cmake's Introduction

CMake

Introduction

CMake is a cross-platform, open-source build system generator. For full documentation visit the CMake Home Page and the CMake Documentation Page. The CMake Community Wiki also references useful guides and recipes.

CMake is maintained and supported by Kitware and developed in collaboration with a productive community of contributors.

License

CMake is distributed under the OSI-approved BSD 3-clause License. See Copyright.txt for details.

Building CMake

Supported Platforms

Microsoft Windows
Apple macOS
Linux
FreeBSD
OpenBSD
Solaris
AIX

Other UNIX-like operating systems may work too out of the box, if not it should not be a major problem to port CMake to this platform. Please post to the CMake Discourse Forum to ask if others have had experience with the platform.

Building CMake from Scratch

UNIX/Mac OSX/MinGW/MSYS/Cygwin

You need to have a C++ compiler (supporting C++11) and a make installed. Run the bootstrap script you find in the source directory of CMake. You can use the --help option to see the supported options. You may use the --prefix=<install_prefix> option to specify a custom installation directory for CMake. Once this has finished successfully, run make and make install.

For example, if you simply want to build and install CMake from source, you can build directly in the source tree:

$ ./bootstrap && make && sudo make install

Or, if you plan to develop CMake or otherwise run the test suite, create a separate build tree:

$ mkdir build && cd build
$ ../bootstrap && make

Windows

There are two ways for building CMake under Windows:

Compile with MSVC from VS 2015 or later. You need to download and install a binary release of CMake. You can get these releases from the CMake Download Page. Then proceed with the instructions below for Building CMake with CMake.
Bootstrap with MinGW under MSYS2. Download and install MSYS2. Then install the required build tools:
```
$ pacman -S --needed git base-devel mingw-w64-x86_64-gcc
```
and bootstrap as above.

Building CMake with CMake

You can build CMake as any other project with a CMake-based build system: run the installed CMake on the sources of this CMake with your preferred options and generators. Then build it and install it. For instructions how to do this, see documentation on Running CMake.

To build the documentation, install Sphinx and configure CMake with -DSPHINX_HTML=ON and/or -DSPHINX_MAN=ON to enable the "html" or "man" builder. Add -DSPHINX_EXECUTABLE=/path/to/sphinx-build if the tool is not found automatically.

Reporting Bugs

If you have found a bug:

If you have a patch, please read the CONTRIBUTING.rst document.
Otherwise, please post to the CMake Discourse Forum and ask about the expected and observed behaviors to determine if it is really a bug.
Finally, if the issue is not resolved by the above steps, open an entry in the CMake Issue Tracker.

cmake's Issues

Cmake 3.1.x generates WinMD reference HintPaths with unnecessary quotes

We've been using a build of cmake 3.1.x for some time now to build Windows Phone 8.1 and Store apps. If we add a reference to a winmd file on disk and the path contains spaces, the resulting entry in the vcxproj is incorrectly quoted.

Here's where we add the reference:

set_property(TARGET MyTarget
  PROPERTY VS_WINRT_REFERENCES
  "C:/ProgramData/Application\ Data/some/path/to/Component.winmd"
)

And the resulting section of the vcxproj is:

<Reference Include="Component">
      <IsWinMDFile>true</IsWinMDFile>
      <HintPath>"C:\ProgramData\Application Data\some\path\to\Component.winmd"</HintPath>    </Reference>

So when we run MSBuild, we get errors about being unable to resolve the reference, notably:

For SearchPath "{HintPathFromItem}".
                 Considered ""C:\ProgramData\Application Data\some\path\to\Component.winmd"", but it didn't exist.

CMAKE_SIZEOF_VOID_P not always declared

CMAKE_SIZEOF_VOID_P is empty for sparc, tried niagara3 (Oracle Sparc T3)

Add Windows Driver Kit (UMDF/KMDF) support

The Windows SDK discovery is already embedded in CMake, but the Driver toolkit could not be found. Especially it isn't defined how to specify the target platform (e.g., Windows 7/Desktop or Windows 10/Mobile) and how to generate UMDF/KMDF Visual Studio solutions

CSharp

Please, consider adding CS language to Project command.

This appears to be an issue with the CMake artifacts that come with VS's version of CMake. Anybody know of a workaround?

cmake and cmake tools extensions installed but not added to path

I have a fresh installation of vscode and installed the cmake and cmake tools extensions. When I run cmake: configure, I get the following error:
Bad CMake executable "". Is it installed or settings contain the correct path (cmake.cmakePath)?
When I try "cmake -version" in the terminal it appears it hasn't been loaded into environment variables path. Here's that error:
cmake : The term 'cmake' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was
included, verify that the path is correct and try again.
At line:1 char:1

cmake -version

  + CategoryInfo          : ObjectNotFound: (cmake:String) [], CommandNotFoundException
  + FullyQualifiedErrorId : CommandNotFoundException

I can manually add it to my path environment variable but I have no idea where it's installed. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

add_test parsing - a mysterious ArgsSep appears

I am using visual studio 2019 (latest build - with cmake 3.14.4)
When using
cmd= python.exe;C:\Users\peter\proc.py;test_1;C:\Users\peter\foo.wav
add_test(NAME bla COMMAND ${cmd})
On Linux as well and in cmd.exe + powershell this makes the "bla" test run
python C:\Users\peter\proc.py test_1 C:\Users\peter\foo.wav

However in visual studio 2019 I get and error
Message: python.exe: can't open file 'C:\Users\peter\proc.py__ArgsSep__test_eq_1__ArgsSep__C:\Users\peter\foo.wav__ArgsSep': [Errno 2] No such file or directory

i.e. some odd voodoo replacement of the list spacer ";" into "_ _ ArgsSep _ _" goes really wrong (i.e. double underscore before and after the ArgsSep)

CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD is ignored when using clang-cl

When setting the following flags in CMakeSettings.json:
-DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=clang-cl -DCMAKE_CXX_STANDARD=17

The /std:c++17 isn't appended to clang-cl's command line.

Even with set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD 17) in CMakeLists.txt, the flag still isn't correctly applied to clang-cl. The only way to enable the flag was explicitly with set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "/std:c++17").

I'm using Visual Studio 15.8.9 (CMake version 3.11.18040201-MSVC_2). If I generate a Ninja build with CMake 3.12.3 then the flag is correctly appended, so it's either been fixed in upstream, or it's unique to the Microsoft fork.

CMAKE_WINDOWS_EXPORT_ALL_SYMBOLS breaks UWP arm builds

set(CMAKE_WINDOWS_EXPORT_ALL_SYMBOLS ON) will break UWP arm builds. The export tool used by cmake only seems to support x86 and x64 obj files and cannot parse arm obj files.

For example, the vcpkg project uses CMAKE_WINDOWS_EXPORT_ALL_SYMBOLS to generate the export symbols for freetype. All builds work except for UWP arm builds. cmake.exe is not able to parse the arm object files.

https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg/blob/master/ports/freetype/0001-Support-Windows-DLLs-via-CMAKE_WINDOWS_EXPORT_ALL_SY.patch

Here is a description of the CMAKE_WINDOWS_EXPORT_ALL_SY feature:

Tag versions shipped with VS

To aid in troubleshooting, it would be helpful if every version shipped with Visual Studio was tagged in the repository.

I'm honestly not sure if it would be a good idea to provide binaries or not, but it would presumably be easier not to do that.

VS_MOBILE_EXTENSIONS - missing PropertySheets in vcxproj

Hi, when I turn on VS_MOBILE_EXTENSIONS_VERSION cmake correctly generates ImportGroup element with ExtensionSDKLocation for WindowsMobile. This works fine and Extension shows up in Visual Studio, but I cannot include any of header file from this SDK extension.
If I remove extension in VS and add it back, then all includes works. I noticed that vcxproj has slight difference - Cmake generated file does not have PropertySheet with SDKExtensionDirectoryRoot.
See cmake-generated.vcxproj.txt and VS-generated.vcxproj.txt

Maybe I did something wrong, but there is no "SDKExtensionDirectoryRoot" string in cmake sources, so I guess it can't work anyway.

Proper VS_WINRT_REFERENCES for Microsoft.Advertising.winmd?

I'm trying to add the MSFT ad mediation SDK to our game. I can't seem to figure out the correct way to set VS_WINRT_REFERENCES. Or maybe I found a bug/limitation. If I manually add a reference to "Ad Mediator SDK for Windows 8.1 XAML" Version=1.0 everything works.

I've tried setting it to the .winmd file, full path or partial path. I've tried setting it to the per-architecture .dll file. The closest I've ever gotten was it compiled but upon running there was a ClassNotRegisteredException trying to use the sdk classes.

Anyone have any good thoughts?

Where to download version with windows10 support?

Where can I download CMake version with Windows 10 support?

CMake target Windows Phone Visual Studio 2015

I'm not sure if this is the right place to request this feature, but currently the official CMake is unable to generate VS Projects targeting Windows Phone for Visual Studio 2015.

cannot find -lversion

Platform Ubuntu 18.04

I've installed prerequisites:

sudo apt install -y openssh-server build-essential gdb zip

I have installed the cmake from here:

wget chmod +x https://github.com/microsoft/CMake/releases/download/v3.16.3311152/cmake-3.16.3311152-MSVC_2-Linux-x64.sh
chmod +x cmake-3.16.3311152-MSVC_2-Linux-x64.sh
sudo ./cmake-3.16.3311152-MSVC_2-Linux-x64.sh --skip-license --prefix=/usr/local

And I got this error building with cmake

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lversion

I can see in the link.txt this which is making use of -lversion

/usr/bin/c++  -g   CMakeFiles/MyExe.dir/stdafx.cpp.o CMakeFiles/MyExe.dir/MyExe.cpp.o  -o ../../x64/Debug/MyExe  ../../x64/Debug/libMyExeCore.a ../../x64/Debug/libCashFlowEngineReports.a -lversion

what do I do wrong here?

Generation fails for Windows Universal after VS 2015 update.

Hi!
I updated Visual Studio 2015 RC to release version (and Win10 SDK too) and cmake now fails to generate projects for WindowsStore == 10.0.
I compared old generated (with RC) project and project from release VS project templates. I found a few different places: 'ApplicationTypeRevision' in release is 10.0 (vs old 8.2). 'WindowsTargetPlatformVersion' and 'WindowsTargetPlatformMinVersion' fields in old project are missed.
I'll try to fix this issues and write about result.

Generation Fails in VS 2015 Express for Windows 10

Hi,
there is a problem with project generation in Express Studio for Windows 10. Manifest validation expects 44px app icon, but there is only 30px.

D:\builds\v140-win10-devel\CMakeFiles\CMakeTmp\cmTC_9ca43.dir\package.appxManifest(27,5):
  error APPX1619: App manifest references the small logo image
  'cmTC_9ca43.dir\SmallLogo.png' which does not have valid dimensions.  It
  must be 44x44 pixels.

Seriously?

I know you suffer from a company-wide Not Invented Here syndrome. But maintaining your own version of CMake is braindead practice. Especially when it is equivalent to the 3.13.x of the official branch, and hence does not actually support Visual Studio 2019 generators which have been added in 3.14.x. And you are distributing it with Visual Studio 2019. Your own CMake version, which is distributed with Visual Studio 2019, does not support Visual Studio 2019. I had to:

ren "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Community\Common7\IDE\CommonExtensions\Microsoft\CMake\CMake" _CMake
mklink /d "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Community\Common7\IDE\CommonExtensions\Microsoft\CMake\CMake" "C:\Program Files\CMake"

in order to replace it with my official 3.14.x instance to get cmake projects to work in Visual Studio 2019.

The visual studio 2022 Infobar can not deploy CMake automatically on WSL:Ubuntu.

I follow the instructions here.

After I created a CMake project which named "hello1"
The CMake Output:
The remote system does not have CMake 3.8 or greater. An infobar to automatically deploy CMake to the remote system will be displayed if you are building on a supported architecture. See https://aka.ms/linuxcmakeconfig for more info

The visual studio infobar tips me:
Supprted CMake version is not present on "WSL:Ubuntu".Install latest CMake binaries from CMake.org? Yes No

after selected yes, and wait a moment, the cross platform logging output the following,

The cross platform just tell "Deployment failed " in the last statement, but didn't tell why .
any geek can tell how to resolve this prob ?

no comment on it!

no or yes? c or k?

crash on cmLocale.h

I'm trying to use Hunter package manager with Microsoft's CMake and get a crash when CMake tries to unpack hunter.
I've tracked down the crash to the destructor at cmLocale.h, which is caused because setlocale overrides OldLocale's contents.

I've noticed that upstream CMake already has a fix for this crash, so I'll open a PR with this fix.

GetWindows10SDKVersion failed to detect Windows 10 SDK

While I am testing latest feature/Win10 I have found GetWindows10SDKVersion always returns empty string on my Windows 10 Pro.

OS Name Microsoft Windows 10 Pro
Version 10.0.10240 Build 10240
Microsoft Visual Studio Community 2015 Version 14.0.23107.0 D14REL

I found that it failed at VerifyVersionInfo, because it seems VerifyVersionInfo accepts the number 6 or 10 depends on the Windows 10 build number. I'm not quite sure if it's a right solution or not, but I think we need to verify 10 or 6 to detect Windows 10.

FYI I managed to get it working locally,

-        if (VerifyVersionInfo(&osviex,
-          VER_MAJORVERSION | VER_MINORVERSION | VER_BUILDNUMBER,
-          dwlConditionMask))
+       auto verified = VerifyVersionInfo(&osviex,
+           VER_MAJORVERSION | VER_MINORVERSION /* | VER_BUILDNUMBER */,
+           dwlConditionMask);
+       // VerifyVersionInfo could accept 10 or 6 for major version on Windows 10
+       if (!verified && osviex.dwMajorVersion == 10) {
+           osviex.dwMajorVersion = 6;
+           verified = VerifyVersionInfo(&osviex,
+               VER_MAJORVERSION | VER_MINORVERSION /* | VER_BUILDNUMBER */,
+               dwlConditionMask);
+       }

VCMDDAndroid for VS 2017

I'm trying https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/vcblog/2015/12/15/support-for-android-cmake-projects-in-visual-studio/, but you support only until VS 2015. When I installed VS 2017 your cmake says:

CMake Error in CMakeLists.txt:
CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME is 'VCMDDAndroid' but 'Visual C++ for Mobile Development
(Android support)' is not installed.

You can support VS 2017? Or can you do it?

Thanks.

VS toolset upgrade

After running of the following command:

bin> ..\..\CMake\bin\bin\Release\cmake.exe -G "Visual Studio 14 2015 Win64" -DCMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME:String=WindowsStore -DCMAKE_SYSTEM_VERSION:String="8.1" -DCMAKE_VS_EFFECTIVE_PLATFORMS:String=x64 -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=C:\Users\install ..

and opening the resulting solution VS2015 suggests to upgrade CMake-related projects only (e. g. ALL_BUILD, INSTALL, etc.) others are still using vc120 toolset instead of vc140

CMake 3.21.0.rc2 seems not to work with vcpkg

We recently installed 3.21.0.rc2.
We noticed that this seems to cause issues with vcpkg.
If you run "vcpkg install catch2" or some other package instead of catch2 you get

Then nothing happens no install occurs. If you're using Visual Studio vcpkg seems to crash also witout installing anything.

Add C# Support

I know this is not a tiny feature to add, but I've been wanting it for years. I highly appreciate that Microsoft worked on providing proper CMake support for the Universal Windows Platform. I am now wondering, would it be possible to consider adding proper C# support as well? Please share your thoughts on the matter, I would be very interested in such a feature.
