for trying that, the support has been removed:
https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.7/variable/CMAKE_USE_RELATIVE_PATHS.html
So basically you cannot ask generate relative paths.
See:
https://cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ#Why_does_CMake_use_full_paths.2C_or_can_I_copy_my_build_tree.3F

I am trying to use the Eclipse Generator to create a project to be exported to \
Eclipse. Everything works fine, but when I look at the generated .cproject and \
.project I see that all paths are absolute, like for instance:<br> <br>
<buildArguments>-E chdir \
"/home/portolan/my_project/Opt<wbr>ional_Libs/eclipse_build/Serve<wbr>r" \
"/usr/bin/cmake" -P \
"CMakeFiles/ATE_Loopback_Serve<wbr>r.dir/cmake_clean.cmake"</<wbr>buildArguments><br>
<br>
<br>
This is not really good because I would like to copy my project to another machine \
where I do not have /home/portolan/.<br> <br>
So I have two questions: Can I ask cmake to<br>
<br>
- generate relative paths instead of absolute?<br>
<br>
- copy the sources locally to the Eclipse project, rather than use the external \
ones?<br> <br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
<br>
<br>
