+== How to build expat with cmake (experimental) ==
+
+The cmake based buildsystem for expat works on Windows (cygwin, mingw, Visual
+Studio) and should work on all other platform cmake supports.
+
+Assuming ~/expat-2.1.0 is the source directory of expat, add a subdirectory
+build and change into that directory:
+~/expat-2.1.0$ mkdir build && cd build
+~/expat-2.1.0/build$
+
+From that directory, call cmake first, then call make, make test and
+make install in the usual way:
+~/expat-2.1.0/build$ cmake ..
+-- The C compiler identification is GNU
+-- The CXX compiler identification is GNU
+....
+-- Configuring done
+-- Generating done
+-- Build files have been written to: /home/patrick/expat-2.1.0/build
+
+If you want to specify the install location for your files, append
+-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/your/install/path to the cmake call.
+
+~/expat-2.1.0/build$ make && make test && make install

+
+For Windows builds, you must make sure to call cmake from an environment where
+your compiler is reachable, that means either you call it from the
+Visual Studio Command Prompt or when using mingw, you must open a cmd.exe and
+make sure that gcc can be called. On Windows, you also might want to specify a
+special Generator for CMake:
+for Visual Studio builds do:
+cmake .. -G "Visual Studio 10" && vcexpress expat.sln
+for mingw builds do:
+cmake .. -G "MinGW Makefiles" -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=D:\expat-install
+ && gmake && gmake install
