vcpkg/cmake C++ gRPC example

This simple example demonstrates how to get started with gRPC using vcpkg to install gRPC and cmake to build the example.

Build Instructions

  1. Install vcpkg

    # I installed vcpkg in /opt, but you can do it anywhere.
cd /opt
git clone https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg.git
cd vcpkg
./bootstrap-vcpkg.sh

  2. Install gRPC and dependencies via vcpkg

    cd /opt/vcpkg
./vcpkg install grpc

  3. Download and build this example project

    cd ~
git clone https://github.com/yonik/grpc_example.git
cd ~/grpc_example
mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=/opt/vcpkg/scripts/buildsystems/vcpkg.cmake
make

  4. Run the example

    # should still be in the "build" directory 
./grpc_example

Notes

If you get AddressSanitizer errors, that may be expected. I created this project to replicate the ASAN bugs I was seeing. You can disable ASAN by commenting out the ASAN related lines in CMakeLists.txt and then re-running cmake and make. Update: gRPC and dependencies must currently also be compiled with ASAN for ASAN to work.

This example uses new "editions" of protobuf, and currently needs this: microsoft/vcpkg#39800 which is not yet merged into vcpkg.
