The latest version of this document lives in the vcpkg repo.
This function has been deprecated in favor of vcpkg_cmake_configure
from the vcpkg-cmake port.
Configure CMake for Debug and Release builds of a project.
vcpkg_configure_cmake(
SOURCE_PATH <${SOURCE_PATH}>
[PREFER_NINJA]
[DISABLE_PARALLEL_CONFIGURE]
[NO_CHARSET_FLAG]
[GENERATOR <"NMake Makefiles">]
[OPTIONS <-DUSE_THIS_IN_ALL_BUILDS=1>...]
[OPTIONS_RELEASE <-DOPTIMIZE=1>...]
[OPTIONS_DEBUG <-DDEBUGGABLE=1>...]
)
Specifies the directory containing the CMakeLists.txt

By convention, this is usually set in the portfile as the variable SOURCE_PATH
.
Indicates that, when available, Vcpkg should use Ninja to perform the build. This should be specified unless the port is known to not work under Ninja.
Disables running the CMake configure step in parallel. This is needed for libraries which write back into their source directory during configure.
This also disables CMAKE_DISABLE_SOURCE_CHANGES.
Disables passing utf-8
as the default character set to CMAKE_C_FLAGS
and CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS
.
This is needed for libraries that set their own source code's character set.
Specifies the precise generator to use.
This is useful if some project-specific buildsystem has been wrapped in a cmake script that won't perform an actual build.
If used for this purpose, it should be set to "NMake Makefiles"
.
