This is the CMake "project" file. It's the equivalent of the .sln and
.vcproj files.

The module to find Wt. Copy it from the Wt sources, it's in the 'cmake'
directory.
As CMake is cross-platform, it does not specify paths to libraries, include
directories, etc but discover them. To do so, you use the find_library,
find_file, etc commands.
For libraries that are used frequently, people write modules (also called
"finders") such as FindWt.cmake. It does all the find_library, find_file,
etc internally and provides you with some variables you can use. To use a
module in your CMakeLists.txt, you do find_package(Module).
For instance, for Wt you would do find_package(Wt REQUIRED). The REQUIRED
keyword tells CMake that module is an essential requirement, and it should
fail and refuse to continue if it's not available.

All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security
threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes
sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.
