From 69692922cf1da8998aa76758c32400b73e3a73ad Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: NeroBurner Date: Sun, 23 Oct 2022 21:45:16 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Update CMake usage in README build instructions CMake 3.14.0 released in March 2019 [1] added the command line config options `-S ` and `-B ` and the build argument `--build ` [2]. These options are universally valid independent of the build system used (`make`, `nmake`, `ninja`, `MSBuild`,...), making the provided CMake commands more generic. As reference Ubuntu 20.04 ships the CMake 3.16.3 [3] version. - [1] https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/-/tags/v3.14.0 - [2] https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.14/release/3.14.html#command-line - [3] https://packages.ubuntu.com/focal/cmake Signed-off-by: NeroBurner --- README.md | 10 ++++------ 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) diff --git a/README.md b/README.md index 06b300e4c..38cb45c15 100644 --- a/README.md +++ b/README.md @@ -15,12 +15,10 @@ with your computer. #### :memo: Step by step instructions -##### Clone the repo and create build directory +##### Clone the repo ``` $ git clone https://github.com/nextcloud/desktop.git $ cd desktop -$ mkdir build -$ cd build ``` ##### Compile and install @@ -33,14 +31,14 @@ $ cd build ##### Linux & Mac OS ``` -$ cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/nextcloud-desktop-client -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -$ make install +$ cmake -S . -B build -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/nextcloud-desktop-client -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug +$ cmake --build build --target install ``` ##### Windows ``` -$ cmake -G "Visual Studio 15 2017 Win64" .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$USERPROFILE\nextcloud-desktop-client -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug +$ cmake -S . -B build -G "Visual Studio 15 2017 Win64" -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$USERPROFILE\nextcloud-desktop-client -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug $ cmake --build . --config Debug --target install ```
