cmake bacongui-gtk

[bigbass]

Hello


I am testing cmake builds
they are working correctly

*however if you are a new bacon user
and stumbled here the official bacon package is here for your OS
www.basic-converter.org/


with that notice said here we go
with cmake builds


--------------------------------------------------------------------------
cmake building bacongui-gtk
sourceforge.net/p/bassix-gtk3-webkit-browser/wiki/Cmake-bacongui-gtk/

version gets updated on the wiki page
easier to maintain and less forum space needed
for downloads and images

Thanks Joe,

That works as it should on my Mageia Linux!

Best regards

Hello Peter

Thanks for testing on your Mageia Linux good to see it works

another test that your bacongui-gtk app is clean code!

Joe



-----------------------------------
I tested with clang on debian also


some extra options that weren't listed in the README.txt
make help

The following are some of the valid targets for this Makefile:
... all (the default if no target is provided)
... clean
... depend
... install/strip
... install/local
... bacongui-gtk
... uninstall
... rebuild_cache
... list_install_components
... edit_cache
... install
... src/bacongui-gtk.bac.o
... src/bacongui-gtk.bac.i
... src/bacongui-gtk.bac.s




and if we were using clang

this works

sudo make install/strip

because clang doesn't
have the -s option like gcc for strip

Hello

I removed the setup script and wrote the code in cmake
now its 100% pure cmake
which makes it more portable and reduced code

I tested ninja and code lite builds also with cmake
they are easy to add if needed
it is in the README


now the commands are

cmake .

cmake --build .

and if needed
sudo make install


removed file to save space on the forum CMAKE_BACONGUI_GTK-4.3-004.tar.gz

update to tun off verbose now looks cleaner

Hello

this is starting to get fun



I added CPack that generates code to package
many formats I added support for debian *.deb packages
and RPM *.rpm packages in the CMakeLists.txt


special note for rpm you can build rpm packages
on a debian distro but you have to install the rmpbuild tools
I did that and built rpm packages but turned it off
with a test condition by default but if you need it its there

# manual hack here you can set it to build with a "yes" or "no"
SET(RPM_BUILD "no")

the result debian package is bacongui-gtk_4.3.0_armhf.deb
the result RPM package is bacongui-gtk-4.3.0-1.armv7l.rpm

the screen shot shows the new command cpack




removed file to save space on the forum
CMAKE_BACONGUI_GTK-4.3.0.tar.gz



I will do this later for bacongui-fltk and bacon
to get more practice with CPack

Hello

these are the finals
I went back and made bacon the primary package
which will install the docs and syntax and icons

bacongui-gtk and bacongui-fltk
will only install the binaries and desktop files

this way you can safely uninstall bacongui-gtk or bacongui-fltk
and not have any missing files for bacon

all three packages now have debian package makers and rpm
if needed


I am happy we have cmake to install and build packages
and it was fun doing that for bacon and bacon apps

*I spent a lot of time building packages for slackware for many years
and any way you want to look at it doing it in cmake was much easier

removed file to save space on the forum
CMAKE_BACONGUI_GTK-4.3.0.tar.gz

I am testing cmake builds
they are working correctly on the raspberry pi3

*however if you are a new bacon user
and stumbled here the official package is here

with that notice said here we go
with cmake

sourceforge.net/projects/bassix-gtk3-webkit-browser/files/CMAKE_BUILDS/CMAKE_BACONGUI_GTK-4.3.1.tar.gz/download
