[Question] Can I use profile composition with cpt?

Open PatSche opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

With Conan client, we can specify multiple profiles in the command line. The applied configuration will be the composition of all the profiles applied in the order they are specified. This is called "profile composition".

Is it possible to use this feature of Conan client also with conan-package-tools or is not supported?

In my case, I have a default profile or a profile for cross-compilation like raspi and a profile qt_options for all common options to compile the same configured Qt Conan package for Raspberry Pi and my host system.

Hello @PatSche ! Unfortunately this feature is not implemented as it's a rare case. Actually, you are the first who asks for it.

It can be added yes, but will not be prioritized now due other tasks. Feel free to open PR with a contribution!

Regards!
