cmake link error on linking shared library hierarchy to executable - cmake

Question

In my project I have the following configuration:
low level shared library
shared library that is a wrapper of low level shared library
executable
so the files tree is :
CMakeLists.txt
SharedLibraryBase
CMakeLists.txt
inc
myLibBase.h -> defines MyLibBaseFunction()
src
myLibBase.cpp -> implements MyLibBaseFunction()
MySharedLibrary
CMakeLists.txt
inc
myLib.h -> defines MyLibFunction()
src
myLib.cpp -> implements MyLibFunction()
Executables
CMakeLists.txt
inc
main.h
src
main.cpp -> calls MyLibFunction()
When I perform make , I get a following link error:
ld.exe: cannot find -lMySharedLibrary
the main CMakeLists.txt is:
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.5)
project(TestSharedLibraryProject)
set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} -std=c++11")
set(CMAKE_RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY "my_outputs")
message("Binary tree path : ${PROJECT_BINARY_DIR}")
add_subdirectory(SharedLibraryBase)
add_subdirectory(MySharedLibrary)
add_subdirectory(Executables)
the low level shared library CMakeLists.txt is:
###########################
# SharedLibraiesBase #
###########################
project(SharedLibraryBase)
# include directories
include_directories(${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR} ${Boost_INCLUDE_DIRS} ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/inc)
# find source files
set(${PROJECT_NAME}_headers inc/myLibBase.h)
set(${PROJECT_NAME}_sources src/myLib.cpp)
# create shared library
add_library(${PROJECT_NAME} SHARED ${${PROJECT_NAME}_headers} ${${PROJECT_NAME}_sources})
# add files to export to 'include'
set_property(TARGET ${PROJECT_NAME} PROPERTY PUBLIC_HEADER inc/myLibBase.h)
install (TARGETS ${PROJECT_NAME}
RUNTIME DESTINATION bin
LIBRARY DESTINATION lib
ARCHIVE DESTINATION lib/static
PUBLIC_HEADER DESTINATION include)
the wrapper shared library CMakeLists.txt is:
#######################
# SharedLibraies #
#######################
project(MySharedLibrary)
# include directories
include_directories(${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR} ${Boost_INCLUDE_DIRS} inc ../SharedLibraryBase/inc)
# find source files
set(${PROJECT_NAME}_headers inc/myLib.h)
set(${PROJECT_NAME}_sources src/myLib.cpp)
# create shared library
add_library(${PROJECT_NAME} SHARED ${${PROJECT_NAME}_headers} ${${PROJECT_NAME}_sources})
#dependency shared library (from this project)
target_link_libraries(${PROJECT_NAME} SharedLibraryBase)
# add files to export to 'include'
set_property(TARGET ${PROJECT_NAME} PROPERTY PUBLIC_HEADER inc/myLib.h)
install (TARGETS ${PROJECT_NAME}
RUNTIME DESTINATION bin
LIBRARY DESTINATION lib
ARCHIVE DESTINATION lib/static
PUBLIC_HEADER DESTINATION include)
the executable CMakeLists.txt is:
####################
# Executables #
####################
project(Executables)
# include directories
include_directories(${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR} ${Boost_INCLUDE_DIRS}/inc ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/../MySharedLibrary/inc)
set(${PROJECT_NAME}_headers inc/main.h)
set(${PROJECT_NAME}_sources src/main.cpp)
#create executable
add_executable(${PROJECT_NAME} ${${PROJECT_NAME}_headers} ${${PROJECT_NAME}_sources})
#dependency shared library (from this project)
target_link_libraries(${PROJECT_NAME} MyShraedLibrary)
install (TARGETS ${PROJECT_NAME}
RUNTIME DESTINATION bin
LIBRARY DESTINATION lib
ARCHIVE DESTINATION lib/static)

Answer 1

You have ordinary type error MyShraedLibrary instead of MySharedLibrary
