Compiling REFramework

Necessary prerequisites

A C++23 compatible compiler is required. Visual Studio 2022 is recommended. Compilers other than MSVC have not been tested.

CMake is required.

Compiling

Clone the repository

SSH

git clone [email protected]:praydog/REFramework.git

HTTPS

git clone https://github.com/praydog/REFramework

Initialize the submodules

git submodule update --init --recursive

Set up CMake

Command line

cmake -S . -B build ./build -G "Visual Studio 17 2022" -A x64 -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
cmake --build ./build --config Release

Keep in mind that not supplying a target will build multiple targets, when you may only need one of them.

For example, to build only the RE2 target, you can use the following command:

cmake --build ./build --config Release --target RE2

VSCode

  1. Install the CMake Tools extension
  2. Open the REFramework folder in VSCode
  3. Press Ctrl+Shift+P and select CMake: Configure
  4. When "Select a kit" appears, select Visual Studio Community 2022 Release - amd64
  5. Select the desired build config (usually Release or RelWithDebInfo) near the bottom of the window
  6. Select the desired build target near the bottom of the window, otherwise all targets will be built
  7. You should now be able to compile REFramework by pressing Ctrl+Shift+P and selecting CMake: Build or by pressing F7

Batch script

In the root of the repository there is a build_vs2022.bat script that will build all targets in Release mode.
