CMake support?

[pierre-aimi]

Would you consider a CMakeLists.txt file in your repo to offer CMake compilation support?

I just used this one to compile on Windows, and it should work without modification on Linux/MacOS I think.

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.1 FATAL_ERROR)

set(CMAKE_C_STANDARD 11)
set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD_REQUIRED on)

project(xxd LANGUAGES C CXX)

file(GLOB SOURCES
    "src/*.c"
)

set(EXE xxd)

add_executable(${EXE} ${SOURCES}

On Windows you need to set up a MSVC environment in a command prompt - e.g. for VS2022 I ran "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Community\VC\Auxiliary\Build\vcvars64.bat"

then it's just

mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. -G Ninja && ninja

Having CMake support would allow us to better integrate xxd

Sure I’d be very happy to support a CMake build. I’ll be absent for the next three weeks or so, which means this will probably wait until then. But when I return, let’s try to get a CMake build running and commited and I’d also like it in a few Cl jobs. Thanks for this suggestion
