[Trilinos-Users] does an "official" FindTrilinos.cmake exist? (Trilinos-Users Digest, Vol 72, Issue 11)

[Perschbacher, Brent M]

Riccardo,
  Trilinos does support the find_package call in cmake. Instead of relying
on a FindTrilinos.cmake file though when you configure/build/install
Trilinos there will be a TrilinosConfig.cmake file created(and installed
with Trilinos) that find_package will use to determine whether it found
Trilinos. 

As for good, well I'd like to think it is, but I'm sure there is room for
improvement. There is some documentation for using find_package inside of
your project at:

http://trilinos.sandia.gov/Finding_Trilinos.txt

There is also an example of a project that uses find_package(Trilinos ...)
in Trilinos/demos/buildAgainstTrilinos which is a good example of how to use
all the variables that will be defined.

If you have any questions or suggestions about using find_package for
Trilinos please let me know.

Brent
