CMake Cookbook

Getting ready

The ingredient for this recipe will be a tiny Python script (test.py) that always returns 0. To keep it super simple and to maintain focus on the CMake aspect, the test script does nothing other than wait for two seconds; but, we can imagine that in real life, this test script would perform more meaningful work:

import sysimport time# wait for 2 secondstime.sleep(2)# report successsys.exit(0)
