Cmake中的find_package功能

find_package其实在windows下扮演的角色并不是很重要。在Unix下就非常重要了，find_package可以根据cmake内置的.cmake的脚本去找相应的库的模块，当然，内建了很多库的模块变量，调用了find_package之后，会有相应的变量“生成”有效。

 

比如调用了find_package(Qt5Widgets)，find_package(Qt4 COMPONENTS QTCORE QTGUI QTOPENGL QTSVG)返回之后

就会有变量Qt5Widgets_FOUND，Qt5Widgets_INCLUDE_DIRS相应的变量生效。

 

然后就可以在CMakeLists.txt里面使用上述的变量了。类似如下：

1 INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES(${QT_INCLUDES})
2 INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES(${Qt5Widgets_INCLUDE_DIRS})
3 INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES(${Qt5Svg_INCLUDE_DIRS})
4 INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES(${Qt5OpenGL_INCLUDE_DIRS})
5 INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES(${Qt5Concurrent_INCLUDE_DIRS})

1 if(Qt5Widgets_FOUND)
2 
3 
4 message(STATUS ${Qt5Widgets_INCLUDE_DIRS})
5    #qt5
6 else()
7  find_package(Qt4 REQUIRED)  #qt4
8  include(${QT_USE_FILE})
9 endif()
