import CMake; // Mastering C++ Modules
Talkat CppCon 2024 · on Friday, 2024-09-20· at 09:00· Maple 3/4/5, 6700 North Gaylord Rockies Boulevard·
summary
CMake now has non‑experimental named module support and an experimental import std flow, with specific notes: CMake 3.28 non‑experimental named modules, 3.29 import‑std experimental. The talk shows concrete tooling: Ninja dynamic‑dependency patches, compiler BMI/IFC outputs, and the need to build clang and CMake and ninja patches to try things locally. A run against open projects tries 17 libraries tried 3 worked (compile succeeded but many lacked install rules); examples like compile‑time regex build and run successfully.
