Visual Studio構建托管在GitHub中的C ++ / CMake項目

Question

我是“ emacs / [c] make / ninja / clang / bash / linux / macOs”類型的C ++開發人員，他不習慣像Visual Studio這樣的IDE。 我並不是說這兩種方法是好是壞，只是我不知道如何使用IDE。

現在，我需要為高度依賴Visual Studio的基於Windows的客戶端開發C ++項目。

我的理解是Visual Studio 2017內置了對CMake，Ninja和Google Test的支持。 但是，我無法提出一個工作流程，該工作流程使我無法像往常一樣簡單地編寫代碼，將代碼提交到GitHub等，並使我的客戶只是“刷新存儲庫並重建解決方案”。

這是我的問題：克隆C ++ / CMake GitHub存儲庫並在Visual Studio中構建它的絕對最簡單的方法是什么？

作為參考，我創建了以下存儲庫：

https://github.com/arrieta/visual-studio-cmake-test

這就是我使用常規方法構建它的方式：

$ git clone https://github.com/arrieta/visual-studio-cmake-test.git
$ cd visual-studio-cmake-test
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake -G Ninja ../
$ ninja
$ ./app
Welcome to app v0.0.1
Hello, world!

為了我的一生，我無法在Visual Studio中想出這樣簡單的方法（不是工具不好，這只是我的無知）。 我創建了一個“解決方案”，然后是“項目”，然后是“回購”，我有太多選擇，我不知所措。

任何幫助表示贊賞。

Answer 1

您可以從CMake定位到Visual Studio生成器，然后使用CMake的生成工具模式。 例如

cmake -G "Visual Studio 15 2017" ..\\

和

cmake --build . --target ALL_BUILD --config Debug -- /nologo /verbosity:minimal /maxcpucount

全部來自您的構建目錄。 這使用MSBuild作為本機構建工具，並從命令行構建整個解決方案。

有關用於安裝或測試的CMake構建工具模式的更多參數，請參見此文章。 CMake + MSVC構建工具2015-調用cmake后該怎么辦？

並參閱CMake文檔以了解構建工具模式https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.10/manual/cmake.1.html
