root-schema

Super-basic structure for compiling some code using ROOT libraries

Usage

This is a simple CMake skeleton for code linked against ROOT (also built with CMake) and a very simple library. It should a jumping off point for implementing your own code as this does nothing.

Things to Know

When using this, there are a few things and default assumptions to consider and tweak in the CMakeLists.txt:

  • When you setup the project, it uses the $CLICOLOR_FORCE environment variable to force compilers to emit coloured output (useful for some build systems like ninja)
  • It assumes you're using .cxx as file extension, it can be changed in line 31 and 36
  • It assumes you want to compile every source file in the /src directory, if not, delete line 31 and replace ${LIBRARY_SOURCES} in the line below with the explicit files (that's a safer approach but less convenient)
  • Optimisation flag is set to -O2 in line 8, so consider the usual caveats that come with optimisation flags and tune to your liking

This is mostly cobbled together from code snippets floating around the internet, modified to suit my needs. Key resources were:
