Rok Mihevc updated ARROW-4383:
------------------------------
External issue URL: https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/15952
> [C++] Use the CMake's standard find features
> --------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ARROW-4383
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-4383
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: C++
> Reporter: Kouhei Sutou
> Assignee: Uwe Korn
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 0.13.0
>
>
> From https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/3469#discussion_r250862542
> We implement our custom find codes to find libraries by
> {{find_library()}}/{{find_path()}} with {{NO_DEFAULT_PATH}}. So we need to
> handle {{lib64/}} (on Red Hat) and {{lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/}} (on Debian)
> paths manually.
> If we use the CMake's standard find features such as {{CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH}}
> https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.13/variable/CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH.html#variable:CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH
> , we can remove our custom find codes.
> CMake has package specific find path feature by {{<PackageName}_ROOT}} since
> 3.12. It's equivalent of our {{<PackageName}_HOME}}.

> If called from within a find module loaded by
> {{find_package(<PackageName>)}}, search prefixes unique to the current
> package being found. Specifically look in the {{<PackageName>_ROOT}} CMake
> variable and the {{<PackageName>_ROOT}} environment variable. The package
> root variables are maintained as a stack so if called from nested find
> modules, root paths from the parent’s find module will be searched after
> paths from the current module, i.e. {{<CurrentPackage>_ROOT}},
> {{ENV\{<CurrentPackage>_ROOT}}}, {{<ParentPackage>_ROOT}},
> {{ENV\{<ParentPackage>_ROOT}}}, etc.
