When specifying an out-of-tree source a binary directory must be explicitly specified.

• 编译时具体错误：

CMake Error at dep/eserial/src/lib/CMakeLists.txt:18 (add_subdirectory):
  add_subdirectory not given a binary directory but the given source
  directory "/tmp/weiyu/dep/common_lib" is
  not a subdirectory of
  "/tmp/weiyu/dep/eserial/src/lib".  When
  specifying an out-of-tree source a binary directory must be explicitly
  specified.

• 再看CMakeList.txt

add_subdirectory(../../../../dep/common_lib)

• 解决办法

真有牛人提供了解决办法

add_subdirectory(../../../../dep/common_lib common_lib.out)
