This repo provide a simple default -file _config.xml.in_ that should work for simple application without -interactions with others bindings. - -It is recommanded that you use the sample one which is more complete. You can -find it at the same location under the name _config.xml.in.sample_ (stunning -isn't it). Just copy the sample file to your _conf.d/wgt_ directory and name it -_config.xml.in_, then edit it to fit your needs. - -> ***CAUTION*** : The default file is only meant to be use for a -> simple widget app, more complicated ones which needed to export -> their api, or ship several app in one widget need to use the provided -> _config.xml.in.sample_ which had all new Application Framework -> features explained and examples. - -## Using cmake template macros - -To leverage all cmake templates features, you have to specify ***properties*** -on your targets. Some macros will not works without specifying which is the -target type. - -As the type is not always specified for some custom targets, like an ***HTML5*** -application, macros make the difference using ***LABELS*** property. - -Choose between: - -- **BINDING**: Shared library that be loaded by the AGL Application Framework -- **BINDINGV2**: Shared library that be loaded by the AGL Application Framework. - This has to be accompagnied with a JSON file named like the *${OUTPUT_NAME}-apidef* of - the target that describe the API with OpenAPI syntax (e.g: *mybinding-apidef*). - Or you can choose the name by setting the *CACHE* cmake variable *OPENAPI_DEF* - (***CAUTION***: setting a CACHE variable is needed, or set a normal variable - with the *PARENT_SCOPE* option to make it visible for the parent scope - where the target is defined) JSON file will be used to generate header file - using `afb-genskel` tool. -- **HTDOCS**: Root directory of a web app. This target has to build its - directory and puts its files in the ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/${TARGET_NAME} -- **DATA**: Resources used by your application.
