I've downloaded the package from here: https://github.com/jpbarrette/curlpp
When I drag CMakelists.txt onto cmake.exe it does build something that looks like a Microsoft Visual Studio project. I want to build static library that I could use in Codeblocks with GCC instead. I've not idea how to do it, I don't know where the options are or how to set appropriate flags.
I've also followed this post: https://stackoverflow.com/a/27609214/7310666c which is about cURL - it build correctly, but when I linked it to my project it gave me undefined reference error.
Could anyone give me a hand here? My desktop is already littered by all the files I downloaded while trying.

As mentionned here:
CMake [..] is responsible for writing the input files for a native build system.
The modules responsible of creating files for a specific build system are called "Generators". For a full list of those generators, please have a look at this.
In your case, by default it selects Visual Studio, even though "Code Blocks" should be available.
So, here's an example of how you could obtain the required files:
cd /path/to/curlpp/
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -G "CodeBlocks - NMake Makefiles" ..
