FindMathematica is a CMake module that tries to find a Wolfram Language installation and provides CMake functions for its C/C++ interface.
- Works with Windows, Linux and OS X versions of the Wolfram Language.
- Supports Wolfram Language versions from 5.2 to 14.0.
- Supports Wolfram Language implementations Wolfram Mathematica, Wolfram|One, Wolfram Engine and Wolfram gridMathematica.
- Finds include directories and libraries for LibraryLink (version 8 or later).
- Finds include directories and libraries for WSTP (version 10 or later).
- Finds installation directory and JAR file of J/Link.
- Finds include directories and libraries for MathLink.
- Finds installation directory of Wolfram MUnit testing package.
- Provides exact version info for the Wolfram Language, LibraryLink, WSTP, MathLink, J/Link and MUnit.
- Allows for running Wolfram Language code during CMake configure or build time.
- Allows for running Wolfram Language code as a pre-link, pre-build or post-build action.
- Allows for running Wolfram Language code in CMake test targets.
- Allows for running Wolfram Language MUnit test files and suites as CMake test targets.
- Supports generating C code from WSTP template files using
wsprp
executable. - Supports generating C code from MathLink template files using
mprep
executable. - Supports building dynamic libraries loadable with LibraryLink.
- Supports generating stand-alone C code from Wolfram Language code with CCodeGenerator.
- Provides CMake interface to Wolfram Language's Encode function.
- Supports generating Wolfram Language documentation with the DocumentationBuild package.
- Fully leverages CMake's cross-compiling support.
- A Wolfram Language product (Wolfram Mathematica, Wolfram|One, Wolfram Engine, Wolfram gridMathematica).
- CMake 3.5.0 or newer. The executable
cmake
should be on the system path. - Visual Studio C++, MinGW under Windows.
- GCC or Clang under Linux or OS X.
- Xcode application or Xcode Command Line Tools under OS X.
- libuuid under Linux.
- Apache Ant is required for generating Wolfram Language documentation.
Copy the directory CMake/Mathematica
to the root directory of your CMake project. In the
top-level CMakeList.txt
file, add the module directory to the CMake module search path:
set (CMAKE_MODULE_PATH "${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/CMake/Mathematica" ${CMAKE_MODULE_PATH})
To find the newest Wolfram Language installation in a CMake list file, run the find_package
command:
find_package(Mathematica)
See the FindMathematica manual for more information.
In October 2020, Wolfram Research have released LibraryLinkUtilities as an open source project that provides modern C++ wrappers for conveniently wrapping Wolfram LibraryLink code.
