I am trying to write an OpenGL application with GLFW. The file structure is as follows
-USG -build -include -glfw-3.3 -src -CMakeLists.txt -main.cpp -CMakeLists.txt The CMake in the USG file is as follows.
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.0) project(USG) #-------------------------------------------------------------------- # Set GLFW variables #-------------------------------------------------------------------- set(GLFW_BUILD_DOCS OFF CACHE BOOL "" FORCE) set(GLFW_BUILD_TESTS OFF CACHE BOOL "" FORCE) set(GLFW_BUILD_EXAMPLES OFF CACHE BOOL "" FORCE) #-------------------------------------------------------------------- # Add subdirectories #-------------------------------------------------------------------- add_subdirectory(include/glfw-3.3) add_subdirectory(src) And the CMakeLists in the src file is as follows
add_executable(usg main.cpp) set(OpenGL_GL_PREFERENCE GLVND) find_package(OpenGL REQUIRED) if (OPENGL_FOUND) target_include_directories(usg PUBLIC ${OPENGL_INCLUDE_DIR}) target_link_libraries(usg ${OPENGL_gl_LIBRARY}) endif() target_link_libraries(usg glfw) I run cmake ../ followed by make in the build folder. Running cmake runs as expected. Running make builds glfw fine but when it gets to main.cpp it fails at #include <GLFW\glfw3.h> telling me GLFW\glfw3.h: No such file or directory. It seems to me like the cmake isn't properly linking the header file to the main.cpp file, but I don't know enough about cmake to get that to work. I've tried looking through the examples provided in the glfw-3.3 example folder but I couldn't make enough sense of it to solve my problem. I've tried drawing what knowledge I could from the many similar problems on stack overflow but none of them could help.
I'm following this tutorial here. I want the OpenGL application to be relatively portable, which is why I'm compiling glfw from source rather than using a binary. I'm building on Linux, if that matters.
