How to link shared library on linux using cmake?-CodePudding

How to link shared library on linux platform? I downloaded sfml library using apt cmd and I tried to run simple example:

main.cpp

#include <SFML/Graphics.hpp>

int main()
{
    // Make a window that is 800 by 200 pixels
    // And has the title "Hello from SFML"
    sf::RenderWindow window(sf::VideoMode(800, 200), "Hello from SFML");
    return 0;
}

But I keep getting undefined reference even though vs code sees files and lets me jump directly to them using ctrl button.

cmake:

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.0.0)
project(sflmProject VERSION 0.1.0)

include(CTest)
enable_testing()

add_executable(sflmProject main.cpp)

set(CPACK_PROJECT_NAME ${PROJECT_NAME})
set(CPACK_PROJECT_VERSION ${PROJECT_VERSION})
include(CPack)

compilation error:

I tried to modify cmake like this but I just have no idea which file should I add:

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.0.0)
project(sflmProject VERSION 0.1.0)

include(CTest)
enable_testing()

add_library(sfml SHARED /usr/include/SFML/*)
add_executable(sflmProject main.cpp)

target_link_libraries(sflmProject PRIVATE sfml)

set(CPACK_PROJECT_NAME ${PROJECT_NAME})
set(CPACK_PROJECT_VERSION ${PROJECT_VERSION})
include(CPack)

CodePudding user response：

here is an example of cmake file for sfml on linux

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.22)

project(sfml-program LANGUAGES CXX)

add_executable(${PROJECT_NAME} main.cpp)

find_package (SFML 2.5 COMPONENTS graphics audio network REQUIRED)

target_link_libraries (${PROJECT_NAME} PUBLIC sfml-system sfml-graphics sfml-audio sfml-network)

CodePudding user response：

Alternatively this works as well:

target_link_libraries(${PROJECT_NAME}
    /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libsfml-window.so
    /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libsfml-graphics.so 
    /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libsfml-audio.so
    /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libsfml-network.so
    /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libsfml-system.so
