hunter_config

• Usage example

This command will choose which version of package to build exactly:

hunter_config(
    ${package}

    # Version from "project/${package}/hunter.cmake"
    VERSION 1.2.8-hunter

    # Arguments that will be forwarded to CMake build command (optional)
    CMAKE_ARGS OPTION1=OFF OPTION2=ON
)

OPTION1=OFF and OPTION2=ON will be used to build your third-party package. This is similar to ExternalProject_Add command sub-option CMAKE_ARGS. In the case above Hunter-engine will build this package something like this:

> cmake -H. -B_builds -DOPTION1=OFF -DOPTION2=ON
> cmake --build _builds --target install

Instead of using VERSION you can create source archive by packing Git submodule:

hunter_config(${package} GIT_SUBMODULE "3rdparty/${package}")

Or packing Current Git repository itself:

hunter_config(${package} GIT_SELF)

Or specifying URL/SHA1 of package explicitly:

hunter_config(${package} URL "..." SHA1 "...")

All variants support specifying extra:

• VERSION (e.g. VERSION 4.5.6)
• CMAKE_ARGS (e.g. CMAKE_ARGS A=4 "B=5;6")
• CONFIGURATION_TYPES (e.g. CONFIGURATION_TYPES Release MinSizeRel)
• KEEP_PACKAGE_SOURCES (see HUNTER_KEEP_PACKAGE_SOURCES)
