Not able to disable conan install method

[dhruvkakadiya]

In readme, seems minor typo.

replace cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release by cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCONAN_false to not use Conan. Hope your the dependencies are found on your Linux.

which can be

replace cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release by cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCONAN=false to not use Conan. Hope your the dependencies are found on your Linux.

Even though correcting that, cmake toolchain try to find conan so it's trying to install this library through conan.. so seems like disabling conan not working as expected.

While digging through root level CMakeLists.txt file, below can be found so probably that needs to be taken under CONAN macro which worked fine for me. Also didn't understand use case of empty CONAN_EXPORTED.

if (CONAN_EXPORTED)
else()
    if (NOT EXISTS ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/conan_toolchain.cmake)
        include(${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/cmake/conan.cmake)

        conan_cmake_autodetect(settings)

        conan_cmake_install(PATH_OR_REFERENCE ${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/conanfile.py
                PROFILE ${CONAN_PROFILE}
                PROFILE_BUILD ${CONAN_PROFILE}
                BUILD missing
                SETTINGS ${settings}
                )
    endif()
endif()

include(${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/conan_toolchain.cmake)

which can be

if (CONAN)
    if (NOT EXISTS ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/conan_toolchain.cmake)
        include(${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/cmake/conan.cmake)

        conan_cmake_autodetect(settings)

        conan_cmake_install(PATH_OR_REFERENCE ${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/conanfile.py
                PROFILE ${CONAN_PROFILE}
                PROFILE_BUILD ${CONAN_PROFILE}
                BUILD missing
                SETTINGS ${settings}
                )
    else()
        include(${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/conan_toolchain.cmake)
    endif()
endif()

Hi, Thanks I will fix this part when conan is not used.

Done. You can try the lastest commits, should work without Conan.
