C++ Example using CMake
=======================
In some situations, developers intend to implement software using the NuttX platform in
a previously set hardware and configuration where it is not possible or allowed to make
changes. In such situations, less contact with the operating source tree is better, where
it is only used for the application.
Some approaches are possible to do that today:
* https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NUTTX/Building+NuttX+with+Applications+Outside+of+the+Source+Tree
* https://www.programmersought.com/article/61604062421/
We have been seen the increase of the use of C++ language in embedded systems application. And
CMake (https://www.cmake.org) is the preferred build system used to build C++ projects. NuttX
support C++ based projects.
Using the 'build as a library' procedure of NuttX, it is possible to build NuttX
applications using C++ language and also the cmake build tool.
This document will show how to reimplement the hellocpp project using this cmake.
Preparation
-----------
#. Base NuttX compilation changes
For this example, load the configuration 'stm32f4discovery:testlibcxx' for building
.. code-block:: console
$ cd nuttx
$ ./tools/configure.sh stm32f4discovery:testlibcxx
In menuconfig, the main points to be changed on a typical NuttX configuration are the following:
* Set RTOS Features -> Tasks and Scheduling -> Application entry point to 'hellocpp_main'
* Build NuttX and generate the export
.. code-block:: console
$ make export
Creating the project
--------------------
#. Create your project file structure
The project structure is organized as follow:
.. code-block:: console
hellocpp/
hellocpp/CMakeLists.txt
hellocpp/cmake/stm32f4discovery.cmake
hellocpp/nuttx-export-10.0.1/
hellocpp/src/CMakeLists.txt
hellocpp/src/main.cpp
hellocpp/src/HelloWorld.h
hellocpp/src/HelloWorld.cpp
The directory 'nuttx-export-10.0.1' is the unzipped content from the file created during
make export procedure done before.

Building
--------
To launch build, you use the cmake procedure:
.. code-block:: console
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake ..
$ make
And finally a bin file will be created to be loaded on the board.
