Utilities to help develop C++/CMake projects.
Description
-----------
This main goal of this project is to make it easier to build (potentially,
cross-compile) Boost and CMake projects using different toolsets.
It does so by providing a set of command-line utilities that allow users to
download/build Boost & use it in a CMake project in a consistent way — no
matter the compiler or the target platform.
Installation
------------
* Python: [PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/cmake-common/)
* Arch Linux: [AUR](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/cmake-common)
Alternatively, you can simply checkout this repository or use it as a git
submodule.
All scripts provided by the PyPI package are thin wrappers around the `project`
package modules:
| Script | Module
| -------------- | ------
| boost-download | `python -m project.boost.download`
| boost-build | `python -m project.boost.build`
| project-build | `python -m project.build`
Toolsets
--------
Supported platform/build system/compiler combinations include, but are not
limited to:
| Platform | Build system | Compiler |
| -------- | -------------- | ----------- |
| Linux | make | Clang |
| | | GCC |
| | | MinGW-w64 |
| Windows | make \[1\] | Clang \[2\] |
| | | MinGW-w64 |
| | msbuild | MSVC |
1. Both GNU make and MinGW mingw32-make.
2. clang-cl is supported by Boost 1.69.0 or higher only.
All of those are verified continuously by the [Boost (toolsets)] and [Examples
(toolsets)] workflows.
For a complete list of possible `--toolset` parameter values, pass the
`--help-toolsets` flag to either `boost-build` or `project-build`.

[Examples (toolsets)]: https://github.com/egor-tensin/cmake-common/actions/workflows/example_toolsets.yml
Usage
-----
### Boost
Download & build the Boost libraries in a cross-platform way.
$ boost-download 1.72.0
...
$ boost-build boost_1_72_0/ filesystem program_options
...
Pass the `--help` flag to view detailed usage information.
### CMake project
Build (and optionally, install) a CMake project.
$ project-build --configuration release --install path/to/somewhere --boost path/to/boost -- examples/simple build/
...
$ ./path/to/somewhere/bin/foo
foo
Pass the `--help` flag to view detailed usage information.
Additional tools
----------------
* [project-format] — `clang-format` all C/C++ files in the project.
* [project-ctest-driver] — wrap an executable for testing with CTest;
cross-platform `grep`.

[project-ctest-driver]: docs/ctest-driver.md
Examples
--------
I use this in all of my C++/CMake projects, e.g. [aes-tools] and [math-server].
