Chapter 6.3 : The CMakeLists.txt file

Let's write the CMakeLists.txt file.

Ordinary, we call the add_executable function from CMake and we can compile our program easily. But, for this tutorial, we want to compare the different compilation options of the compiler (here GCC/G++).

So, we will compile the same code (main.cpp) several times to compare the different execution performances :

We will test different compilation optimisation option which are ordered from the lower to the higher level of optimisation : And we will call our runExample function to run all the programs (or targets). We will create all these targets in the CMakeLists.txt :

add_executable(hadamard_product_Ofast main.cpp)
set_property(TARGET hadamard_product_Ofast PROPERTY COMPILE_FLAGS "-Ofast")
target_link_libraries(hadamard_product_Ofast asterics_hpc)
runExample(hadamard_product_Ofast)
Finally, we have to call our plotPerf to compare their performances :
