A Common Package Specification: Getting Build Tools to Talk to Each Other Lessons Learned From Making Thousands of Binaries Consumable by Any Build System Diego Rodriguez-Losada @ CppCon 2023Outline 3#include int main(void){ … deflateInit(&defstream, Z_BEST_COMPRESSION); Build system scripts Problem definition and scope 1. Define the version to use 2. Define the configuration: (system package manager or language package manager), build from source by the user, with that configuration 4. Pass information to the build system so it can locate and use it successfully 4#include

interface 2. Plugins - Stand-alone independent components that contain implementation of core application’s features 3. Plugin Manager - Component responsible for loading and unloading plugins Core use plugin architecture? ● More testable code ○ Interface can be mocked to test core system ○ Plugins can be individually tested ● Simplifies integration ○ Core system has a well defined API ○ Increase have to compile the entire project ● Plugins are be loaded, updated and deleted on the fly without application restart 8Some popular C++ projects that use plugins 9 ● Audio editing software ● Game
