I find that quite useful.
This is very gratifying to me.
I hope this is not a misunderstanding. I wrote my first message to agree with you that it is not weird or very awkward to have just one CMakeLists.txt in the build directory, even if it is a bit non-standard. I can't say much about the more complex arguments brought forward in this thread.
I didn't misunderstand and I appreciate the support. I spent a fair amount of time trying make a simple solution. I found lot's of scripts, libraries, advice, etc. etc. But none of it boiled things down to the minimal essentials. One result is that my advice doesn't really address the case compiled libraries. I didn't addresses that because I couldn't figure a way to make it simple and most libraries are header only and the current advice was "good enough". But now I realize I could maintain the same simplicity, support libraries which have to be compiled and perhaps address the concerns raised in this thread.
Good luck with your submission. Thank you. :) I am still writing documentation, but I expect to finish soon.
