CMake build system for static linking

Open stephenberry opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

SU2 is a fantastic library, but the build process is really painful to get static linking within another C++ program. CMake is a standard for building C++ projects and would be extremely helpful. Ideally Python wouldn't be necessary to build SU2 or link it with another project. In our use case we need to link the library so that we can efficiently multithread workflows, keep data in memory, and make analysis as efficient as possible. I realize this is a significant request, but a build process with CMake could be so much simpler and would make your codebase much more accessible to the C++ community. Thanks so much for all your excellent work!
