This brings a serious problem: … Read more
1. Background CMake is a product derived from the development of several toolkits (VTK) by Kitware and some open-source developers, ultimately forming a system and becoming an independent open-source project. Its official website is cmake.org, where you can find more information about CMake. It is a cross-platform build tool that can describe the build process … Read more
Link: https://ukabuer.me/blog/more-modern-cmake/ For C/C++ developers, managing projects often becomes quite tricky when it comes to complex third-party dependencies, especially when cross-platform development is required. CMake, as a cross-platform build process management tool, provides mature solutions for finding and introducing third-party dependencies, creating build systems, testing programs, and installation. By writing a CMakeLists.txt file once and … Read more

Book Giveaway at the End Part.1 How Many Pitfalls Have You Encountered in C/C++ Builds? For those involved in C/C++ development, have you ever faced frustrating build failures? A project builds perfectly in your development environment, but fails in another environment. Or perhaps an open-source project throws an error when you try to build it … Read more
Handling files and paths is a frequent task in any programming language. In C++, we used to rely on platform-specific APIs (such as CreateFile on Windows or open in POSIX) to accomplish this. This approach was not only cumbersome but also required consideration of cross-platform compatibility issues. The good news is that with the introduction … Read more
The Internet of Things (IoT) can be roughly divided into four layers: the perception layer, network layer, device management layer, and application layer. Among these, the **perception layer** most vividly reflects the characteristics of IoT. The perception layer consists of various sensors, protocol conversion gateways, communication gateways, and smart terminals. Most of these terminals are … Read more
CMake and Make are both software build systems that involve converting source code into executable programs. Both CMake and Make are tools designed to automate the build process, helping developers save time and effort. Below is a brief introduction to their differences. 1. How Does Make Work? Controls the generation of executable files and other … Read more
Introduction: Through previous studies, we have mastered the basic knowledge of CMake and C++. Although CMake is cross-platform, sometimes the source code is not entirely portable. To ensure that our source code can be cross-platform, configuring and/or building the code according to different platforms is an essential part of the project build process. ✦ Detecting … Read more
