Thread: Compiling errors and using Cmake Set Policy

Compiling errors and using Cmake Set Policy

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hello,

I'm new to the world of compiling in Linux and I thought this is the best place to ask questions!

I discovered the project I'm trying to compile has two add_executable targets that share the same name in two different folders. Both of these add_executable targets are in two separate CMakeList.txt files.

for example

/home/mdtom//icap/core/CMakeList.txt

/home/mdtom//icap/gui/CMakeList.txt


When compiling in Ubuntu jaunty 9.04 with cmake 2.6, it has the new cmake_policy parameters to help programmers.

The --help-policy CMP0002 suggested I use the OUTPUT_NAME property but I get entirely new errors when trying the following"



Code:

Code:

#/home/programmer/toolb/icap/core/CMakeList.txt

ADD_EXECUTABLE(test_f1 test.cpp)
SET_TARGET_PROPERTIES(test_f1 OUTPUT_NAME test)

 #/home/programmer/toolb/icap/gui/CMakeList.txt

ADD_EXECUTABLE(test_f2 main.cpp)
SET_TARGET_PROPERTIES(test_f2 OUTPUT_NAME test)

Is there a better approach to eliminating the error or am I on the right path?
I'm open to any suggestions.

Below is the output from the cmake.

Thanks,

E

CMake Warning (dev) at gui/CMakeLists.txt:12 (add_executable):
Policy CMP0002 is not set: Logical target names must be globally unique.
Run "cmake --help-policy CMP0002" for policy details. Use the cmake_policy

CMake Warning (dev) at core/CMakeLists.txt:25 (add_executable):
Policy CMP0003 should be set before this line. Add code such as

if(COMMAND cmake_policy)
cmake_policy(SET CMP0003 NEW)
endif(COMMAND cmake_policy)

as early as possible but after the most recent call to
cmake_minimum_required or cmake_policy(VERSION). This warning appears
because target "test" links to some libraries for which the linker must
search:

Magick++, MagickCore

and other libraries with known full path:

/home/mdtom//icap/core/libcore.a
/home/mdtom//icap/build/ext/newmat/libnewmat.a

CMake is adding directories in the second list to the linker search path in
case they are needed to find libraries from the first list (for backwards
compatibility with CMake 2.4). Set policy CMP0003 to OLD or NEW to enable
or disable this behavior explicitly. Run "cmake --help-policy CMP0003" for
more information.
This warning is for project developers. Use -Wno-dev to suppress it.
