Googling around I've come across this stackoverflow question. It is true, it is not working because the proposed package Hello/0.1@memsharded/testing does not exist in remotes (conan-center).

We should change documentation at https://docs.conan.io/en/latest/howtos/cmake_launch.html to use an existing package (also change README in https://github.com/conan-io/cmake-conan), and maybe add a minimum main.cpp file too.

For example, we can use the same example from the Getting started section:

  • Poco/1.9.0@pocoproject/stable

  • main.cpp

     #include "Poco/MD5Engine.h"
     #include "Poco/DigestStream.h"
    
     #include <iostream>
    
    
     int main(int argc, char** argv)
     {
         Poco::MD5Engine md5;
         Poco::DigestOutputStream ds(md5);
         ds << "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz";
         ds.close();
         std::cout << Poco::DigestEngine::digestToHex(md5.digest()) << std::endl;
         return 0;
     }
