CMakeJuce

This project contains a single CMake file which can be included by Juce projects in order to build them with the project files generated by Introjucer. Similar projects, like cmake-juce attempt to solve this problem by recreating the build targets like Juce does. This project provides CMake with a way to build via the generated project files by Introjucer.

The raison d'être of this project is the ability to use alternative IDEs such as CLion or NetBeans with Juce projects. Since Introjucer does not support CMake as a build target type, this file can allow one to utilize Introjucer without being forced to a particular IDE.

Project setup

First, generate a new Juce project with Introjucer. Then add this project's repository to your Juce project as a submodule under the Builds folder. So an example project structure might look something like this:

/path/to/YourProjectName
├── Builds
│   ├── CMakeJuce <-- This repo
│   ├── Linux
│   ├── MacOSX
│   └── VisualStudio2013
├── CMakeLists.txt
├── YourProjectName.jucer
├── JuceLibraryCode
│   ├── AppConfig.h
│   ├── JuceHeader.h
│   ├── ReadMe.txt
│   └── modules
├── LICENSE
├── README.md
├── Source
│   ├── PluginEditor.cpp
│   ├── PluginEditor.h
│   ├── PluginProcessor.cpp
│   └── PluginProcessor.h

Create the following CMakeLists.txt file in your project's top-level directory:

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8)
project(YourProjectName)

if(${CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME} MATCHES "Darwin")
  add_subdirectory(Builds/MacOSX)
elseif(${CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME} MATCHES "Linux")
  add_subdirectory(Builds/Linux)
endif()

YourProjectName should match the project name which you made in Introjucer. For each platform that you want to build, create a CMakeLists.txt file in that subdirectory (for instance, under Builds/Linux or Builds/MacOSX). It should contain the following:

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8)
include(../CMakeJuce/juce.cmake)

The reason that this is required is that we want the include to come from the same directory as the Introjucer-generated build file. That way, compiler errors will have correct relative paths and be rendered as links in IDEs that support this feature.

Usage

Once you have the initial project set up, point your CMake-supported IDE to the top-level CMakeLists.txt file and everything should work out! This project will generate for you two targets, YourProjectName and virtual_TARGET. Set YourProjectName as the compiler target as the virtual_TARGET is only used to give a target to the IDE for correct indexing of the project's source code.
