A quick repository to check out and compare a couple of C++ CLI arguments parser libraries. Note that these are example programs and the command line flags and options might not make sense on their own.
Note: At the moment clipp does not compile with C++20 and MSVC.
Build
Default build instructions for CMake and Vcpkg. These examples assume that Vcpkg is installed in your home directory. Adjust the paths if necessary.
Vcpkg toolchain
Pass your Vcpkg toolchain file viaCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE, for example on Windows: -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=%HOMEPATH%\vcpkg\scripts\buildsystems\vcpkg.cmake
Or on Unix systems: -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=$HOME/vcpkg/scripts/buildsystems/vcpkg.cmake
Linux + Mac
$ mkdir build$ cd build$ cmake -G Ninja -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=$HOME/vcpkg/scripts/buildsystems/vcpkg.cmake ..$ ninja$ cd ..$ ./build/src/cli11 -h
Windows
$ mkdir build$ cd build$ cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=%HOMEPATH%\vcpkg\scripts\buildsystems\vcpkg.cmake -DVCPKG_TARGET_TRIPLET=x64-windows ..$ cmake --build . --config Release$ cd ..$ .\build\src\Release\cli11.exe -h
