Detailed Description

Configuration for rebuilding the current executable.

This class allows specifying how to rebuild the current executable parts is a vector of strings that represent the command line parts. The special strings _PROGRAM_ and _SOURCE_ can be used to represent the program name and source file name respectively. By default, these are set to "bob" and "bob.cpp".

Note

This class is used indirectly by the GO_REBUILD_YOURSELF macro. To customize the rebuild command in used by the macro, you can define BOB_REBUILD_CMD before including the bob.hpp header file.

Example

// Specify the desired rebuild command.
RebuildConfig config({ "g++", "-o", "_PROGRAM_", "_SOURCE_", "-Wall" });
 
// Create a run-able command. Program and source files can be specified here if needed.
Cmd cmd = config.cmd();
 
// Runs: g++ -o my_program my_source.cpp -Wall
cmd.run();
