About:
mm-common provides essential build infrastructure and utility scripts for C++ interfaces targeting GTK+ and GNOME libraries. It delivers standardized Meson build files, documentation extraction tools, and code generation helpers that ensure consistent development workflows across related projects.
Key Features:
  • Meson build system integration and templates
  • Doxygen documentation helper scripts
  • Common macros and utility functions
  • Standardized project configuration templates
Use Cases:
  • Building gtkmm or glibmm from source
  • Developing C++ bindings for GNOME/GTK libraries
  • Setting up consistent build environments for GTK+ based C++ projects
Alternatives:
  • autotools – Legacy build system; mm-common provides modern Meson-based tooling instead
  • cmake – General-purpose build system; mm-common offers GTK+ specific templates and utilities
