A quick-and-easy build system for simple C++ projects. This includes GTest and some examples, so that one can get started right away with building and compiling their library or project.

This library assumes the following is installed:

• CMake >3.5
• g++
• ninja

To compile the project, simply run the provided configuration script and then your generator/compilation tool. For example, if this library is in the path at "{REPO}", and you are using g++ as a compiler and ninja as your generator, the command to build is:

mkdir build && \
cd build && \
{REPO}/scripts/run_cmake_config.sh ${REPO} && \
ninja .

One can also input the desired compiler and generator to the script:

{REPO}/scripts/run_cmake_config.sh ${REPO} ${COMPILER} ${GENERATOR}

There are example test suites provided. After compilation, you can run the example and src/calculator/test/CalcTest executables to see the tests running.

To run a very basic build system which you can use immediately (with few modifications) as the start for a new project, check out the bare_bones branch. It contains the minimum structure required of a build system, as well as a distinct README for donwloading the build code quickly.
