catkin build with cmake file and flags

Hi,

I have many packages that rely on each other. With "catkin build", all packages are compiled and linked in the right order. Now I have two questions:

  1. If I add some CMAKECXXFLAGS arguments in the CMakeLists.txt file of the top-level package, are these flags used for all other packages that are included by this top-level package?

  2. Is it possible to append a "myconfig.cmake" file to the "catkin build" command that is used for the whole compilation? It should just set some CMAKECXX_FLAGS arguments for all packages.

Thanks in advance!

a bit of a non-question, as you should not edit the catkin_ws/src/CMakeLists.txt file.

I mean the top-level package. That one that holds the main function...
