To initialise project from this repo

• Copy all files/directories from of project-with-* directory to the new directory
• In ./CMakeLists.txt change project name from stub to your project name
• In all *.cpp *.hpp files change namespace from stub to your namespace

Conan pre 2.0 with Clion

The dependencies are managed by conan. Before compilation:

• ensure that you have conan installed
• install all the dependencies to appropriate directories. For example if you are using CLion you will:

  conan install --install-folder cmake-build-debug . --build=missing
  conan install --install-folder cmake-build-release . --build=missing
  

Conan 2.0 with Clion

• Prepare conanfile.txt according to Conan documentation, for example:

[requires]
nlohmann_json/3.11.2

[generators]
CMakeDeps
CMakeToolchain

• Install Conan dependencies, as in example below. These commands are also provided as a shell script project/install_conan.sh.

conan install . --output-folder=cmake-build-debug --build=missing --profile=debug
conan install . --output-folder=cmake-build-release --build=missing --profile=release

• In Clion Settings -> Build, Execution, Deployment -> CMake -> CMake Options add the following options for each profile:
  • -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=conan_toolchain.cmake
  • -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release or -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug
