解析GraphLab中的CMakeList.txt

因为最近在看GraphLab的源码和cmake，所以对GraphLab中的CMakeList.txt进行分析，学习一下

# Libraries linked via full path no longer produce linker search paths.
cmake_policy(SET CMP0003 NEW)
# Preprocessor definition values are now escaped automatically.
cmake_policy(SET CMP0005 NEW)

cmake_policy处理cmake版本兼容的，每个版本对应不同的policy，详细看文档

# Determine where additional GraphLab specific cmake modules are defined
set(CMAKE_MODULE_PATH ${GraphLab_SOURCE_DIR}/cmake)

设置CMAKE_MODULE_PATH

set(BUILD_SHARED_LIBS ON)

BUILD_SHARED_LIBS 变量可以改变add_library()来构建共享库，默认是add_library()是构建静态库

include(CheckLibraryExists)
include(CheckFunctionExists)
include(ExternalProject)
include(CheckCXXSourceCompiles)

Load and run CMake code from a file or module.

# check we are on a 64 bit machine (else fail)
if( CMAKE_SIZEOF_VOID_P EQUAL 4 )
   message( SEND_ERROR "GraphLab does not support 32 bit systems. Please switch to 64 bit system and try again" )
endif ( CMAKE_SIZEOF_VOID_P EQUAL 4 )

CMAKE_SIZEOF_VOID_P是void指针的字节数

# set include path
include_directories(
  ${GraphLab_SOURCE_DIR}/src
  ${GraphLab_SOURCE_DIR}/cxxtest
  ${GraphLab_SOURCE_DIR}/deps/local/include)

设置include路径，引入头文件

# set link path
link_directories(${GraphLab_SOURCE_DIR}/deps/local/lib)

设置链接路径

add_definitions(-DUSE_DYNAMIC_LOCAL_GRAPH)

。。。。

if(NO_OPENMP)
  set(OPENMP_C_FLAGS "")
  set(OPENMP_LIBRARIES "")
  add_definitions(-D__NO_OPENMP__)
else()
  set(OPENMP_C_FLAGS "-fopenmp")
  set(OPENMP_LIBRARIES "gomp")
endif()

if (APPLE)
link_libraries(pthread ${OPENMP_LIBRARIES})
else()
link_libraries(pthread rt ${OPENMP_LIBRARIES})
endif()

将库链接到稍后添加的所有目标

if(EXPERIMENTAL)
  if (IS_DIRECTORY ${GraphLab_SOURCE_DIR}/experimental)
    subdirs(experimental)
  endif()
endif()

如果${GraphLab_SOURCE_DIR}/experimental是一个directory就返回true

macro(requires_eigen NAME)
  add_dependencies(${NAME} eigen)
endmacro(requires_eigen)

Add a dependency between top-level targets.
add_dependencies(<target> [<target-dependency>]...)

# Set installation rules
install(DIRECTORY src/
  DESTINATION include
  FILES_MATCHING PATTERN "*.hpp"  PATTERN "*.h"
  PATTERN ".svn" EXCLUDE
  )
install(CODE "execute_process(COMMAND ./scripts/install_deps.sh
  ${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX} WORKING_DIRECTORY
  ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR})")

macro(requires_opencv NAME)
  get_target_property(tmp ${NAME} COMPILE_FLAGS)
  if (NOT tmp)
    set(tmp "-I${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/deps/local/include/opencv")
  else()
    set(tmp "${tmp} -I${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/deps/local/include/opencv")
  endif()
  set_target_properties(${NAME} PROPERTIES COMPILE_FLAGS "${tmp}")
  target_link_libraries(${NAME} opencv_core opencv_imgproc opencv_calib3d opencv_video opencv_features2d opencv_ml opencv_highgui opencv_objdetect opencv_contrib opencv_legacy opencv_contrib opencv_stitching)
  add_dependencies(${NAME} opencv)
endmacro(requires_opencv)

get_target_property()：从target中得到一个COMPILE_FLAGS属性，并存储在变量tmp中。通过==set_target_property()==来设置target属性

find_package(Java)
find_package(JNI)

Finds and loads settings from an external project. _FOUND will be set to indicate whether the package was found. 如果Java被找到，JAVA_FOUND为true

# Setup testing tools
# Make sure testing is enabled
enable_testing()
# Use Python interpreter
find_package(PythonInterp)
set(CXXTESTGEN ${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/cxxtest/cxxtestgen)
# create a macro to define a test
macro(ADD_CXXTEST NAME)
  if(PYTHONINTERP_FOUND)
    add_custom_command(
      OUTPUT ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/${NAME}.cpp
      COMMAND
      ${PYTHON_EXECUTABLE} ${CXXTESTGEN}
      --runner=ErrorPrinter
      -o ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/${NAME}.cpp ${ARGV}
      DEPENDS ${ARGV}
      WORKING_DIRECTORY ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}
      )
  endif(PYTHONINTERP_FOUND)
  add_graphlab_executable(${NAME}test ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/${NAME}.cpp)
  set_source_files_properties( ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/${NAME}.cpp
    PROPERTIES COMPILE_FLAGS "-I${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}" )

  add_test(${NAME} ${NAME}test)
endmacro(ADD_CXXTEST)

安装测试工具
