Build

Example build instructions for CMake and Vcpkg. These examples assume that Vcpkg is installed in your home directory. Adjust the paths if necessary.

Vcpkg toolchain

Pass the Vcpkg toolchain file via CMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE.

Windows: -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=%HOMEPATH%\vcpkg\scripts\buildsystems\vcpkg.cmake
Unix systems: -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=$HOME/vcpkg/scripts/buildsystems/vcpkg.cmake

Linux & Mac

$ mkdir build
$ cmake -G Ninja -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=$HOME/vcpkg/scripts/buildsystems/vcpkg.cmake -B build
$ cmake --build build

Windows

PS> mkdir build
PS> cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE="$HOME\vcpkg\scripts\buildsystems\vcpkg.cmake" -B build
PS> cmake --build build --config Release
