Load this module in a CMake project with: .. code-block:: cmake include(CheckCXXSourceRuns) Commands ^^^^^^^^ This module provides the following command: .. command:: check_cxx_source_runs Checks once whether the given C++ source code compiles and links into an executable that can subsequently be run: .. code-block:: cmake check_cxx_source_runs( ) The C++ source supplied in ```` must contain at least a ``main()`` function. The result of the check is stored in the internal cache variable specified by ````. If the code builds and runs with exit code ``0``, success is indicated by a boolean true value. Failure to build or run is indicated by a boolean false value, such as an empty string or an error message. .. rubric:: Variables Affecting the Check The following variables may be set before calling this command to modify the way the check is run: .. include:: /module/include/CMAKE_REQUIRED_FLAGS.rst .. include:: /module/include/CMAKE_REQUIRED_DEFINITIONS.rst .. include:: /module/include/CMAKE_REQUIRED_INCLUDES.rst .. include:: /module/include/CMAKE_REQUIRED_LINK_OPTIONS.rst .. include:: /module/include/CMAKE_REQUIRED_LIBRARIES.rst .. include:: /module/include/CMAKE_REQUIRED_LINK_DIRECTORIES.rst .. include:: /module/include/CMAKE_REQUIRED_QUIET.rst Examples ^^^^^^^^ The following example demonstrates how to check whether the C++ standard library is functional and ``std::vector`` works at runtime. If the source compiles, links, and runs successfully, internal cache variable ``HAVE_WORKING_STD_VECTOR`` will be set to boolean true value. Code is supplied using :ref:`Bracket Argument` for easier embedded quotes handling: .. code-block:: cmake :force: include(CheckCXXSourceRuns) check_cxx_source_runs([[ #include #include int main() { std::vector v = {1, 2, 3}; if (v.size() != 3) return 1; std::cout << "Vector works correctly." << std::endl; return 0; } ]] HAVE_WORKING_STD_VECTOR) See Also ^^^^^^^^ * The :module:`CheckSourceRuns` module for a more general command syntax. * The :module:`CheckSourceCompiles` module to check whether a source code can be built. #]=======================================================================] include_guard(GLOBAL) include(Internal/CheckSourceRuns) macro(CHECK_CXX_SOURCE_RUNS SOURCE VAR) set(_CheckSourceRuns_old_signature 1) cmake_check_source_runs(CXX "${SOURCE}" ${VAR} ${ARGN}) unset(_CheckSourceRuns_old_signature) endmacro()
