Conan package

[mjako78]

Hi, I'm trying to use your lib inside my project which is based on conan package manager.

Are you planning to release your work to the conan package center?

I have some difficulties to use embed cwalk downloaded directly via CMakeLists ExternalProject

Hi @mjako78, sounds interesting - I will have a look at that!

Hi @mjako78,

I have requested access to be able to add a package and was told it would take 1-2 weeks. Since you were trying to use CMake's ExternalProject, FetchContent might be a workaround for you in the meantime.

Here's an example for CMake 3.16+:

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.16)
project(myproject)
include(FetchContent)
FetchContent_Declare(cwalk
  GIT_REPOSITORY git@github.com:likle/cwalk.git
  GIT_TAG v1.2.2
)
FetchContent_MakeAvailable(cwalk)
add_executable(myproject myproject.c)
target_link_libraries(myproject cwalk)

or if you want to support CMake 3.11+:

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.11)
project(myproject)
include(FetchContent)
FetchContent_Declare(cwalk
  GIT_REPOSITORY git@github.com:likle/cwalk.git
  GIT_TAG v1.2.2
)
FetchContent_GetProperties(cwalk)
if(NOT cwalk_POPULATED)
  FetchContent_Populate(cwalk)
  add_subdirectory(${cwalk_SOURCE_DIR} ${cwalk_BINARY_DIR})
endif()
add_executable(myproject myproject.c)
target_link_libraries(myproject cwalk)

And then you should be able to include and use cwalk without any further steps.

Hi @likle,

thanks for your reply.
I'm trying with a CMake module taken from here, named DownloadProject.
I will try also the solution that you provided.

cwalk is now in the conan center index: https://conan.io/center/cwalk/1.2.2/
