When trying to use cmake with this CMakeLists:

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.4.6)
include(/opt/ros/electric/ros/core/rosbuild/rosbuild.cmake)

# Set the build type.  Options are:
#  Coverage       : w/ debug symbols, w/o optimization, w/ code-coverage
#  Debug          : w/ debug symbols, w/o optimization
#  Release        : w/o debug symbols, w/ optimization
#  RelWithDebInfo : w/ debug symbols, w/ optimization
#  MinSizeRel     : w/o debug symbols, w/ optimization, stripped binaries
#set(ROS_BUILD_TYPE RelWithDebInfo)

rosbuild_init()

#set the default path for built executables to the "bin" directory
set(EXECUTABLE_OUTPUT_PATH ${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/bin)
#set the default path for built libraries to the "lib" directory
set(LIBRARY_OUTPUT_PATH ${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/lib)

#uncomment if you have defined messages
#rosbuild_genmsg()
#uncomment if you have defined services
#rosbuild_gensrv()

#common commands for building c++ executables and libraries
#rosbuild_add_library(${PROJECT_NAME} src/example.cpp)
#target_link_libraries(${PROJECT_NAME} another_library)
#rosbuild_add_boost_directories()
#rosbuild_link_boost(${PROJECT_NAME} thread)
#rosbuild_add_executable(example examples/example.cpp)
rosbuild_add_executable(calibration_cameras src/calibration.cpp)
#target_link_libraries(example ${PROJECT_NAME})
include_directories(/usr/include/opencv-2.3.1)

I get this error in the CMake console:

CMake Error at /opt/ros/electric/ros/core/rosbuild/rosbuild.cmake:24 (message):
  Couldn't find rospack.  Please run 'make' in $ROS_ROOT
Call Stack (most recent call first):
  CMakeLists.txt:2 (include)

Running cmake in ros root gave this error:

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:23 (include):
  include could not find load file:

    /core/rosbuild/rosconfig.cmake


CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:35 (message):
  Neither shared nor static libraries are enabled.  Please set either
  ROS_BUILD_STATIC_LIBS or ROS_BUILD_SHARED_LIBS to true.

I have checked, and rosconfig.cmake is where it should be. Any help appreciated.

It seems to me that you tried to hardcode your paths (line 2 for instance) to workaround the fact that your environment variables are not defined.

First, type "source /opt/ros/eletric/setup.bash" then remove the hard-coded paths (re-run roscreate-pkg somewhere to know how to revert your changes) and then run "make" into your package. It should work.

This should work.

Please provide information about your setup. Otherwise this is just guessing: Did you source setup.sh?
