WIP: ENH: add cmake support for main library and example 6 #64

Closed dfreese closed 6 years ago

dfreese commented 6 years ago

I wanted to see if you were open to adding CMake support for xraylib. The current pull request builds the library as well as the C++ example 6. Obviously, there is more work to be done for the different bindings and tests, but this would allow it to be used from CMake's external project functionality, which can be quite useful.

Hi David,

I am afraid I will have to close this PR: I just really don't like CMake, and I don't ever want it any of my projects. 😄

Perhaps one day I will port the build system to meson, but there is no urgency really as everything builds properly on all platforms I need it to with the current autotools setup.

Best,

Tom

Sounds good. No need to change something that's working. Also, I'm sorry, it sounds you had a traumatic experience with CMake. 😆
