Please +use case sensitivity that matches modern (ie. cmake version 2.6 and above) +conventions of using lower-case for commands, and upper-case for +variables. + +## How to build + +As cmake doesn't support command like `cmake clean`, it's recommended to perform a "out of source build". +To do this, you can create a new directory and build in it: +```sh +cd build/cmake +mkdir builddir +cd builddir +cmake .. +make +``` +Then you can clean all cmake caches by simply delete the new directory: +```sh +rm -rf build/cmake/builddir +``` + +And of course, you can directly build in build/cmake: +```sh +cd build/cmake +cmake +make +``` + +To show cmake build options, you can: +```sh +cd build/cmake/builddir +cmake -LH .. +``` + +Bool options can be set to `ON/OFF` with `-D[option]=[ON/OFF]`. You can configure cmake options like this: +```sh +cd build/cmake/builddir +cmake -DZSTD_BUILD_TESTS=ON -DZSTD_LEGACY_SUPPORT=ON .. +make +``` + +### referring +[Looking for a 'cmake clean' command to clear up CMake output](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9680420/looking-for-a-cmake-clean-command-to-clear-up-cmake-output) + +## CMake Style Recommendations + +### Indent all code correctly, i.e. the body of + + * if/else/endif + * foreach/endforeach + * while/endwhile + * macro/endmacro + * function/endfunction + +Use spaces for indenting, 2, 3 or 4 spaces preferably.
