Plus

A Small Utility App For C/CPP and CMake users.

Prerequisites

• vcpkg
• cmake
• premake

Building with cmake and vcpkg

    git clone https://github.com/Eshanatnight/plus.git

    cd plus

    mkdir build

    cd build

    cmake -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE="<path>/<to>/<vcpkg>/scripts/buildsystems/vcpkg.cmake" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -G<generator> -S.. -B .

If MSVC

    cmake --build . --config Release

Building with Premake

Download the premake5 executable. Then use

    premake5 <generator>

Using Other Compilers to Build

As of the current MSVC 26.05.22, Currently for full support for std::ranges we need to use /std:c++latest which is directly not accessible from cmake.

For MSVC we have to set the standard to 23. (This is reflected in the CMakeLists.txt file) Other compilers might need to modify the CMakeLists.txt file to set the standard to the latest or even the latest c++20.
