The motivation for GSS CMake is to create a common set of CMake configuration files and utilities for developers. This will simplify development and maintenance, but more importantly will initiate the same build across Greensea projects.
GSS CMake Installation
gss_cmake is a package located in the GSS aptly repository. To install use:
apt-get install gss_cmake
If your machine is not configured to use the GSS aptly repository see the following article: Package management
GSS CMake Maintenance
The source and package creation script are located in gssrepos under:
gssrepos/repos/gss_cmake
GSS CMake Use
After installation the gss_cmake package will be installed into /usr/local/share/cmake/gss_cmake. An example of using gss_cmake to build a device interface is as follows:
1: 2: 3: 4: 5: 6: |
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8) # edit the project here set(project_name gss_device SET(CPACK_PACKAGE_DESCRIPTION_SUMMARY "GSS Device") #Call the standard device cmake build include(/usr/local/share/cmake/gss_cmake/gss_device-config.cmake) |
All other required CMake calls are handled in the gss_device-config.cmake configuration file.
