Build

A CMake configuration file is provided in order to build a static library and the associated documentation. A typical usage of CMake may be:

mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
cmake --build .

On a Linux system, the Makefile will generate a static library libblob.a.

cmake --build . --target doc will generate the documentation with DoxyGen.
