Use a regular expression for CMake find_path hints

Question

Using CMake's find_path, I'm actualy searching some file in the /usr/share/arduino folder, with a very simple find_path:

find_path(ARDUINO_SDK_PATH
      NAMES lib/version.txt hardware libraries
      PATH_SUFFIXES share/arduino
      DOC "Arduino Development Kit path.")

The problem is that it seems on some distributions (for example, Gentoo), the Arduino SDK is packaged, and installed in /usr/share/arduino-version. In fact, I try to search in all the folders beginning with "arduino", in /usr/share. I tried to add a * at the end of the PATH_SUFFIXES, but that's not working.

What should I do to make it work?

Answer 1

Take a look at file(GLOB ...) command.
