conan: conan cmake will invalidate the old project test

I want to add conan support to my project, but to found it will break my original test settings.

where you can found my cmakelist here:

https://github.com/vigcoin/coin/blob/master/CMakeLists.txt

i currently put to code to the end to ignore conan modules.

you can move it up and execute

./build-debug.sh

to see what will happen under ubuntu 16.04.

No problem at all. You’re all being very helpful. I just wanted to note how important tone can be. (Not directly related but here’s a great talk about how to evangelise your favourite technology. It explains why being right is half the battle … but only on a good day!)

And my particular issue is fixed now. In summary, when using Conan, if ctest cannot find tests because they have been moved to a bin/ sub-directory, initialise Conan with conan_basic_setup(NO_OUTPUT_DIRS).

Thanks, John
