Prerequisites¶

C++ standard¶

Most modern compilers have good support for C++ 20, so it sounds reasonable to make use of the new language features offered by this standard. Moreover, some third party libraries were refactored to take advantage of this standard (sometimes giving up compatibility with C++03).

Build system¶

We use “modern” CMake extensively and provide config-file package for downstream projects.

Dependencies from Conda¶

Lima2 depends on third party libraries and tools that are all provided by the Conda cross platform package manager. These dependencies can be installed independently of the system libraries (in environment), where CMake build system will find them.
