Added a
build_with
member function to Config to allow for feeding in custom cc::Build configurations (both C and C++). This makes it particularly convenient, for instance to integrate cmake builds with the cxx-build crate, which produces cc::Build configs.For instance, we may build C++ code with cxx with cmake using:
This is useful when integrating cxx with existing projects that already use CMake.
I tested this particular workflow in the
hdkrs
crate, which builds a cxx layer between the Houdini C++ API (which uses CMake) and Rust.
