BCMPackage¶

bcm_find_package¶

This works the same as cmake’s find_package except in addition, it will keep track of the each call to bcm_find_package in the project. Functions like bcm_package and bcm_boost_package will include these dependencies automatically in cmake’s package config that gets generated.

bcm_package¶

This setups a non-boost package in cmake. This is similar to bcm_boost_package but with extra flexibility as it does not have boost specific conventions. This function creates a library target that will be installed and exported. In addition, the target will be setup to auto-link for the tests.

<package-name>

The name of the package. This is both the name of the library target and the cmake package config that can be used with find_package(<package-name>).

VERSION <version>¶

Sets the version of the package.

VERSION_HEADER <header>¶

This will parse the version from a header file. It will parse the macros defined in the header as <prefix>_<package-name>_VERSION_MAJOR, <prefix>_<package-name>_VERSION_MINOR, and <prefix>_<package-name>_VERSION_PATCH. The prefix by default is the package name in all caps, but can be set using the VERSION_PREFIX option.

VERSION_PREFIX <prefix>¶

This sets the prefix that macros used to define the version will use.

SOURCES <source-files>...¶

The source files to build the library.

INCLUDE <directory>...¶

This sets the include directories for the package. Each include directory will be installed.

NAMESPACE <namespace>¶

This is the namespace to be added to the exported targets.

bcm_boost_package¶

This setups a boost package in cmake. It creates a library target that will be installed. The target will be exported and it will be in the boost:: namespace. In addition, the target will be setup to auto-link for the tests.

<package-name>

The name of the boost package. The corresponding cmake package config can be used with find_package(boost_<package-name>).

VERSION <version>¶

Sets the version of the package.

VERSION_HEADER <header>¶

This will parse the version from a header file. It will parse the macros defined in the header as BOOST_<package-name>_VERSION_MAJOR, BOOST_<package-name>_VERSION_MINOR, and BOOST_<package-name>_VERSION_PATCH.

SOURCES <source-files>...¶

The source files to build the library.

DEPENDS <boost-dependencies>...¶

This specifies internal boost dependencies, that is, dependencies on other boost libraries. The libraries should not be prefixed with boost_ nor boost::.
