 * **-p "the project description"**: this parameter is required. It provides a short description of the project. This parameter will appear in all the associated documentation. For multi-word values, use the double quote.
 * **-n project\_name**: this parameter is required. It specifies the name of the shared library or the binary file. **This parameter must not have any whitespace characters**.
 * **-d comma,separated,dependencies**: this parameter is optional. It specifies a set of dependencies of the library or application. These depedencies will be automatically included inside the CMake structure. Only dependencies developed at IRI are currently supported. Other type of dependencies should better be added by hand once the project has been already created.

 After executing the script, all the temporary and template files are removed, as well as the link to the remote GIT repository, so that the new project can be easily associated to another repository.
