Re: [CMake] How to add CMake includes and libraries to Visual Studio Solution?
I just use
include_directories( ... )
LINK_DIRECTORIES( ...} )
which works fine for specifying additional directories for that
project and all sub projects included.

For GCC projects anything is running fine and I could compile and link the

to add those directories manually to perform a compile and link. But this is
stupid and boring...
I tried to set the following CMake variables:
INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES
LINK_DIRECTORIES
CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH
but nothing happend. If i open the project, the additional include directory
of the solution is always empty (only standard MSVE settings are given). I
tired to set this variables after executable creation, but this has also no
effect.
I also tried to set the MSVC environment variables INCLUDE and PATH with
SET(ENV${PATH} c:\test\...\) but this also has no effect. The directories
of the MSVC solution are empty.
This is what i do directly in the header of the cmake file:
CMAKE_MINIMUM_REQUIRED(VERSION 2.6)
PROJECT(${MODULE_NAME})
IF (MSVC)
# Activate C++ exception handling
IF (NOT CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS MATCHES /EHsc)
SET(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS ${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} /EHsc)
ENDIF ()
# Set Warning level always to 4
IF (CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS MATCHES /W[0-4])
string(REGEX REPLACE /W[0-4] /W4 CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS ${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS})
ELSE ()
set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS ${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} /W4)
ENDIF ()
#read path of dependency modules
file(READ msvc.deps MSVC_PROPERTIES)
STRING(REGEX REPLACE ; ; MSVC_PROPERTIES ${MSVC_PROPERTIES})
STRING(REGEX REPLACE \n ; MSVC_PROPERTIES ${MSVC_PROPERTIES})
FOREACH(e ${MSVC_PROPERTIES})
SET(INCLUDE ${INCLUDE} ${e})
MESSAGE(STATUS [INFO]: Value ${e})
ENDFOREACH(e)
INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES(${INCLUDE})
ENDIF ()
In the .deps file I've added to path of my dependeny modules, line separated:
c:\binrev\development\boost\1.47\includes
c:\binrev\repository\modules\brCore\trunk\includes
Both are read successfully but couldn't be set as additional include
directory in my MSVC solution.

Re: [CMake] How to add CMake includes and libraries to Visual Studio Solution?
Where did you define your INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES? I also tried to set an absolute
path instead of using the CMake list, same result. Nothing is set...
Here is the link to the complete cmake file:

Re: [CMake] How to add CMake includes and libraries to Visual Studio Solution?
Where did you define your INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES? I also tried to set an absolute path instead of using the CMake list, same result. Nothing is set... For me this works as well. Define INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES anywhere above the ADD_EXECUTABLE or ADD_LIBRARY and visual studio will use it. -- John M.

Hmm this is strange, INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES is used but no effect. I try to set: INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES(C:/binrev/development/boost/1.47/) But the additional directory entry of my MSVC solution holds only the default settings: $(VCInstallDir)include;$(VCInstallDir)atlmfc\include;$(WindowsSdkDir)include;$(FrameworkSDKDir)\include; Is there any chance that i could check if INCLUDE_DIRECORIES is set correctly by CMake?

Thanks for support. Anything is working fine as described by you.
I've only checked the wrong solution folders ...

I try to set:

Should be INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES(${Boost_INCLUDE_DIRS}), no? We have such a
shiny
FindBoost.cmake that does all the work for you ;)
Yes it should be and it is, this was only for simple test...
But the additional directory entry of my MSVC solution holds only
the default settings:
$(VCInstallDir)include;$(VCInstallDir)atlmfc\include;$(WindowsSdkDir)include
;$(FrameworkSDKDir)\include;
Is there any chance that i could check if INCLUDE_DIRECORIES is
set correctly by CMake? Maybe the settings are truncated by visual
studio ..
You need to use INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES() before doing the ADD_SUBDIRECTORY(),
ADD_EXECUTABLE(), or ADD_LIBRARY() that should use it.

I think the problem with that is if built with gcc, then the full path to the library is encoded and you can't load the library from the library path, but only from where it was specified. Thats not correct. Runtime loading of libraries depends on the runtime linker used, which is ld on Linux usually. And that one finds libraries by checking its ld.so.conf, the LD_LIBRARY_PATH and a possibly-existing RPATH/RUNPATH setting in the executable. On Windows the runtime-linker looks through the PATH variable, in the directory where the executable is and at a few system-places. What you might refer to is CMake's support for RPATH/RUNPATH on Linux, but this can be turned off, tuned so the path is relative to the executable and the linker simply ignores that if it cannot find a library at the specified place and falls back to the other two options.
