Description

We discussed in the developer meeting last week to remove Makefile support in the examples.
This should for the most part be straightforward but there are a couple of examples that don't have CMake support yet:

  • use-cases/core/median-finding
  • Exercises/hpcbind
  • Exercises/instances
  • Exercises/mpi_heat_conduction

Research direction

Start by inspecting the example directories and locating their Makefile and CMake support. Pay particular attention to use-cases/core/median-finding, Exercises/hpcbind, Exercises/instances, and Exercises/mpi_heat_conduction, which are identified as lacking CMake support. Done means Makefile support is removed from the examples and those cases have CMake support.
