I want to build Cap’n Proto from source as part of my project; I know it’s preferred to download a release, but I need to support iOS and there are no releases for that AFAIK.
The build instructions at https://capnproto.org/install.html <https://capnproto.org/install.html> seem out of date; they say to use autoconf, but the current sources have a CMakeFile and I found that the usual CMake build command work fine: mkdir build_cmake && cd build_cmake cmake .. make However, if I add capnproto as a subdirectory to my project’s CMakeLists.txt: add_subdirectory(vendor/capnproto) it doesn’t build. During the initial ‘cmake’ command for my project, I get several errors of the form: CMake Error at vendor/capnproto/c++/cmake/CapnProtoMacros.cmake:106 (add_custom_command): Error evaluating generator expression: $<TARGET_FILE:CapnProto::capnp_tool> No target "CapnProto::capnp_tool" Call Stack (most recent call first): CMakeLists.txt:113 (capnp_generate_cpp) I have no idea what this means, or what to do about it… —Jens -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cap'n Proto" group.
