----------------------------------------
Summary: Add cmake package configuration support?
Key: THRIFT-4752
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-4752
Project: Thrift
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Deployment
Affects Versions: 1.0
Reporter: Mario Emmenlauer
The thrift build with cmake is really great. There is only a minor issue left,
that downstream packages have to have a FindThrift.cmake script to correctly
find and use the library and compiler.
Modern cmake suggests as a better solution the use of package configuration
files (see
[https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.0/manual/cmake-packages.7.html#package-configuration-file).]
Thanks to package configuration, all users of thrift can just
find_package(thrift) and use the library and compiler without further work.
Transitive package dependencies are also resolved.
I have created a package configuration for thrift cmake build. Could this be
considered for inclusion?
