I have a CMake project with two subdirectories: one with the sources for a shared lib and the other with sources for an executable (which depends on the shared lib).

The problem is that the shared lib has a file called "common.h.in", which is converted to "common.h" in the build directory by CMake. This is fine, but when the executable includes a header file from the shared lib that includes common.h, it fails to compile because common.h isn't there.

What should I do?

Form the shared lib's CMakeLists.txt:

Code:

CONFIGURE_FILE (${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/common.h.in

        ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/common.h)

include_directories ("${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}")

Do you see any path setting for the libraries when executing:

Code:

$ ccmake .

I don't understand.

ccmake (double c is not a typo) should open a configuration window, where you can setup some things like the final path of the build and so on. Maybe a path to a library is also provided there by the source in question.

The manual : man ccmake
