README.md

This repo provides FindOpenBLAS.cmake file, which can be used to configure a CMake project that needs OpenBLAS. We basically took this extremely simple C++ example, modify the code to require OpenBLAS, provide CMake package finder for OpenBLAS and add all the Contineous Integration (CI) to test it against different scenarios.

Tests are run on Mac, Linux and Windows, using both static or dynamic libraries.

How to use this project

Actually you can use this project in whatever manner you like. But we think that there are two main ways to use this project:

1. Clone/Fork/Download the entire project and use it as your starting point. This has the advantage that travis and appveyor would be already configured, for you. The only step required to have CI up and running would be to activate your porject in those platforms.

2. Download FindOpenBLAS.cmake and place it wherever is needed in your project.

How to run this example

The best way to understand how to run a project (or install its dependencies) is always looking to CI's configuration (.travis.yml and .appveyor.yml). But as a summary, as this is an example of how to use OpenBLAS and CMake you'll need to install OpenBLAS and download CMake. If you are using an ubuntu, CMake can be install it via:

sudo apt-get install cmake

Once CMake and OpenBLAS have been installed navigate to the root of the project and issue the following commands:

mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. && cmake --build .
