There are a few different ways of installing/reusing mp::inplace_string in your project

Copy

mp::inplace_string is a standalone header-only library without any additional dependencies. It can be simply copied to your source tree and used as a regular header file.

cmake

To use mp::inplace_string as a cmake imported library exported as cmake target via cmake configuration files following steps may be done.

cmake install

mkdir build && cd build
cmake ../src -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=<your_cmake_installation_dir> <your_cmake_configuration>
cmake --build . --target install <your_cmake_configuration>

To use such cmake target in your project it is enough to add following line to your CMakeList.txt file

find_package(inplace_string CONFIG REQUIRED)

and configure it with

cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=<your_cmake_installation_dir> <your_cmake_configuration>

cmake + conan

To use mp::inplace_string with cmake via conan it is enough to:

• add following remote to your local conan instance

conan remote add conan-mpusz https://bintray.com/mpusz/conan-mpusz

• add following dependency to your conanfile.txt or conanfile.py files:

requires = "inplace_string/0.0.3@mpusz/stable"

Full build, unit testing and installation

In case you would like to build all the code in that repository and run all unit tests before installation you can perform any of the following actions

conan

conan create <username>/<channel> --build=missing <your_profile_and_settings>

cmake

1. Manually install gtest with the same configuration to your preferred CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX directory (e.g. "~/local").

For example you can download googletest sources from github and build them with:

mkdir build && cd build
cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=<your_cmake_installation_dir> <your_cmake_configuration>
cmake --build . --target install <your_cmake_configuration>

2. Build, test and install mp::inplace_string

mkdir build && cd build
cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=<your_cmake_installation_dir> <your_cmake_configuration>
cmake --build . <your_cmake_configuration>
ctest <your_ctest_configuration>
cmake --build . --target install <your_cmake_configuration>

cmake + conan

mkdir build && cd build
conan install .. <your_profile_and_settings>
cmake .. <your_cmake_configuration>
cmake --build .
ctest
conan export -p .. <username>/<channel>
