• Builtin variables and shell

  2016-07-18

  xmake

  xmake  shell  builtin-variables  pkg-config

  xmake provides the grammar: $(varname) for supporting builtin variable.

  .e.g

  add_cxflags("-I$(buildir)")
  

  It will translate this variable to the real value when building.

  -I$(buildir) => -I./build
  

  We can also use these variables in the custom scripts.

  target("test")
      after_build(target)
          print("build ok for $(plat)!")
      end
  

  And the output result is

  build ok for macosx!

• How to build a simple project quickly

  2016-07-16

  xmake

  xmake  build  project  hello

  We create an empty console project first:

  $ xmake create -P ./hello
  
  create hello ...
  create ok!👌
  

  And xmake will generate some files:

  $ cd ./hello
  $ tree .
  
  .
  ├── src
  │   └── main.c
  └── xmake.lua
  

  It is a simple console program only for printing hello xmake!

  $ cat ./src/main.c 
  
  #include <stdio.h>
  int main(int argc, char** argv)
  {
      printf("hello xmake!\n");
      return 0;
  }
  

  The content of xmake.lua is very simple:

  $ cat xmake.lua 
  
  target("hello")
      set_kind("binary")
      add_files("src/*.c")

• Batch checking library functions

  2016-07-16

  xmake

  xmake  check  batch  function

  xmake provides some api, which can detect whether exist some library functions.

  
  target("test")
  
      -- checks some libc functions from the header files: wchar.h and stdlib.h
      add_cfuncs("libc", nil,         {"wchar.h", "stdlib.h"},            "wcscat",
                                                                          "wcsncat",
                                                                          "wcscpy",
                                                                          "wcsncpy",
                                                                          "wcslcpy",

                                                                          "wcsstr",

                                                                          "wcsncmp",
                                                                          "wcsncasecmp",
                                                                          "wcstombs",
                                                                          "mbstowcs")
  
      -- checks the interfaces: pthread_mutex_init, pthread_create in the pthread
      -- the first argument is the library alias name
      add_cfuncs("posix", nil,        "pthread.h",                        "pthread_mutex_init", "pthread_create")
