The configuration file Converter.config

• bakeConv needs a config file, which define a couple of projects to convert
• every project has its own scope, which is defined by the braces { ... } (the most inner one)
• there are mandatory and optional variables you have/may to define

Assume the following folder structure

 >> C:/projects/ESR/ExampleProject
			|_main
			|_sub1
			|_sub2
			|_tools/convert
				|_config
				   -> Converter.config
				|_templates	
				   -> CMakeTemplate.txt
				   -> template_UnitTest.txt
				   -> template_GMock.txt	
 

Example

    	
    {
 	Workspace = [../../.., C:/projects/ESR/ExampleProject]		# abolute or relative	
	{
	  MainProj = Workspace[0]/main					# i. e. MainProj = ../../../main	
	  BuildConfig = application
	  TemplateFile = ../templates/CMakeTemplate.txt			# relative to config file	
	  {
	      Proj2Convert = main
	      OutputFile = $$(BAKE_PROJECTDIR)/CMakeLists.txt		
	  }
	  {
	      Proj2Convert = sub1
	      OutputFile = $$(BAKE_PROJECTDIR)/CMakeLists.txt
	  }
	  {
	      Proj2Convert = sub2
	      OutputFile = $$(BAKE_PROJECTDIR)/CMakeLists.txt
	  }
	}
	{
	  BuildConfig = UnitTest
	  TemplateFile = ../templates/template_UnitTest.txt
	  GMOCK_TEMPLATE = ../templates/template_GMock.txt		# relative to config file
	  EXCLUDE_BAKE_DEPENDENCIES = [gmock, sub1]
	  EXCLUDE_BAKE_INCLUDES = [gmock]
	  {
	      MainProj = Workspace[1]/sub1				# i. e. MainProj = C:/projects/ESR/ExampleProject/sub1	
	      Proj2Convert = sub1,UnitTest
	      OutputFile = $$(BAKE_PROJECTDIR)/test/CMakeLists.txt
	  }
	  {
	      MainProj = Workspace[1]/sub2
	      Proj2Convert = sub2,UnitTest
	      OutputFile = $$(BAKE_PROJECTDIR)/test/CMakeLists.txt
	  }
	}
   }
 

The variables Workspace (-w in bake), MainProj (-m in bake), BuildConfig (-b in bake), Proj2Convert (-p in bake) are required by bake and have to be defined. Usage like in bake (see bake documentation).

OutputFile and TemplateFile are also required variables. With

OutputFile = $$(BAKE_PROJECTDIR)/CMakeLists.txt
TemplateFile = ../templates/template_libraryWithUnitTest.txt

Attention about paths

• "Workspace" and "TemplateFile" have to be relative to the CONFIG FILE
• "OutputFile" should be define in the project folder. This is defined via $$(BAKE_PROJECTDIR), which will be replaced by bakeConv.
• "MainProj" path should be defined with one of the Workspace Array Elements e. g. "Workspace[1]" and the name of the project module.

Self defined variables

• bake will provide BAKE_SOURCES, BAKE_INCLUDES and BAKE_DEPENDENCIES
• all other variables have to be defined by the user in the config file

Examples

 SpecialDependency = logger
 GMOCK_TEMPLATE = ../templates/template_gMock.txt  
 BAKE_SOURCES = []
 TEXT =	
 

Several lines from another template can be insert in the main template file by:

GMOCK_TEMPLATE = ../templates/template_gMock.txt

If one project doesn't have any source files, then an empty array

BAKE_SOURCES = []

should be defined. Otherwise $$(BAKE_SOURCES) will appear in the output file.

In general, with

TEXT =

Attention: The self defined variables in the config file should be of course the same as in the template file!

Filtering

EXCLUDE_BAKE_INCLUDES = [gmock]
