## Recommended usage : Incorporating cpu_features into a CMake project
|
|
|
|
For API / ABI compatibility reasons, it is recommended to build and use
|
|
cpu_features in a subdirectory of your project or as an embedded dependency.
|
|
|
|
This is similar to the recommended usage of the googletest framework
|
|
( https://github.com/google/googletest/blob/main/googletest/README.md )
|
|
|
|
Build and use step-by-step
|
|
|
|
|
|
1- Download cpu_features and copy it in a sub-directory in your project.
|
|
or add cpu_features as a git-submodule in your project
|
|
|
|
2- You can then use the cmake command `add_subdirectory()` to include
|
|
cpu_features directly and use the `cpu_features` target in your project.
|
|
|
|
3- Add the `CpuFeatures::cpu_features` target to the `target_link_libraries()` section of
|
|
your executable or of your library.
|
|
|
|
## Disabling tests
|
|
|
|
CMake default options for cpu_features is `Release` built type with tests
|
|
enabled. To disable testing set cmake `BUILD_TESTING` variable to `OFF`.
|
|
e.g.
|
|
```sh
|
|
cmake -S. -Bbuild -DBUILD_TESTING=OFF
|
|
```
