More Examples

Debug and release modes:

add_rules("mode.debug", "mode.release")

target("console")
    set_kind("binary")
    add_files("src/*.c") 
    if is_mode("debug") then
        add_defines("DEBUG")
    end

Download and use packages in xmake-repo:

add_requires("libuv master", "ffmpeg", "zlib 1.20.*")
add_requires("tbox >1.6.1", {optional = true, debug = true})
target("test")
    set_kind("shared")
    add_files("src/*.c")
    add_packages("libuv", "ffmpeg", "tbox", "zlib")

Download and use packages in third-party package manager:

add_requires("brew::pcre2/libpcre2-8", {alias = "pcre2"})
add_requires("conan::OpenSSL/1.0.2n@conan/stable", {alias = "openssl"}) 
target("test")
    set_kind("shared")
    add_files("src/*.c")
    add_packages("pcre2", "openssl")

Find and use local packages:

target("test")
    set_kind("shared")
    add_files("src/*.c")
    on_load(function (target)
        target:add(find_packages("zlib", "openssl", "brew::pcre2/libpcre2-8", "conan::OpenSSL/1.0.2n@conan/stable"))
    end)
