将本地JSONCpp安装与CMake和ExternalProject_Add链接

Linking a local JSONCpp install with CMake and ExternalProject_Add

本文关键字:ExternalProject Add 链接 CMake JSONCpp 安装      更新时间:2023-10-16

我正在尝试使用CMake来构建一个使用JSONCpp的项目。我想下载JSONCp,在本地编译并链接到它。项目结构在一个单独的位置有第三方目录的CMake文件。我犯了两个错误。

  1. CMake进程试图全局安装一个文件,但我无法识别CMake变量,无法将其设置为本地安装或根本不安装
  2. 当我运行make时,链接器找不到libjsoncpp,尽管我试图设置所有可能的变量,使其指向正确的方向

有人知道如何关闭全局安装的尝试吗?如何以可移植的方式将链接器指向正确的位置?

我使用的项目结构是:

./jsoncpp_build_test.cc
./third_party/CMakeLists.txt.jsoncpp
./third_party/CMakeLists.txt
./CMakeLists.txt

源文件jsoncpp_build_test为:

#include <iostream>
#include "json/json.h"
int main(int argc, char **argv) {
  Json::Value json_doc;
  std::cout << json_doc.asString() << std::endl;
  return 0;
}

./CMakeLists.txt文件。

project(jsontest CXX C)
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8.12)
add_subdirectory(third_party)
set(jsoncpp_lib_dir ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/jsoncpp-build/src/lib_json)
set(jsoncpp_src_dir ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/jsoncpp-src/include)
add_executable(jsoncpp_build_test "jsoncpp_build_test.cc")
target_include_directories(jsoncpp_build_test PRIVATE  ${jsoncpp_src_dir})
target_include_directories(jsoncpp_build_test PRIVATE ${jsoncpp_lib_dir})
target_link_libraries(jsoncpp_build_test jsoncpp)

third_party/CMakeLists.txt文件。我试图下载JSONCp并安装它,以避免用户必须运行多个与构建相关的命令。

configure_file(CMakeLists.txt.jsoncpp
    jsoncpp/CMakeLists.txt)
set(jsoncpp_work_dir "${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/third_party/jsoncpp")
set(jsoncpp_build_dir "${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/jsoncpp-build")
set(jsoncpp_lib_dir "${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/jsoncpp-lib")
execute_process(COMMAND ${CMAKE_COMMAND} -G "${CMAKE_GENERATOR}" .
    WORKING_DIRECTORY ${jsoncpp_work_dir} )
message(STATUS "INSTALL DIR is ${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}")
set(CMAKE_INSTALL_COMPONENT "${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/jsoncpp-lib")
message(STATUS "INSTALL COMPONENT is ${CMAKE_INSTALL_COMPONENT}")
execute_process(COMMAND ${CMAKE_COMMAND} --build .
    WORKING_DIRECTORY ${jsoncpp_work_dir} )

最后是使用ExternalProject_Add模块的third_party/CMakeLists.txt.json文件。

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8.12)
project(jsoncpp-download NONE)
set(jsoncpp_install_prefix "${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/jsoncpp-lib")
set(CMAKE_INSTALL_COMPONENT "${jsoncpp_install_prefix}")
include(ExternalProject)
ExternalProject_Add(jsoncpp-parser
  GIT_REPOSITORY    https://github.com/open-source-parsers/jsoncpp.git
  GIT_TAG           master
  SOURCE_DIR        "${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/jsoncpp-src"
  BINARY_DIR        "${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/jsoncpp-build"
  INSTALL_DIR       "${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/jsoncpp-lib"
  CMAKE_ARGS        "-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=${jsoncpp_install_prefix}"
)

cd build && cmake ../的结果如下。不过,我不想在全局范围内安装jsoncpp。

默认情况下,命令configure_file${var_name}的所有出现替换为相应变量的值。

因此,它将${jsoncpp_install_prefix}替换为空字符串,因为在调用方的上下文中没有jsoncpp_install_prefix变量。

如果您只想替换一些变量的引用,可以使用命令的@ONLY选项,因此只有@var_name@出现将被替换,但${var_name}将保持不变:

第三方/CMakeLists.txt.json

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8.12)
project(jsoncpp-download NONE)
# This reference will be replaced when configured
set(jsoncpp_install_prefix "@CMAKE_BINARY_DIR@/jsoncpp-lib") 
# But this reference remains unchanged, until resulted CMakeLists.txt will be interpreted.
set(CMAKE_INSTALL_COMPONENT "${jsoncpp_install_prefix}")
...

第三方/CMakeLists.txt

configure_file(CMakeLists.txt.json
    jsoncpp/CMakeLists.txt
    @ONLY)
