- A C++ compiler that supports C++17
- Wt libraries and their dependencies (e.g., Boost, OpenSSL)
- Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/csabika98/HelloWtApp2.git
cd HelloWtApp2- Create a build directory and navigate into it:
mkdir build
cd build- Run CMake to configure the project:
cmake ..- Build the project:
cmake --build .After building the application, you can run the executable with the following command:
./bin/HelloWtApp2 This command starts the server on http:https://localhost:8080 and serves the application.
The CMakeLists.txt file is configured to:
- Set the project name and version.
- Specify the C++ standard to be used (C++17).
- Include necessary directories.
- Recursively gather source files from the src and docroot/resources directories.
- Create an executable named HelloWtApp2.
- Link necessary libraries.
- Set the runtime output directory.
- Copy necessary DLLs to the output directory after the build.
