Automatically generate subprojects from thirdparty folders? #111

Open GPMueller opened 4 years ago

GPMueller commented 4 years ago

Currently, we automatically add "thirdparty" as include directory. I believe it would be better to, in each project (i.e. recursively), automatically scan the following folder names for subproject folders:

"thirdparty"
"3rdparty"
"external"

One question: would we want to allow the main clang-build.toml to deactivate this and configure all targets in one file or force config files to be present in the thirdparty folders?
