vcpkg_make_install

Build and install a Make-based project.

Usage

vcpkg_make_install(
    [DISABLE_PARALLEL]
    [LOGFILE_ROOT <root-name>]
    [MAKEFILE <makefile-name>]
    [TARGETS <target-name>...]
    [OPTIONS <make-option>...]
    [OPTIONS_RELEASE <make-option>...]
    [OPTIONS_DEBUG <make-option>...]
)

To use this function, you must depend on the helper port vcpkg-make:

"dependencies": [
  {
    "name": "vcpkg-make",
    "host": true
  }
]

Parameters

ADD_BIN_TO_PATH

Adds the configure dependent (debug/)bin directory to the system path. This is useful if configure builds and runs executables with shared dependencies.

DISABLE_PARALLEL

By default, vcpkg_make_install runs make with the -j option to enable parallel building. If your project does not support parallel builds or you encounter issues with it, set this flag to disable parallel building. This causes make to be executed without the -j option, running build steps sequentially.

LOGFILE_ROOT

Specifies the base name for log files generated by the build. Defaults to "make".

MAKEFILE

Specifies the name of the makefile to use. Defaults to "Makefile".

TARGETS

Specifies the targets to pass to make. Defaults to "all;install".

OPTIONS

Additional options to pass to make during the build.

OPTIONS_RELEASE

Additional options to pass to make during the release build.

OPTIONS_DEBUG

Additional options to pass to make during the debug build.

Examples

vcpkg_from_github(OUT_SOURCE_PATH source_path ...)
vcpkg_make_configure(SOURCE_PATH "${source_path}")
vcpkg_make_install()

Remarks

This command replaces vcpkg_install_make().
