Hi,

thank you for the patch, but I'm worried about how cmake can find the respective UseEigen3.cmake and Eigen3Config.cmake files?

cheers,

Gael

Hi,

Here is a patch to add cmake config files.

This way eigen would be easily used through another cmake project:
you can now write find_package(Eigen3 NO_MODULE), ie without embedding a FindEigen3.cmake module.

Here's the trick, find_package can swith to 'config' mode and look  for a file called "<name>Config.cmake" or "<lower-case-name>-config.cmake" for each name specified, in

<prefix>/(lib/<arch>|lib|share)/cmake/<name>*/, that's where I told cmake to install them.

See for yourlself:
