Build the Project with CMake

Navigate to the project root.

1. Configure the build: Makefile, .sln, etc.

   cmake -S . -B build
   

   To configure only selected tasks:

   cmake -S . -B build -DPPC_TASKS="example"
   

   Optional: enable sanitizers for local debugging

   cmake -S . -B build -D ENABLE_ADDRESS_SANITIZER=ON -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo
   

   Help on CMake keys:

   • -D USE_FUNC_TESTS=ON enable functional tests.

   • -D USE_PERF_TESTS=ON enable performance tests.

   • -D PPC_BUILD_COMPONENTS=OFF skip C++ modules, tasks, tests, and their dependencies, useful for docs-only or scoreboard-only configurations.

   • -D PPC_TASKS=all builds every task (default). Pass one task or a semicolon list, for example -D PPC_TASKS="example", to limit the build.

   • -D PPC_IMPLEMENTATIONS="seq;omp" select implementation folders to configure.

   • -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release normal build (default).

   • -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo recommended when using sanitizers or running valgrind to keep debug information.

   • -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug for debugging sessions.

   A corresponding flag can be omitted if it’s not needed.

2. Build the project:

   cmake --build build --config Release --parallel
   

3. Run tests:

   Prefer the helper runner described in User Guide → CI.
