GDExtension C++ CMake Example

---

Made this mainly for myself to be able to use it with CLion.

If you use CLion then doing a simple "Install" should work right away.

The setup already handles the godot-cpp fetching, so no need to worry about cloning it yourself.

How it works

Upon Install CMake will build the library and generate <plugin_name>.gdextension file for the plugin to work. Then it will place the files into ./demo/bin/ in order to test it quickly.

<plugin_name>.gdextension is generated based on template contents in plugin_template.gdextension.in that are replaced by CMake's configure_file function.

Some of the Plugin configuration mainly happens through CMakeLists file via some of the defined variables in it:

• PROJECT_NAME - Renames <plugin_name>.gdextension file to match the project name, also renames the DLLs and targets in the plugin_template.gdextension.in file.
• GODOT_MIN_REQUIREMENT - Minimal Godot version requirement that is inserted into ${PROJECT_NAME}.gdextension.
• ENTRY_POINT - Entry point name of the DLL.
• GDP_TEMPLATE_FILE - name of the <template_name>.gdextension.in template file.
