Wt cmake build

Added by Jahn Mueller about 3 years ago

I am new to Wt and I am trying to build the HelloApplication project (https://www.webtoolkit.eu/wt/doc/tutorial/wt.html) using cmake. For this purpose I have clone the official repository of Wt and install it on a Debian system.

Furthermore I have created the following CMakeLists.txt:
`make_minimum_required(VERSION 3.14 FATAL_ERROR)

project(WtTestProject)

Debug or Release

if (NOT CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE)
## set default to Debug
set(CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE Debug) # override with -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug
message("==> CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE empty. Changing it to Release.")
else()
message("==> CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE == ${CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE}.")
endif()

find_package(Boost REQUIRED)
find_package(Wt REQUIRED)

set(SOURCES
src/main.cpp
src/HelloApplication.cpp
)

ADD_EXECUTABLE(${PROJECT_NAME} ${SOURCES})

target_include_directories(${PROJECT_NAME} PUBLIC ${CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_DIR}/inc)
set_property(TARGET ${PROJECT_NAME} PROPERTY CXX_STANDARD 17)
set_property(TARGET ${PROJECT_NAME} PROPERTY POSITION_INDEPENDENT_CODE ON)`

However, it did not work and I am getting the following linking error while trying to build the project:

I have never had trouble building Wt from the documentation. https://www.webtoolkit.eu/wt/doc/reference/html/InstallationUnix.html
