SYNOPSIS

ct-* [compilation args] [filename.cpp] [–variant=<VARIANT>]

DESCRIPTION

The various ct-* tools exist to build C/C++ executables with almost no configuration. For example, to build a C or C++ program, type

ct-cake –auto

which will try to determine the correct source files to generate executables from and also determine the tests to build and run.

A variant is a configuration file that specifies various configurable settings like the compiler and compiler flags. Common variants are “debug” and “release”.

Other notable tools are

  • ct-headertree: provides information about structure of the include files

  • ct-filelist: provides the list of files needed to be included in a tarball (e.g. for packaging)
