Bug Description

We don't have any documentation covering how to write an application using Zorba as a runtime library. A good chunk of the "module authoring" guide describes using CMake to find Zorba and so on; this information would be relevant to developing an application as well as a module. Perhaps it should be split out into a common section, and a new section on developing Zorba applications should be written.

It is quite possible that there are missing features in the current Zorba CMake framework for developing applications, because as far as I know there are no test of this usage. In particular, I don't know if there's sufficient information in ZorbaConfig.cmake to allow an application author to link against libzorba.

Related: The brief mention of DECLARE_ZORBA_SCHEMA() is part of the "module authoring" guide also, but strictly speaking it's not part of authoring modules, and may be relevant for application authors as well.
