Using CMake on Windows

$ cmake -G "NMake Makefiles" C:\Raima\rdm-<package>-16.0\

Minimum Requirements

The following list is an example of additional packages that need to be installed on a default Windows Desktop machine in order to build the examples:

msvs		Microsoft Visual Studio 2019 or greater
cmake		CMake is an optional MSVS installer option. Or, the CMake tool can be downloaded and installed from a CMake repository.
Java JDK		Standard Java or Java compatible Development Kit (Required for RaimaDB Enterprise package only)
pwsh		Powershell 7.3.x or greater

Steps for Building an Example

The following steps can be used for all the compiled examples included in the RaimaDB installation package.

1. Setup a target directory for the example and change directory into the new directory. In the image below, the mybuild directory was created:
   
2. Execute the CMake for the example you wish to build. In the image below, the core02Example was selected from the installation directory:
   
3. Build the example. The command line "cmake --build ." will build the example:
   
4. The example can be executed using the "ctest" utility:
   

The steps above can be repeated for each example that you wish to build and execute. Always make sure to begin the process by creating a new directory for each example to be built and executed.

The list of available examples can be found in the Examples & Tutorials list or by investigating the <installdir>/share/RDM/GettingStarted directory on your disk.
