This project is illustrating this blog post.
| Build status | Systems / Compilers |
|---|---|
| Linux (clang38 / gcc6) OSX (XCode 8.3 clang) | |
| Windows (Visual Studio 2017 / 2015) |
This is an example of doing a Modern C++ project with CI.
It use basic C++14 syntax, but nothing really complicated.
This project try to follow C++ Core Guidelines whenever its possible.
CMake is the chosen build system using ctest.
| folder | Content |
|---|---|
| /lib | library |
| /lib/src | library sources |
| /lib/include | library includes |
| /lib/test | library test |
| /app | application |
| /app/src | application sources |
| /app/test | application test |
| /third_party | third party software |
cmake -H. -BBuildAuto detect everything.
If you like to set a implicit compiler set the variable CXX=${COMPILER}, for example COMPILER could be gcc, clang and so on.
Auto detect in Windows usually generate a Visual Studio project since msbuild require it, but in OSX does not generate and XCode project, since is not required for compiling using XCode clang.
Specify build type debug/release
# generate a debug project
cmake -H. -BBuild -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug
# generate a release project
cmake -H. -BBuild -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=ReleaseSpecify architecture
# 64 bits architecture
cmake -H. -BBuild -Ax64
# ARM architecture
cmake -H. -BBuild -AARM
# Windows 32 bits architecture
cmake -H. -BBuild -AxWin32Generate different project types
# MinGW makefiles
cmake -H. -BBuild -G "MinGW Makefiles"
# XCode project
