QCustomPlot fetch with cmake

qcustomplot-fetch is a tool that allows you to obtain the QCustomPlot library from the official website using CMake during project configuration. This project simplifies the process of downloading and integrating QCustomPlot, making it more convenient and automated.

Installation

To start using QCustomPlot-Fetch, follow these steps:

1. Add the QCustomPlot-Fetch repository as a submodule in your project using the add_subdirectory command:

   add_subdirectory(qcustomplot-fetch)

2. If you want to specify the desired version of QCustomPlot, set the QCUSTOMPLOT_VERSION variable:

   set(QCUSTOMPLOT_VERSION "2.1.1")

   or

   cmake -DQCUSTOMPLOT_VERSION="2.1.1" .

   Alternatively, you can specify the url for downloading QCustomPlot entirely through the QCUSTOMPLOT_URL variable.

3. If you need demonstration examples, set the QCUSTOMPLOT_DEMO variable:

   set(QCUSTOMPLOT_DEMO ON)

   You can find examples in the demo directory.

Usage Example

A CMake example for your project:

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.21)

# Add your target and link it with QCustomPlot
