xsd-cmake-externalproject

Prerequisites

Linux distribution with:

• cmake >= 3.10
• gcc >= 8
• make, bash
• autotools (e.g. autotools-dev, autoconf packages on Ubuntu)

How to build

Use standard CMake configuration and build commands: cmake DIR and cmake --build DIR, where DIR is the root directory. The resulting xsd binary will be in DIR/xsd.

What will be built

xsd and its dependencies: build, libcutl, cli, libxsd-frontend. libcutl is built as a static library by default, using the libcutl.sh heredoc input. cli is using the install directory of libcutl and its build information. xerces-c is built as static library without network and ICU. libxsd-frontend is built as static library and depends on libcutl and xerces-c. xsd depends on everything and is built as a binary.

Reasoning behind this project

This is for all who use CMake during the build process. Code Synthesis has decided to create build and then build2 and has never supported CMake.
