Motivation

  • MacOS does not support inotify but the shadow example code uses it. On MacOS these examples need to be removed in order for the compilation to be successful.

Modifications

Change summary

Added a check in CMakeLists.txt to detect if the system is an Apple operating system. If so, disable the shadow examples.

Testing

No CI for this but I needed to make this change in order to build the project on Mac OS.

MacOS does not have inotify which the shadow examples depend on. The equivalent implementation requires kqueue and kevent from sys/event.h.

If the OS is MacOS then EXCLUDE_SHADOW, EXCLUDE_CONFIG_SHADOW, and EXCLUDE_SAMPLE_SHADOW are set.
