This +functionality can be accessed with the `meson init` command. A typical +project setup would go like this: + +```console +$ mkdir project_name +$ cd project_name +$ meson init --language=c --name=myproject --version=0.1 +``` + +This would create the build definitions for a helloworld type +project. The result can be compiled as usual. For example compiling it +with Ninja could be done like this: + +``` +$ meson builddir +$ ninja -C builddir +``` + +The generator has many different projects and settings. They can all +be listed by invoking the command `meson test --help`. diff --git a/docs/sitemap.txt b/docs/sitemap.txt index b7ee136ca..87a5eb51f 100644 --- a/docs/sitemap.txt +++ b/docs/sitemap.txt @@ -48,6 +48,7 @@ index.md Creating-releases.md Creating-OSX-packages.md Creating-Linux-binaries.md + Project-templates.md Reference-manual.md Reference-tables.md FAQ.md |
