Build dependency libraries with same compiler options as applications
To ensure that the dependency libraries are built with the same compiler options as the applications, you can use build systems like CMake, which allows you to configure the build process for both the dependency libraries and the applications.
Here's an example of how you could use CMake to build the dependencies and applications with the same compiler options:
- Create a CMakeLists.txt file in the root directory of your project.
- Use the
add_subdirectory()
command to add the directories for your dependencies and applications. - In each subdirectory, create a CMakeLists.txt file with the build instructions for that directory. You can use the
add_library()
command to create a library for the dependencies, andadd_executable()
for the applications. - Use the
target_compile_options()
command to set the compiler options for each target in each CMakeLists.txt file.
Here's an example of how the root CMakeLists.txt file could look like:
scsscmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.0)
project(MyProject)
add_subdirectory(Dependencies)
add_subdirectory(Applications)
And here's an example of how the CMakeLists.txt file in the Dependencies directory could look like:
scssadd_library(DependencyLib source1.cpp source2.cpp)
target_compile_options(DependencyLib PRIVATE -Wall -Werror -O2)
And here's an example of how the CMakeLists.txt file in the Applications directory could look like:
scssadd_executable(MyApp main.cpp)
target_link_libraries(MyApp DependencyLib)
target_compile_options(MyApp PRIVATE -Wall -Werror -O2)
This way, when you build your project with CMake, all the dependencies and applications will be built with the same compiler options, ensuring that they are compatible with each other.
