[cmake] Basic Tutorial

Basic Project

The most basic porject is an executable built from source code file.

cmake_minimum_required (version 2.6)
project (Tutorial)
add_executable(Tutorial tutorial.cxx)

#include <stdio.h>

int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
  fprintf(stdout, "hello world");
  return 0;
}

project (Tutorial)

# add the binary tree to the search path for include files
# so that we will find TutorialConfig.h
include_directories ("${PROJECT_BINARY_DIR}")
include_directories ("${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/MathFunctions")

add_subdirectory (MathFunctions)

# add the executable
add_executable (Tutorial tutorial.cxx)
target_link_libraries (Tutorial  MathFunctions)

include_directories: to find the header files

add_executable: to create executable

target_link_libraries: add the library to the executable
