[4diac-dev] Exported functionblock files and CMakeLists.txt

["Ernst Blecha" <ernst.blecha@xxxxxx>]

Good evening!

As I was working with the exporter a lot during the last weeks, I
stumbled across one thing over and over again: the dreaded
CMakeLists.txt.
As this is a manual step in between runtime and ide there is quite some
chance to get into trouble.

The attached file is almost a drop-in-and-forget CMakeList.txt. It takes
the directory name as a module name, and adds all .cpp and .h files for
compilation. There are still some rough edges (e.g. the description
field does not get updated when the file-list changes, automatic
regeneration of cmake-files might be problematic,...)


Now i wonder: Has anyone come up with a better solution? Is anybody
interested in such a solution? Does this break with someones setup?


Best regards,
Ernst Blecha
