JackBoosY created ARROW-7644: -------------------------------- Summary: Add vcpkg installation instructions Key: ARROW-7644 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-7644 Project: Apache Arrow Issue Type: Improvement Components: Documentation Affects Versions: 0.15.1 Environment: All platforms Reporter: JackBoosY
arrow is available as a port in vcpkg, a C++ library manager that simplifies installation for arrow and other project dependencies. Documenting the install process here will help users get started by providing a single set of commands to build arrow, ready to be included in their projects. We also test whether our library ports build in various configurations (dynamic, static) on various platforms (OSX, Linux, Windows: x86, x64, UWP, ARM) to keep a wide coverage for users. I'm a maintainer for vcpkg, and [here is what the port script looks like|https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg/blob/master/ports/arrow/portfile.cmake]. We try to keep the library maintained as close as possible to the original library. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
