Building, testing, and packaging modular software with modern CMake

What is this book about?

CMake is cross-platform, open-source software for managing the build process in a portable fashion. This book features a collection of recipes and building blocks with tips and techniques for working with CMake, CTest, CPack, and CDash.

This book covers the following exciting features:

• Configure, build, test, and install code projects using CMake
• Detect operating systems, processors, libraries, files, and programs for conditional compilation
• Increase the portability of your code
• Refactor a large codebase into modules with the help of CMake
• Build multi-language projects
• Know where and how to tweak CMake configuration files written by somebody else
• Package projects for distribution
• Port projects to CMake
