Build Instructions

This document contains the instructions for building this repository on Linux, macOS and Windows.

  1. Requirements
  2. Building Overview
  3. CMake

Requirements

  1. CMake >= 3.17.2
  2. C++ >= c++17 compiler. See platform-specific sections below for supported compiler versions.
  3. Python >= 3.8

Building Overview

The following will be enough for most people, for more detailed instructions, see below.

cmake -S . -B build/ -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -D UPDATE_DEPS=ON
cmake --build build --config Debug

Recommended setup for developers

cmake -S . -B build/ -D VUL_WERROR=ON -D BUILD_TESTS=ON  -D UPDATE_DEPS=ON -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug

Unit Tests

cd build/
ctest -C Debug --parallel 8 --output-on-failure

CMake

Warnings as errors off by default!

By default VUL_WERROR is OFF

The idiom for open source projects is to NOT enable warnings as errors.

System package managers, and language package managers have to build on multiple different platforms and compilers.

By defaulting to ON we cause issues for package managers since there is no standard way to disable warnings until CMake 3.24

Add -D VUL_WERROR=ON to your workflow. Or use the dev preset shown below which will also enabling warnings as errors.
