CMake uses a particular generator by default for the host environment. Alternatively, a generator can be selected via the command line option -G. For example, generator Unix Makefiles creates files for make. [4] CMake does not support custom generators without modifying the CMake implementation.
Maintainability is primarily affected by the role the artifact fulfills. The role can be either practical or symbolic. In the earliest stages of software development, artifacts may be created by the design team to serve a symbolic role to show the project sponsor how serious the contractor is about meeting the project's needs.
For #include guards to work properly, each guard must test and conditionally set a different preprocessor macro. Therefore, a project using #include guards must work out a coherent naming scheme for its include guards, and make sure its scheme doesn't conflict with that of any third-party headers it uses, or with the names of any globally visible macros.
The C++ Standard Library is based upon conventions introduced by the Standard Template Library (STL), and has been influenced by research in generic programming and developers of the STL such as Alexander Stepanov and Meng Lee. [4] [5] Although the C++ Standard Library and the STL share many features, neither is a strict superset of the other.
An include directive instructs a text file processor to replace the directive text with the content of a specified file. The act of including may be logical in nature. The processor may simply process the include file content at the location of the directive without creating a combined file. Different processors may use different syntax.
In computing, a library is a collection of resources that is leveraged during software development to implement a computer program. Commonly, a library consists of executable code such as compiled functions and classes, or a library can be a collection of source code. A resource library may contain data such as images and text.
Maybe changing the wording of "CMake is not a build system but rather it's a build-system generator." to something more like ""CMake is not a build system but rather it generates another system's build files"? peterl 17:13, 15 March 2021 (UTC) @Peterl: Yeah, it would be nice to make it clear this way. Feel free to make changes.
In computer programming, a standard library is the library made available across implementations of a programming language. Often, a standard library is specified by its associated programming language specification , however, some are set in part or whole by more informal practices of a language community.
