I hadn't gotten around to package and installing yet. Thanks for this one!

A few quick questions since I haven't used much cpack. I ran this branch to see the output with make package this creates the zip files and an install script. What all needs to be included with this packaging? I see the dbc.pc and install_manifest.txt also in the folder. just wanting to know what to include and/or what to run when creating a release. I will do some more digging later but was curious if you knew or not.

As what I know anything else is needed for distributing the library. I created an Arch Linux package: https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=dbc_parser_cpp-git
So basically the dbc.pc file is a helper file for cmake which describes the project and all the paths to the library, include paths and other dependencies.

In a cmake project you just simply search for the dbc package. Cmake searches then through a few search paths to find the dbc.pc file and creates from it then a target.
This target can then linked to the library. In the dbc target also the include directories which are needed are included. So you don't have to add them explicitly. Pretty simple ^^ (I also just learned it a few days ago)

FIND_PACKAGE(PkgConfig REQUIRED)
pkg_check_modules(dbc REQUIRED IMPORTED_TARGET dbc)
target_link_libraries(yourApplicationTarget PkgConfig::dbc)

I closed this in favor of #5
I just used here the master, but this was not good

Alright I will take a look at the new PR. Thanks for the info above! That seems pretty straight forward. Nice to see the AUR also! Been meaning to getting around and learning that. Maybe I will see about adding this to some of the main line distros. Never done something like that before. This would be a great project to learn that on.
