        # googletest-starter-project-separate-folders

This demonstrates how to use [Conan.io](http://docs.conan.io/en/latest/introduction.html) with [cmake](https://cmake.org/documentation/) to create multiple single-configuration Visual Studio 2017 solution files.

See also https://github.com/claremacrae/googletest-starter-project, which shows a much better way of using Visual Studio with Conan and CMake.

## Usage

To use:

1. Clone or download this repo

1. Make sure you have Visual Studio 2017 installed

1. Make sure you have CMake installed

1. Make sure you have Conan installed

1. Run `build_and_test.bat`

1. You can also either of the following solution files in Visual Studio, but you must be careful to only build the supported configurations:

    * `build64-release\googletest-starter-project.sln`

        * MinSizeRel, Release, RelWithDebInfo work

        * Debug gives linker errors - see below

    * `build64-debug\googletest-starter-project.sln`

        * Debug works

        * Release, MinSizeRel, RelWithDebInfo all give linker errors - see below

## Things to note

* This uses conan's [`cmake`](http://docs.conan.io/en/latest/reference/generators/cmake.html) generator, which can only generate a single configuration at a time

* Don't be tempted to use the [`visual_studio`](http://docs.conan.io/en/latest/reference/generators/visualstudio.html) generator - it is for the case where you are hand-maintaining the contents of your solution files and projects, and just want Conan to manage 3rd-party dependencies.

* When building inside Visual Studio, if you get any of the following errors, it means you are building a configuration that differs from the one the .sln file was set up for, that is, you have opened the debug .sln, and create a release build, or vice versa.
