In CLion, how can I specify the include directories where the C++ compiler will look for header files? Also, how do I setup the libraries to link against, and their library directories?
Currently I'm doing those tasks modifying directly the file CMakeLists.txt
:
include_directories(/opt/netcdf/include)
link_directories(/opt/netcdf/lib)
link_libraries(netcdf)
But I wonder if it is possible to accomplish the same thing using the GUI.
Thanks
In CLion, the
CMakeLists.txt
file(s) for your project are the system of record for your build system and settings. What's shown in the GUI is derived from the build script. This is similar to the way IntelliJ uses a Mavenpom.xml
file as the system of record for a Java build and shows things in the IDE based on the file. Based on my past experience with IntelliJ, I expect that JetBrains will make this a more bidirectional experience (updating the GUI will edit theCMakeLists.txt
) over time.
