compiler not finding headers when cross compiling - cmake

I created a cross compiler for the jetson nano using the following bash script:
#!/bin/bash
set -e

I am now trying to use it with cmake to build a project.
I have written the following toolchain file to use when creating the makefile with CMake:
set(CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME Linux)
set(CMAKE_SYSTEM_PROCESSOR arm)
set(CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH path/to/root/of/jetson/nano)
set(CROSS_ROOT /opt/cross/bin)

set(CMAKE_RANLIB ${CROSS_ROOT}/aarch64-linux-ranlib)
set(CMAKE_SIZE ${CROSS_ROOT}/aarch64-linux-size)
set(CMAKE_STRIP ${CROSS_ROOT}/aarch64-linux-strip)
set(CMAKE_GCOV ${CROSS_ROOT}/aarch64-linux-gcov)
set(CMAKE_C_FLAGS "${APP_C_FLAGS} -Wno-psabi" CACHE INTERNAL "")
set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${APP_CXX_FLAGS} ${CMAKE_C_FLAGS}" CACHE INTERNAL "")

set(CMAKE_C_FLAGS_RELEASE "-O3 -DNDEBUG" CACHE INTERNAL "")
set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS_DEBUG "${CMAKE_C_FLAGS_DEBUG}" CACHE INTERNAL "")
set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS_RELEASE "${CMAKE_C_FLAGS_RELEASE}" CACHE INTERNAL "")
set(CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH_MODE_PROGRAM NEVER)
set(CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH_MODE_LIBRARY ONLY)
set(CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH_MODE_INCLUDE ONLY)
The path/to/root/of/jetson/nano is a path to a root directory I created using rsync. The project compiles fine when I run cmake .. && make -j8 on the target machine.
Configuring on the host machine using cmake .. -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=../toolchain.cmake succeeds with:

However, when I run make -j8 I get an error on every include in the form:
fatal error: glm/gtc/matrix_transform.hpp: No such file or directory
4 | #include <glm/gtc/matrix_transform.hpp>
What's going on and how do I fix this?

Getting error in Cmake step in Dockerfile installation

I am new to Docker container and kubenetes cluster. I am trying to run following section of command using buildah
##install cmake

but get the following error. What am I missing here?

I'd simplify the Dockerfile to avoid the issues with the WORKDIR setup that I think are the cause of the problem:

CMake ninja custom target used as pre-build command modifies the files but ninja see the change of the depndecies during next build

I run some command before the actual build
add_custom_target("${PROJECT_BUILD_NUM_FILE}"
COMMAND ${PROJECT_BUILD_NUM_UPDATE} "-p" "-x" -f ${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/${MAIN_PATH}/${BOARD_NAME}/${PROJECT_BUILD_NUM_FILE}
)
add_dependencies(${EXECUTABLE_NAME} "${PROJECT_BUILD_NUM_FILE}" )

It looks like ninja is checking dependencies before the actual build starts and ignores meanwhile file changed. Is there any way to force cmake/ninja to recheck dependecies after custom target is build (ie prgram that thenges the build is run).
It looks like ninja is checking dependencies before the actual build starts and ignores meanwhile file change
Hey! Yes. Because DEPFILEs from C source files are generated at the same time as they are compiled, cmake has no way to know beforehand which file depends on which. It would have to do two passes - first to get dependencies and then to compile (which would be a nice feature, but actually hard to implement). It happens in one pass during compilation (-MD -MT flags), so cmake has no way of knowing that one file depends on that header. I also advise:
Do not modify files in your source tree. Keep all changes in BINARY_DIR.
Do not modify files. Generate new files. It's easier and generally, less state = less problems.
Try it such:
# Inside binary_dir
set(PROJECT_BUILD_NUM_FILE ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/gen/buildid_gen.h)
# Add #include <buildid_gen.h> to your buildid.h
add_custom_command(
OUTPUT ${PROJECT_BUILD_NUM_FILE}
COMMAND ${PROJECT_BUILD_NUM_UPDATE} "-p" "-x" -f ${PROJECT_BUILD_NUM_FILE}
DEPENDS ${PROJECT_BUILD_NUM_UPDATE}
)
add_custom_target(buildid_gen
COMMENT "Yooohooo!"
DEPENDS ${PROJECT_BUILD_NUM_FILE}
)
add_executable(${EXECUTABLE_NAME} ${PROJECT_BUILD_NUM_FILE} ${some_other_sources})
target_add_include_directories(${EXECTABLE_NAME} PUBLIC
# add include directory, so that buildid_gen is found
${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/gen
)
# this *helps*
add_dependencies(${EXECUTABLE_NAME} buildid_gen)
Is there any way to force cmake/ninja to recheck dependecies after custom target is build (ie prgram that thenges the build is run).
The real proper way ™ would be to manually track all files that depend on the file (you could think of grep -l '#include <buildid_gen.h> to get the list files) and communicate to cmake the dependency relation:
add_source_file_properties(${sources_that_include_buildid_gen} PROPERTIES OBJECT_DEPENDS ${PROJECT_BUILD_NUM_FILE})
Tracking dependencies is easier if you use a runtime interface (ie. long get_build_id();) cause then only one .c file that implements the interface will depend on the generated file.
There are also some projects that are compiled in two passes because of such dependencies, you have to first cmake .. --target buildid_gen and then cmake .. --target actually_compile each time you compile.
Also maybe execute_process is more appropriate if the file is setup once per build.

CMake and MinGW - "The C Compiler is not able to compile a simple test program"

I am using CMake and MinGW-w64 64-bit to build. I have used this exact same setup with the same compiler on my other PC and it has worked. Not sure what's wrong.
I have the MinGW-w64 bin in my PATH. When I run cmake and do not specify the compiler path, it generates MinGW Makefiles successfully. However, when I specify the compiler (which I know does work, I got it from winlibs.com) it produces the following log. I am running Windows 10.
Detecting C compiler ABI info failed to compile with the following output:

I think this may be a bug with CMake and MinGW Makefiles. Still not entirely sure what it is.
Anyways, I switched to the Ninja build system (https://ninja-build.org/) and all is working fine now.

correctly set the location of imported cmake targets for an installed package

I would like to be able to import targets from an installed library but
when using:
install(TARGETS
foobar
EXPORT foobarLibTargets
LIBRARY DESTINATION lib)
cmake generates a foobarLibTargets.cmake containing an absolute path:
set_target_properties(foobar PROPERTIES
IMPORTED_LOCATION_NOCONFIG "/where/I/happened/to/build/libfoobar.so"
IMPORTED_SONAME_NOCONFIG "libfoobar.so"
)
Such that a build using the imported target from the installation will fail as the path does not exist.
Q How can I get it to use the correct relative location instead?
This would be equivalent to:
set_target_properties(foobar PROPERTIES
IMPORTED_LOCATION_NOCONFIG "#PACKAGE_LIBRARY_INSTALL_DIR#/libfoobar.so")
If I look at another project which does something similar but works it has:
set_target_properties(foobar PROPERTIES
IMPORTED_LOCATION_RELEASE "${_IMPORT_PREFIX}/lib/libfoobar.so"
IMPORTED_SONAME_RELEASE "libfoobar.so"
)
Here are some example files that reproduce the issue:
CMakeLists.txt:
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.7)

cat foobar-gen
The output of cat foobar-gen is:
<TARGET_FILE:foobar>=/where/I/happened/to/build/libfoobar.so
I would like it to be:
<TARGET_FILE:foobar>=/where/I/actually/installed/libfoobar.so
Which it becomes if I uncomment the workaround.
Is there a way which avoids the workaround?
The related question - Strange issue with variables in a config-file cmake package - has similar code which both reproduces this issue and adds another one on top.
The main issue is that the two files foobarLibTargets.cmake and foobarTargets.cmake were both installed and the wrong one was picked up.
You will find below an improved project along with remarks to better organize the build system.
ChangeLog summarizing edits
2019-05-25
Create GitHub project to streamline reuse and adaptation. See https://github.com/jcfr/stackoverflow-56135785-answer
Rename project and source directory from foobar to FooBarLib, update Suggestions section accordingly
Improve build.sh
Updated suggestions (CPACK_PACKAGING_INSTALL_PREFIX should be absolute)
RPM:
Add support for building RPM package using make package
Update build.sh to display content of RPM package
Remarks
Two config files should be generated:
one for the build tree: this allow user of your project to directly build against your project and import targets
one for the install tree (which also end up being packaged)
Do not force the value of CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX
CPACK_PACKAGING_INSTALL_PREFIX should NOT be set to an absolute directory
For sake of consistency, use foobarTargets instead of foobarLibTargets
<projecname_uc> placeholder used below correspond to the name of the project upper-cased (ABC instead of abc)
To allow configuring your project when vendorized along other one, prefer variable with <projecname_uc>_. This means <projecname_uc>_INSTALL_LIBRARY_DIR is better than LIBRARY_INSTALL_DIR.
To allow user of the project to configure *_INSTALL_DIR variables, wrap them around if(DEFINED ...)
Consistently use variables (e.g LIBRARY_INSTALL_DIR should always be used instead of lib)
Prefer naming variable <projecname_uc>_INSTALL_*_DIR instead of <projecname_uc>_*_INSTALL_DIR, it make it easier to know the purpose of the variable when reading the code.
Since version is already associated with the project, there is no need to set VERSION variable. Instead, you can use PROJECT_VERSION or FOOBAR_VERSION
If starting a new project, prefer the most recent CMake version. CMake 3.13 instead of CMake 3.7
Introduced variable <projecname_uc>_INSTALL_CONFIG_DIR
<project_name>Targets.cmake should not be installed using install(FILES ...), it is already associated with an install rule
conditionally set CMAKE_INSTALL_RPATH, it is valid only on Linux
<project_name>Config.cmake.in:
there is no need to set FOOBAR_LIBRARY, this information is already associated with the exported foobar target
FOOBAR_LIBRARY_DIR is also not needed, this information is already associated with the exported foobar target
instead of setting FOOBAR_INCLUDE_DIR, the command target_include_directories should be used
remove setting of FOOBAR_VERSION, the generate version file already takes care of setting the version.
always specify ARCHIVE, LIBRARY and RUNTIME when declaring install rules for target. It avoid issue when switching library type. One less thing to think about.
always specify component with your install rule. It allows user of your project to selectively install part of it only development component or only runtime one, ...
initializing CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE is also important, it ensures the generated Targets file are associated with a configuration (instead of having the suffix -noconfig.cmake)

Only after instrumenting the source of cmake itself was I finally able to track this down.
The export and install commands are both capable of generating cmake files for targets.
The export command e.g.:
export(EXPORT foobarLibTargets
FILE "${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/foobarLibTargets.cmake")
creates a Targets.cmake referencing the build tree.
The install command e.g.:
install(EXPORT foobarLibTargets
FILE foobarTargets.cmake
DESTINATION lib/cmake)
creates a Targets.cmake referencing the relocatable install location.
This is essentially what #J-Christophe meant by saying that two files were installed and the wrong one was picked up.
I had wrongly assumed that the install command was only responsible for installing files and the export command was only responsible for generating them.
The documentation makes sense now
export(EXPORT [NAMESPACE ] [FILE ])
The file created by this command is specific to the build tree and
should never be installed. See the install(EXPORT) command to export
targets from an installation tree.
The workaround I had previously is no longer necesary.
For reference this was to explicitly set the correct location in the package's Config.cmake as in:
set(FOOBAR_VERSION #VERSION#)
#PACKAGE_INIT#
set_and_check(FOOBAR_INCLUDE_DIR "#PACKAGE_INCLUDE_INSTALL_DIR#")
set_and_check(FOOBAR_LIBRARY "#PACKAGE_LIBRARY_INSTALL_DIR#/libfoobar.so")
set_and_check(FOOBAR_LIBRARY_DIR "#PACKAGE_LIBRARY_INSTALL_DIR#")
include("${CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_DIR}/foobarLibTargets.cmake")
# workaround - correct absolute path in the above
# this shouldn't be necessary!
set_target_properties(foobar PROPERTIES
IMPORTED_LOCATION_NOCONFIG "#PACKAGE_LIBRARY_INSTALL_DIR#/libfoobar.so"
)
Most of the solutions here are misleading. It's by design working that way: https://github.com/Kitware/CMake/blob/f46c67de0e16293a40bbbade18aa7cee9edb02b0/Source/cmExportInstallFileGenerator.cxx#L184-L192
So if the DESTINATION in the install(EXPORT ...) statement is an absolute path, then hardcode it as absolute path in the exported package config files. Otherwise, generate the path dynamically using _IMPORT_PREFIX.

CMAKE build gui application with MinGW

I want to build gui application with SDL2. I link SDL2 libraries(libSDL2.dll.a and libSDL2main.a) but I don't know how a can apply -mwindows flag to my application. Without him .exe file of my application doesn't show window (executing have not any effect). I use MinGW-w64 my OS is Windows 10. In command line I can do this like here (see section B). How I can apply this flag with usage cmake? Console application works fine.
I try next variant but it doesn't work.
cmake -G "MinGW Makefiles" -D CMAKE_C_COMPILER=gcc -D CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=g++ -D CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS="-mwindows"
cmake -G "MinGW Makefiles" -D CMAKE_C_COMPILER=gcc -D CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=g++ -D CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS="-mwindows"
Also in CMakeLists.txt I try do like this
set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} -mwindows")
You can pass WIN32 argument to add_executable and CMake will do this for you:
add_executable(target_name WIN32 ${sources})
I basically copy-pasted the stuff, which CLion executes in the command line, and it worked:
$ cmake DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -G "CodeBlocks - MinGW Makefiles" ../
$ cmake --build ./ --target target_name -j 6

After this the executable target_name.exe appeared in the directory.
