工作环境
- 系统：macOS Mojave 10.14.6
- CMake: Version 3.15.0-rc4
从 Hello,World! 开始
(1) 新建 hello 目录，创建文件 CMakeLists.txt、main.cpp
$ mkdir hello
$ cd hello
$ touch CMakeLists.txt main.cpp
$ ll
-rw-r--r-- 1 staff staff 124B 8 14 17:19 CMakeLists.txt
-rw-r--r--@ 1 staff staff 145B 8 14 21:33 main.cpp
(2) 编写程序代码 main.cpp，其代码如下：
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main(int argc, char const *argv[]) {
/* code */
cout << "Hello,World!" << endl;
return 0;
}
(3) 编写 CMakeLists.txt，如下：
# cmake 最低版本需求，不加入此行会受到警告信息
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.15.0)
# 项目名设置为 hello
project(hello)
# 将当前目录中的源文件名称赋值给变量 SRC_LIST
aux_source_directory(. SRC_LIST)
# 指示变量 SRC_LIST 中的源文件需要编译成一个名称为 hello 的可执行文件
add_executable(hello ${SRC_LIST})
(4) 执行 cmake & make 编译
# 进入 hello 目录
$ pwd
/Users/staff/Desktop/hello
$ ll
-rw-r--r--@ 1 staff staff 124B 8 14 17:19 CMakeLists.txt
-rw-r--r--@ 1 staff staff 145B 8 14 21:33 main.cpp
# 执行 cmake . 命令
$ cmake .

(5) 外部编译方式
cmake 可以直接在当前目录进行编译，但是，这种做法会将所有生成的中间文件和源代码混在一起，而且 cmake 生成的 makefile 无法跟踪所有的中间文件，即不容易将所有的中间文件删除。
- 之前编译方式的目录（中间文件和源代码混在一起）：
$ pwd
/Users/staff/Desktop/hello
$ ll
-rw-r--r-- 1 staff staff 13K 8 14 21:50 CMakeCache.txt
drwxr-xr-x 12 staff staff 384B 8 14 21:51 CMakeFiles
-rw-r--r--@ 1 staff staff 124B 8 14 17:19 CMakeLists.txt
-rw-r--r-- 1 staff staff 4.7K 8 14 21:50 Makefile
-rw-r--r-- 1 staff staff 1.3K 8 14 21:50 cmake_install.cmake
-rwxr-xr-x 1 staff staff 18K 8 14 21:51 hello
-rw-r--r--@ 1 staff staff 145B 8 14 21:33 main.cpp
$ ./hello
Hello,World!
- 使用外部编译方式：
$ pwd
/Users/staff/Desktop/hello
$ ll
-rw-r--r--@ 1 staff staff 124B 8 14 17:19 CMakeLists.txt
-rw-r--r--@ 1 staff staff 145B 8 14 21:33 main.cpp
# 在 hello 文件夹中新建 build 文件夹
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ pwd
/Users/staff/Desktop/hello/build
# 在 hello/build 文件夹中，执行 cmake & make 编译
$ cmake ..
