Building

Simply call build.py build which will build everything and put all the executables in bin subdirectory.

examples

The examples contain small executables illustrating a single concept. Each file is built to its own executable.

In fact, this is a requirement, based on how the CMakeLists.txt file is structured for this folder. Only single-source-file executables.
