cmake_cxx_go

We add some custom CMake functions to support golang including go get, go build, go install.

custom functions

1. ExternalGoProject_Add

ExternalGoProject_Add(go_redis github.com/hoisie/redis)

2. ADD_GO_EXECUTABLE

ADD_GO_EXECUTABLE(redis_lister    # executable name
                  redis_lister.go # `package main` source file
                  go_redis)       # everything else is a dependency

3. ADD_GO_LIBRARY

add_go_library(adder STATIC)  # build library libaddr.a
add_executable(main main.cxx) # build binary main
add_dependencies(main adder)  # adder is a dependency of main
target_link_libraries(main ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/libadder.a) # link libaddr.a into main

cmake build and install

mkdir build && cmake ..
make && make install

Test cases

• redis: redis lister
• recordio: go get external projects and build a library
• static_and_shared: C++ calling from go static/dynamic library
• cuda: go calling from CUDA kernel
