Description
Learn the fundamental CMake script commands to create an organized system for your programming project.
CMake is a scripting language used to assist in organizing multiple source files within a project. CMake is a cross-platform building language, which means you can transfer this knowledge outside of this class. Although I am using C++ and a Windows OS system, the language functions the same for other languages and OS Systems.
In this class we will start from scratch with a “Hello World” example code. Then build it into a fully organize and professional looking build system. Source files will be given their respective files and the same will go for header (C++ related) files and the executable file.
I will provide files needed to follow along, if you are also using the C++ language and a Windows OS system. By following along, with the video it will help with remembering the commands provided in this video.
We will go through a total of 9 CMake script commands.
3 of them will be basic script commands that all CMake Scripts should contain, the other 6 will help in organizing our build system.
