CMake FindSFML Guide

[OniLinkPlus]

Can someone explain to me how to use FindSFML? I can't find any information on it. Specifically, how do I choose between locating the Debug modules and Release modules?

Code: [Select]


FIND_PACKAGE (
    SFML
    REQUIRED system window graphics # audio network if you want
)

INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES ( ${SFML_INCLUDE_DIR} )

...
TARGET_LINK_LIBRARIES (
   myexe
# like
   ${SFML_GRAPHICS_LIBRARY}
   ${SFML_WINDOW_LIBRARY}
# or like
   ${SFML_SYSTEM_LIBRARY_DEBUG}


Edit the findSFML.cmake file Laurent explains it at the beginning .

Slightly improved/fixed example:

Code: [Select]

FIND_PACKAGE (
    SFML
    COMPONENTS system window graphics # audio network if you want
    REQUIRED
)

INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES ( ${SFML_INCLUDE_DIR} )

...
TARGET_LINK_LIBRARIES (
   myexe
   optimized
   ${SFML_GRAPHICS_LIBRARY}
   ${SFML_WINDOW_LIBRARY}
   ${SFML_SYSTEM_LIBRARY}
   debug
   ${SFML_GRAPHICS_LIBRARY_DEBUG}
   ${SFML_WINDOW_LIBRARY_DEBUG}
   ${SFML_SYSTEM_LIBRARY_DEBUG}
)
Options are explained at the beginning of the file (it's always like this with FindXxx.cmake files).

This is perfect! Thank you!
