Multiple Cmakelist.txt

asked 2021-10-19 03:08:36 -0500

I have a Cmakelist.txt that looks as follows in my project

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.0.2)
project(softmanbot)
add_compile_options(-std=c++11)

find_package(catkin REQUIRED COMPONENTS roscpp rospy)
include_directories(SYSTEM ${Boost_INCLUDE_DIRS})
find_package(Boost REQUIRED COMPONENTS serialization)
catkin_package()

include_directories( ${catkin_INCLUDE_DIRS})

add_executable(softmanbot_supervisor_node
    common/genericSupervisor.cpp common/genericSupervisor.hpp common/genericLogic.hpp
    supervisor/specificSupervisor.cpp supervisor/specificSupervisor.hpp
    )

add_executable(softmanbot_genericDeformationControl_node 
    common/genericDeformationControl.cpp common/genericDeformationControl.hpp common/genericLogic.hpp   
    deformationControl/specificDeformationControl.cpp deformationControl/specificDeformationControl.hpp
    )

add_executable(softmanbot_genericSkilledWorkcell_node
    common/genericSkilledWorkcell.cpp common/genericSkilledWorkcell.hpp common/genericLogic.hpp
    skilledWorkcell/specificSkilledWorkcell.cpp skilledWorkcell/specificSkilledWorkcell.hpp 
    )

add_executable(softmanbot_genericPerception_node
    common/genericPerception.cpp common/genericPerception.hpp common/genericLogic.hpp
    perception/specificPerception.cpp perception/specificPerception.hpp
    )


target_link_libraries(softmanbot_supervisor_node
    ${catkin_LIBRARIES}
    ${Boost_LIBRARIES}
)

target_link_libraries(softmanbot_genericDeformationControl_node
   ${catkin_LIBRARIES}
   ${Boost_LIBRARIES}
)


target_include_directories(softmanbot_genericSkilledWorkcell_node PUBLIC ${EIGEN3_INCLUDE_DIRS})

target_link_libraries(softmanbot_genericSkilledWorkcell_node
   ${catkin_LIBRARIES}
   ${Boost_LIBRARIES}
)


target_link_libraries(softmanbot_genericPerception_node
   ${catkin_LIBRARIES}
   ${Boost_LIBRARIES}
)

Is this possible to split it in several Cmakelists.txt? I have project-requirement reasons to do this. I'd like to have one by node, which have sources in different folders. Anyone knows how to make so the main project Cmakelists act as a "orchestra chief" that just calls the other one so I can put specific includes in each nodes?

There has always been the include() command in CMake, so you can just do:

include(buildLibA.txt)
include(LibB/CMakeLists.txt)

Or, for the second case, add_subdirectory() would be better:

include(buildLibA.txt)
add_subdirectory(LibB)

Will try that and accept answer if that works. Would also update files in a separate answer so someone with same problem can solve in the future

Answer from @KenYN works. CMakelist.txt now looks like

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.0.2)
project(testBenchMichelin)

## Compile as C++11, supported in ROS Kinetic and newer
add_compile_options(-std=c++11)

include(deformationControl/deformationControlCMake.txt)
include(supervisor/supervisorCMake.txt)
include(skilledWorkcell/skilledWorkcellCMake.txt)
include(perception/perceptionCMake.txt)

Each specific file hold relevant information. Doesn't looks like there are conflict with same library inclusions in several nodes.

Be weary if you include some message generations. I had to split up things in cmake1.txt and cmake2.txt to ensure calling catkin_package once after message generations. Haven't tried multiple messages defined on several files yet.
