> Add cmake package configuration support?
> ----------------------------------------

> Key: THRIFT-4752
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-4752
> Project: Thrift
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Deployment
> Reporter: Mario Emmenlauer
> Assignee: James E. King III
> Priority: Trivial
> Labels: cmake
> Time Spent: 0.5h
> Remaining Estimate: 0h

> The thrift build with cmake is really great! In my daily use, there is a
> minor issue left: downstream packages all have to have a FindThrift.cmake
> script. This is slightly annoying, because it replicates the same detection
> script over and over in all downstream packages.
> Modern cmake suggests a nice solution: the use of package configuration files
> (see
> [https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.0/manual/cmake-packages.7.html#package-configuration-file).]
> With package configuration files, after building thrift, downstream packages
> can just use
> {noformat}
> find_package(thrift){noformat}
> and the library and compiler are "auto-magically" resolved. Transitive
> package dependencies are also resolved, and even build settings like compiler
> flags can be passed on.
> I have created a package configuration for thrift cmake build. Could this be
> considered for inclusion?
