Listing header files in Visual Studio C++ project

2019-01-30 22:57发布

问题:

I'm building a cmake based build system for our product. The problem is that Visual Studio project, generated by cmake, doesn't display header files in solution browser.

What I need to add in CMakeList.txt to list header files? The preferred solution is where no need to list each particular header file.

Solution Here is a solution I came with:

file(GLOB_RECURSE INCS "*.h")
add_library(myLib ${SRCS} ${INCS})

Thanks

回答1:

Just add the header files along with the source files:

PROJECT (Test)

ADD_EXECUTABLE(Test test.cpp test.h)

Or using variables:

PROJECT (Test)

SET(SOURCE
  test.cpp
)

SET(HEADERS
  test.h
)

ADD_EXECUTABLE(Test ${SOURCE} ${HEADERS})


回答2:

The basic trick to this is to add the header files to one of the targets (either executable or library). This is particularly irritating because cmake already knows all the header file dependencies and should take care of this for us. You can organize it further using the source_group command:

  source_group("My Headers" FILES ${MY_HDRS})

Note that you have to do the same thing in Xcode too.

I had the same problem while working at a build system for a Qt project and I came out with this solution, thanks to the other posts on this page. I included a complete example adapted from my makefiles. Hope this helps!

cmake_minimum_required (VERSION 2.6) 
project (DemoSolution)

find_package(Qt4 REQUIRED)
include(${QT_USE_FILE})
add_definitions(${QT_DEFINITIONS})

include_directories (../../include/)
set(CMAKE_INCLUDE_CURRENT_DIR ON)

file(GLOB Demo_SOURCES *.cpp)
file(GLOB Demo_HEADERS *.hpp)
file(GLOB Demo_FORMS *.ui)
file(GLOB Demo_RESOURCES resources.qrc)

qt4_wrap_cpp(Demo_MOC ${Demo_HEADERS})
qt4_wrap_ui(Demo_FORMS_HEADERS ${Demo_FORMS})
qt4_add_resources(Demo_RESOURCES_RCC ${Demo_RESOURCES})

source_group("Headers" FILES ${Demo_HEADERS})
source_group("MOC" FILES ${Demo_MOC})

set(QT_USE_QTNETWORK, true)
set(QT_USE_QTSQL, true)
set(QT_USE_QTXML, true)

add_library(Demo SHARED
    ${Demo_SOURCES}
    ${Demo_HEADERS}
    ${Demo_MOC}
    ${Demo_FORMS_HEADERS}
    ${Demo_RESOURCES_RCC}
    )

target_link_libraries(Demo ${QT_LIBRARIES})
add_definitions(-D_DEMO_EXPORTS)
