Building
In mid-September 2021 Bespoke moved to CMake rather than Projucer for builds. The prescription to build Bespoke on all platforms is
git clone https://github.com/awwbees/BespokeSynth # replace this with your fork if you forked
cd BespokeSynth
git submodule update --init --recursive
cmake -Bignore/build
cmake --build ignore/build --parallel 4This will produce a release build in ignore/build/BespokeSynth_artefacts.
On Windows, the above cmake commands make Visual Studio project files in ignore/build which you can open and use directly
rather than the last step. Some windows systems also require the -A x64 argument to force 64 bit.
On macOS if you would like to use Xcode, replace the second command with cmake -Bignore/build -GXcode
and the ignore/build directory will contain xcode project files which you can use. Finally, the CMake file has a set
of options to enable other build features which are documented in the file.
