vcpkg_build_cmake

Build a cmake project.

Usage:

vcpkg_build_cmake([DISABLE_PARALLEL] [TARGET <target>])

Parameters:

DISABLE_PARALLEL

The underlying buildsystem will be instructed to not parallelize

TARGET

The target passed to the cmake build command (cmake --build . --target <target>). If not specified, no target will be passed.

ADD_BIN_TO_PATH

Adds the appropriate Release and Debug bin\ directories to the path during the build such that executables can run against the in-tree DLLs.

Notes:

This command should be preceeded by a call to vcpkg_configure_cmake(). You can use the alias vcpkg_install_cmake() function if your CMake script supports the "install" target

Examples:

• zlib
• cpprestsdk
• poco
• opencv
