Example 3 - Use XIIDM extensions

This example shows how to create a cmake project that uses XIIDM extensions. In this example, we use the EurostagNetworkFactory to create a network. Then, we create an ActivePowerRange extension, attached to the generator GEN. Before exporting the network to an XIIDM file, we register its serializer.

Build

To build this example, you have to build the project passing the -DBUILD_EXAMPLES=ON flag to the configure command. Follow the build instructions

$> cmake --build .
[ 49%] Built target iidm
[ 52%] Built target ext-iidm-static
[100%] Built target iidm-static
[100%] Building CXX object examples/example3/CMakeFiles/example3.dir/example3.cpp.o
[100%] Linking CXX executable example3
[100%] Built target example3

Note that in this example, we link with the static libraries but you can also link with the dynamic libraries. To do so, you have to change the CMakeLists.txt file:

target_link_libraries(example3 PRIVATE iidm ext-iidm)

Run the program

You can run the program we just compile, running the following command:

$> ./example3
Usage: ./example3 <output-file>
