How to make CMake not forget the command-line parameters

[Thiago Macieira]

Is there a way to make CMake not forget the parameters I give it in the 
command-line?

Every time I modify one CMakeLists.txt file, the values I had passed in 
the command-line are reset to their defaults. Automake/Autoconf 
had "config.status" that remembered those values, but I can't find the 
equivalent for CMake.

I had this in CMakeCache.txt:
$ grep CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER CMakeCache.txt
CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER:FILEPATH=/opt/teambuilder2/bin/g++

Then I modified one CMakeLists.txt file and ran make:
$ make -j25
make: Entering directory `/home/tjmaciei/obj/kde4/KDE/kdelibs/khtml'
-- Found Qt-Version 4.1.3-snapshot-20060502
-- Building kdelibs...
[...]
$ grep CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER CMakeCache.txt
CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER:FILEPATH=/usr/bin/c++

This means, of course, that 25 instances of the C++ compiler made my 
machine VERY sluggish.

PS: Why does CMake search for "c++" instead of "g++"?
