Build and test C++ examples in CI #5427
Description
Description
The examples at https://github.com/rapidsai/cugraph/tree/main/cpp/examples aren't currently tested in CI.
They should be.
Benefits of this work
- ensures examples continue working as cuGraph and its dependencies change
- adds to test coverage
Acceptance Criteria
- all C++ examples are at least built in CI, and those that can run there are run (multi-GPU examples may not be runnable in CI)
Approach
This could look like copying what other RAPIDS projects do and building a conda package with the examples, that's then downloaded and run in the C++ test jobs. cuDF does and build a conda package with the examples:
libcudf-example(recipe)libcuvs-examples(recipe)librmm-example(recipe)libucxx-examples(recipe)
2 libraries chose -example (singular) and 2 chose -examples (plural), so libcugraph could be the tie-breaker 😅
Notes
This issue was inspired by #5423, where I found that the examples weren't working with recent versions of rapids-cmake.
