cmakepp: Template Generation in CMake

Find it at http://github.com/toeb/cmakepp Download cmakepp standalone file here As with all my work I appreciate all feedback given and am particularly happy about virtual internet points 🙂 To the Post: While working on the documentation of cmakepp I grew wary of always doubling the documentation – one in the source code and a mirror in the README.md. Also I was frustrated when I refactored and renamed functions or changed signatures which is not uncommon – especially when working on a new feature.

cmakepp: Reading and Writing JSON

While working on a package manager for CMake I came across the problem of finding a suitable format for my package descriptor files. First I thought about and tried using plain old CMake file that simply sets variables and can be included to access its contents. It was very quick and easy to implement. Hierarchical data structures however where hard to implement and a none standard format makes it harder to exchange data with a webservice/other programs.
