[zeromq-dev] malamute CMake & eclipse

[Osiris Pedroso]

Hi Matjaz,

Read the zproject/README.md and look for the section *Tips for modifying
generated files in an already existent project
<https://github.com/opedroso/zproject#toc2-94>*

Seems like every zeromq project that has a project.xml in its home
directory has some portion of its code/scripts automatically generated.
The source of these generated files live in zeromq/zproject project and
they have extension .GSL.

There is another project, imatix/gsl that contains the GSL program that
will use the .GSL files referenced by your target project i.e.
zeromq/malamute/project.xml to generate the output code/scripts for that
process.

I have been trying to undertstand that process of late as well, and I wrote
the script zeromq/zproject/tstgenbld.sh which will apply the current .GSL
files in zeromq/zproject on my disk on several projects (CZMQ, ZYRE and
MALAMUTE), regenerating them, then building and running their automated
tests.

This way, I can automate testing the current build, then testing the
modified build once I drop my modified .GSL files in my zeromq/zproject
disk location.

If you want to make the changes you suggested in your previous email,
provide me with the before and after CMakeLists.txt file you made and I
will help you modifying the generating .GSL to generated your new version
automatically.

Then you can test and if you like it, a submit a PULL REQUEST submitting to
the project.

Hope this helps,
Osiris
