All descriptions of how to use the application and what individual files are called was made using a sample library called Logger. File names that contain loggers would accordingly be called differently in your project.
First a little overview over the workflow with the tool.
You can find details about what each field represents in the section: Input elements
- Download the latest template files. This will download the contents from the template library repository.
- Fill out the fields. If you write the library name, some other fields will get filled automaticly. You can change them if you want.
- Here you can specify how to build the library and what dependencies it needs.
- If your project is uses QT, you can select which modules you need.
- If your project needs external libraries as dependency, you can select from a predefined list of dependencies.
- To generate the new Project, click on the Save as new button. This opens a file dialog. Change to the location in which you want the Library generated in. If you select: "...AnyFolder/Libraries" then the Library will be generated in: "...AnyFolder/Libraries/Logger" With the root CMakeLists.txt file in the folder "Logger"
- Done, you can now open your cmake project using Visual Studio.
