Igor Sapego commented on IGNITE-13078:
--------------------------------------
3. I know they are optional, but e.g. autotools would return an error on
attempt to generate Makefile if those directories are missing even if they are
disabled. I hope with CMake this is not the case, but needs to be tested, imo.
I'll do it today.
4. Good. Yes, I've seen mention that it modified.
Yeah, I like that a lot. Though you need to spend some time configuring project
on windows - one needs to set env variables for it to be able to find Boost,
OpenSSL and so on. I'll going to gather all requirements today and comment
about them. I believe, we need to mention them in devnotes.
> С++: Add CMake build support
> ----------------------------
>
> Key: IGNITE-13078
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IGNITE-13078
> Project: Ignite
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: platforms
> Reporter: Ivan Daschinskiy
> Assignee: Ivan Daschinskiy
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 2.9
>
> Time Spent: 10m
> Remaining Estimate: 0h

> Currently, it is hard to build Ignite.C++. Different build process for
> windows and linux, lack of building support on Mac OS X (quite popular OS
> among developers), absolutely not IDE support, except windows and only Visual
> Studio is supported.
> I’d suggest to migrate to CMake build system. It is very popular among open
> source projects, and in Apache Software Foundation too. Notable user: Apache
> Mesos, Apache Zookeeper (C client offers CMake as an alternative to autoconf
> and only option on windows), Apache Kafka (librdkafka - C/C++ client), Apache
> Thrift. Popular column-oriented database ClickHouse also uses CMake.
> CMake is widely supported in many IDE’s on various platforms, notably Visual
> Studio, CLion, Xcode, QtCreator, KDevelop.
