Hi,
I built and installed FreeGLUT in a custom location in my home
directory (Note: it's a custom location, but I also have pkg-config
installed on my PATH, and I did set it up so that when I do
'pkg-config --list-all' it successfully detects FreeGLUT in the
location where I installed it).
Now I'm trying to build a project that has find_package(GLUT REQUIRED)
and, as I would expect, it detects the system GLUT that comes standard
with MacOS. But for this particular build, I want it to find FreeGLUT
instead of the system GLUT. How can I force finding FreeGLUT?
Thanks a lot in advance,
Hi ardi:
In your cmake installation take a look at
$PREFIX/share/cmake-3.14/Modules/FindGLUT.cmake
where you will find no mention of PkgConfig, i.e., CMake does not
use pkg-config to find GLUT. Instead, it uses native CMake find
methods which are documented at e.g.,
<https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/command/find_path.html>.
And if you look into that documentation you can find a number of
environment variables that control which GLUT installation location is found
such as CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH.
Hope that helps.
Alan
