The following issue has been SUBMITTED. ====================================================================== https://cmake.org/Bug/view.php?id=16028 ====================================================================== Reported By: David Wagner Assigned To: ====================================================================== Project: CMake Issue ID: 16028 Category: Modules Reproducibility: always Severity: minor Priority: normal Status: new ====================================================================== Date Submitted: 2016-03-22 06:54 EDT Last Modified: 2016-03-22 06:54 EDT ====================================================================== Summary: find_dependency not looking for the correct FOUND variable Description: find_package(Xyz) may set either XYZ_FOUND (the default) or Xyz_FOUND (if overriden by the called) but find_dependency will only look for Xyz_FOUND.
This means that calling, for instance, "find_dependency(LibXml2)" will always fail because upon finding the package, the LIBXML2_FOUND variable is set. See a patch below. If you'd prefer, I can submit it on github. --- /usr/share/cmake-3.2/Modules/CMakeFindDependencyMacro.cmake 2015-04-13 19:09:00.000000000 +0200 +++ cmake/CMakeFindDependencyMacro.cmake 2016-03-22 11:24:08.959963959 +0100 @@ -72,7 +72,8 @@ set_property(GLOBAL PROPERTY _CMAKE_${dep}_TRANSITIVE_DEPENDENCY TRUE) endif() - if (NOT ${dep}_FOUND) + string(TOUPPER ${dep} DEP) + if (NOT ${DEP}_FOUND AND NOT ${dep}_FOUND) set(${CMAKE_FIND_PACKAGE_NAME}_NOT_FOUND_MESSAGE "${CMAKE_FIND_PACKAGE_NAME} could not be found because dependency ${dep} could not be found.") set(${CMAKE_FIND_PACKAGE_NAME}_FOUND False) return() ====================================================================== Issue History Date Modified Username Field Change ====================================================================== 2016-03-22 06:54 David Wagner New Issue ====================================================================== -- Powered by www.kitware.com Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Kitware offers various services to support the CMake community.
