代码中的gcc std选项和链接器选项

Question

I switch between so many projects and IDEs a lot. They run each project with default options of IDE. For example

g++ test.cpp

I know make file can solve the problem. But it is not IDE friendly way. I am thinking if there is any way to impose option

-std=c++11

In the code rather than in calling g++.

The same problem with linker. I want to tell the linker in the code that I want to link to armadillo library

-larmadillo

Maybe setting a prepossessing command could solve the problem. Is there any solution for it?

Answer 1

Have you tried CMake ? With this you can create compiler and IDE independent makefiles and then generate the makefiles/project files for the environment of your choise. You can freely script it so you can set certin swithces for gcc and other for vc++ or clang.

You can also use it if you want to create different build configurations.
