cmake configuration

[amigo421]

this is a feature request, not a bug.
is it possible for you to extend cmakelists with
ExternalProject_Add statement for auto-cloning and build casablanca prior of your project build will be started?

P.S. could you also add a requirements into readme ? my compiler could not find pqxx headers.
if you'd add "PostgreSQL required" , it would be clear for a starting

Thanks for suggestion, I will extend it with requested feature and try to make more clear structure of repo.

(if you have already done it , you are welcome to contribute so it can be helpful to others )

PostgreSQL is not require neither pqxx if you are just working with Restweb.

as I have mentioned in readme of root root folder .

{ #dbms folder is a independent project right now to access database}

Happy coding 👍

to avoid a raising one more tracker request - just a remark about project organization:
I see a few files which are auto-generated, not a source, depends of the dev host and will be overwritten after cloning in any case
I suggest to remove this from repository:

• Restweb.cbp - this is one of cmake generated files , which is not used directly (usually)
• CMakeCache.txt - this is also auto-generated file and very specific of OS and used toolchains
• Makefile - as far as I understand your project cmake based, so makefile is also produced by cmake, isn't it?
• layout file is also IDE specific and usually is not included into the projects on github, isn't it?

P.S. let me try to implement auto-cloning/build of casablanca directly from the project cmakelists.
not sure that will okay, let me try. will update you in some time.

Yes , there are some auto-generated files also .I will be removing then from git tracker in sort time .
Thanks for advice,it is a great advice not to include sys-generated files.

You are trying to implement auto-cloning/build , please do so . it will be very helpful to everyone.

Thank you , waiting for your update .
