Demonstrate how to use Dear ImGui with Conan to add a GUI to an OpenGL3 application.
Use CMake to declare, export and install the targets of some libraries and using Conan to reuse them with
find_package and the multi-configuration project.
Demonstrate how to use the cmake_find_package_multi generator to integrate seamlessly CMake with Conan
using find_package in a multi-configuration project.
Example on how to create multi-configuration debug/release packages covering the N configs -> 1 package use case:
- Remove the
build_typefrom settings. - Have a CMake script that differentiate debug and release artifacts (
set_target_properties(hello PROPERTIES DEBUG_POSTFIX _d)). - Have a
build()that builds both configs. - Have a
package_info()method that accounts for both configsself.cpp_info.debug.libs, etc.

When a package in a dependency graph is modified and a new version or revision is created, it is sometimes desired to test if that new version works well within a larger product or project, that is, when that package is part of a larger dependency graph. The packages that depend on the modified one might need to be rebuilt, but if something else changed, it is impossible to achieve reproducible builds.
Using lockfiles can enforce the same upstream dependencies, to ensure reproducible builds and to re-build and test such scenarios.
