C++ AVRO , CMAKE failed - cmake

I am building AVRO C++, but when I build with CMAKE, I have some troubles. My CMAKE version is 3.5, and Boost version is 1.73.0.
Error:
CMake Error at /usr/local/lib/cmake/Boost-1.73.0/BoostConfig.cmake:240 (if):
if given arguments:
"ALL" "IN_LIST" "Boost_FIND_COMPONENTS"
Unknown arguments specified

This behavior is specified in CMP0057. You should either bump the minimum CMake version of your project to 3.3:
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.3)
or explicitly set the policy to the NEW behavior:
cmake_policy(SET CMP0057 NEW)

Cmake: using conan pybind11 package

I'm having trouble understanding how to use pybind11 conan package. I can use some others, but pybind11 is giving me hard time.
My starting point is as follows:
conanfile.txt:
[requires]
pybind11/2.7.1
[generators]
cmake
main.cpp:
#include <pybind11/pybind11.h>
int add(int i, int j) {return i + j;}
PYBIND11_MODULE(cobind, m) {m.def("add", &add);}
CMakeLists.txt
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.21)
project(cobind11 VERSION 1.0 LANGUAGES CXX)
include(${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/conanbuildinfo.cmake)
conan_basic_setup()
pybind11_add_module(cobind main.cpp)
The log of my suffering trying to make this work:
💀 Starting point
If I try to build as above the project I get the following error:
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:10 (pybind11_add_module):
Unknown CMake command "pybind11_add_module".
-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!
💀💀 Adding find_package(pybind11 REQUIRED)
If I add a line find_package(pybind11 REQUIRED) I get the following error:
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:16 (find_package):
By not providing "Findpybind11.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this project has
asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by "pybind11",
but CMake did not find one.
💀💀💀 Adding include([...]/pybind11Tools.cmake)
If I add a line #include(${CONAN_PYBIND11_ROOT}/lib/cmake/pybind11/pybind11Tools.cmake) I get the following error:
CMake Error at /home/[...]/pybind11Tools.cmake:100 (set_property):
set_property could not find TARGET pybind11::pybind11. Perhaps it has not yet been created.
like in this issue https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/issues/3388. Maybe it is fixed in the new release?
💀💀💀💀 Upgrading to 2.8.1
The fresh pybind11 is 2.8.1, let's upgrade
pybind11/2.8.1: Not found in local cache, looking in remotes...
pybind11/2.8.1: Trying with 'conancenter'...
ERROR: Unable to find 'pybind11/2.8.1' in remotes
OK. One can read between the lines, that it used to work, so maybe let's downgrade?
💀💀💀💀💀 Downgrading to 2.4.3
If I require pybind/2.4.3 instead of pybind/2.7.1 in conanfile.txt I get
fatal error: Python.h: No such file or directory
112 | #include <Python.h>
| ^~~~~~~~~
like in this issue https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/issues/1781. Differently from that issue, installing python*-dev does not help. But whatever, I don't want to use old pybind anyway.
💀💀💀💀💀💀 Trying a conanfile from test package
The conancentral recipes contain a test package (https://github.com/conan-io/conan-center-index/tree/master/recipes/pybind11/all/test_package), which is tested automatically when the package is created. Let's try that instead!
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:13 (find_package):
By not providing "Findpybind11.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this project has
asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by "pybind11",
but CMake did not find one.
Am I just hopeless???
Maybe, but! I can:
💪 Build the https://github.com/pybind/cmake_example
💪 Build the https://github.com/pybind/python_example
💪 Build the conancentral pybind11 recipe! The same that fails when I extract the test package to a separate folder. Whaaat?? 😱
I have used pybind in the past (two or three years ago) and it worked without problems with conan. However, I tried to install it now and faced similar problems. This might be related to the evolution of conan towards conan 2.0 (an alpha version was released today) and that the recipe was not updated to account changes.
An alternative that you might consider, is to install pybind with conan using a different generator. More specifically, the CMakeDeps generator. With the CMakeDeps generator conan will create a pybind11-config.cmake file for you and you just need to use find_package(pybind11 REQUIRED) in CMakeLists.txt. That is, there is no "conan specific stuff" in your CMakeLists.txt file.
conanfile.txt
[requires]
pybind11/2.7.1
[generators]
CMakeDeps
CMakeLists.txt
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.21)
project(cobind11 VERSION 1.0 LANGUAGES CXX)
# Tell cmake to also search in the buld folder for the "<library>-config.cmake"
# files
list(APPEND CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH "${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}")
find_package(pybind11 REQUIRED)
pybind11_add_module(cobind main.cpp)
main.cpp
#include <pybind11/pybind11.h>
int add(int i, int j) { return i + j; }
PYBIND11_MODULE(cobind, m) { m.def("add", &add); }
With this I was able to build the library and use it in Python.
Conan deeper integration with CMake
You can also use the CMakeToolchain generator in addition to the CMakeDeps generator. It generates a conan_toolchain.cmake file that you pass to the cmake command with --toolchain conan_toolchain.cmake. If you use it, there is no need to add the list(APPEND CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH "${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}") line to your CMakeLists.txt file. Furthermore, the settings you specify in conan, such as build type and compiler, will impact cmake. That is, you don't need to specify these things in both conan and cmake. This seems to be where conan is going, regarding cmake integration, in the comming 2.0 release.

Cmake errors when using LLVM 5.0.0 from brew

I'm trying to use the stock LLVM 5.0.0 provided by Homebrew (MacOS High Sierra 10.13.3). LLVM is installed on my machine under /usr/local/Cellar/llvm/5.0.0/
Now, in my project, I have the following lines in CMakeLists.txt:
# Find the LLVM library
find_package( LLVM 5.0.0 REQUIRED )
include_directories( "${LLVM_INCLUDE_DIRS}" )
link_directories(${LLVM_LIBRARY_DIRS})
message(STATUS "LLVM include dirs: ${LLVM_INCLUDE_DIRS}")
If I run CMake without any parameters, I get:
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:74 (find_package):
By not providing "FindLLVM.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this project has
asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by "LLVM", but
CMake did not find one.
Could not find a package configuration file provided by "LLVM" (requested
version 5.0.0) with any of the following names:
LLVMConfig.cmake
llvm-config.cmake
Add the installation prefix of "LLVM" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set
"LLVM_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above files. If "LLVM"
provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it has been
installed.
It tells me that it couldn't find LLVM. So, I pass the path to the LLVM_DIR, like this:
cmake .. -DLLVM_DIR=/usr/local/Cellar/llvm/5.0.0/share/cmake/modules/
I would expect everything to work. Instead I get the following error:
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:74 (find_package):
Could not find a configuration file for package "LLVM" that is compatible
with requested version "5.0.0".
The following configuration files were considered but not accepted:
/usr/local/Cellar/llvm/5.0.0/share/cmake/modules/llvm-config.cmake,
version: unknown
For some reason the version is not present anywhere in the share/cmake/modules directory.
How can I fix this, without changing the brew-installed LLVM?
Found the answer. I was passing a wrong path to LLVM_DIR.
I just have to use another directory (buried in lib, not in share):
cmake .. -DLLVM_DIR=/usr/local/Cellar/llvm/5.0.0/lib/cmake/llvm/
Not sure why brew decided to install 2 versions of CMake helpers for LLVM, one in share and one in lib.

Is CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS_PROFILE deprecated in CMake?

I am maintaining an old project, and find following statements in CMakeList.txt:
set (CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS_PROFILE "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} -pg")
set (CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS_PROFILE "${CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS} -pg")
But I can't find these variable definitions in my current cmake:
# cmake --help-variable-list | grep PROFILE
#
My cmake version is 3.7.2:
# cmake --version
cmake version 3.7.2
CMake suite maintained and supported by Kitware (kitware.com/cmake).
So are CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS_PROFILE and CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS_PROFILE deprecated? If they existed, what is the function of them?
If we are talking about makefile generators you can just do
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Profile ..
Anyone can invent new configuration types in their project as in this case it seems to have been done.
Just a hint: The code could even be simplified since the flags will anyway be concatenated like CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS + CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS_PROFILE.

Unknown CMake Command "slicerMacroBuildScriptedModule"

Currently I am trying to build PlusRemote from SlicerIGT, but I keep getting errors that don't make much sense to me. I downloaded SlicerIGT from GitHub here, and I made sure to update CMake to version 3.2.3. The directory I am getting the source from should be fine. This is the error log I am getting:
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:19 (slicerMacroBuildScriptedModule):
Unknown CMake command "slicerMacroBuildScriptedModule".
CMake Warning (dev) in CMakeLists.txt:
No cmake_minimum_required command is present. A line of code such as
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.2)
should be added at the top of the file. The version specified may be lower
if you wish to support older CMake versions for this project. For more
information run "cmake --help-policy CMP0000".
This warning is for project developers. Use -Wno-dev to suppress it.
Is there any way to solve this, or is there a better way to go about building PlusRemote?
EDIT:
I managed to specify the minimum required version so now the only error I am getting is:
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:19 (slicerMacroBuildScriptedModule):
Unknown CMake command "slicerMacroBuildScriptedModule".
If anything, this is what CMake is reading:
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
set(MODULE_NAME PlusRemote)
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.2)
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
set(MODULE_PYTHON_SCRIPTS
${MODULE_NAME}.py
)
set(MODULE_PYTHON_RESOURCES
Resources/Icons/${MODULE_NAME}.png
Resources/Icons/icon_Record.png
Resources/Icons/icon_Stop.png
Resources/Icons/icon_Wait.png
Resources/Icons/VisibleOff.png
Resources/Icons/VisibleOn.png
)
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
slicerMacroBuildScriptedModule(
NAME ${MODULE_NAME}
SCRIPTS ${MODULE_PYTHON_SCRIPTS}
RESOURCES ${MODULE_PYTHON_RESOURCES}
WITH_GENERIC_TESTS
)
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
if(BUILD_TESTING)
# Register the unittest subclass in the main script as a ctest.
# Note that the test will also be available at runtime.
slicer_add_python_unittest(SCRIPT ${MODULE_NAME}.py)
# Additional build-time testing
add_subdirectory(Testing)
endif()
Did I miss downloading or updating anything?
EDIT: Is this what I'm missing?
PlusRemote does not need to be built using CMake in order to have Plus run. Plus will start on it's own. Wish I had known this 3 hours ago.

Unknown Cmake command "add_llvm_tool"

I am trying to build llvm from source using Cmake.
I have an error coming when Cmake is trying to build it : Unknown CMake command "add_llvm_tool".
I don't know why there is this error, here is my CMakeLists.txt file
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.2)
set(LLVM_LINK_COMPONENTS
${LLVM_TARGETS_TO_BUILD}
Core
Object
Support
)
add_llvm_tool(llvm-nm
llvm-nm.cpp
)
You need to include(AddLLVM.cmake) to have this macro defined.
