Description

Hello guys, I would like to see the support of C++ libraries installation in a simmilar manner like Python has requirements.txt, R has install.R.

as @betatim offered we can use CMakeLists.txt

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine existing language buildpacks in repo2docker (e.g., Python requirements.txt, R install.R) to understand the pattern, then design a new buildpack that detects a CMakeLists.txt and runs cmake and make to install C++ dependencies.
