cmake for OpenDDS Project - build

Question

looking for a standard CMakelist to build OpenDDS application (Simple Publisher/Subscriber). I am familiar with the Tutorials and everything is running fine with MPC to build the examples. I need to build my project with cmake. I m using OpenDDS 3.9.
I tried to make a CMakelist for the Stockquote Example on here:
http://opendds.org/about/articles/Article-Intro.html
My CMakelist looks as follows:
cmake_minimum_required (VERSION 3.3.0)
set (CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} -std=c++11")
project (publisher)
set(DDS_ROOT_DIR "home/ubuntu/OpenDDS-3.9")
set (CMAKE_RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/bin)
set (CMAKE_RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY_DEBUG ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/bin)
set (CMAKE_RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY_RELEASE ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/bin)
include_directories (${DDS_ROOT_DIR} "${DDS_ROOT_DIR}/ACE_wrappers" "${DDS_ROOT_DIR}/ACE_wrappers/TAO" ${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR})
file (GLOB_RECURSE PUBLISHER_SRC *.cpp)
file (GLOB_RECURSE IDL_SRC ${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR} *.cpp)
add_executable (${PROJECT_NAME} ${PUBLISHER_SRC} ${IDL_SRC})
project (subscriber)
set (CMAKE_RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/bin)
set (CMAKE_RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY_DEBUG ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/bin)
set (CMAKE_RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY_RELEASE ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/bin)
include_directories (${DDS_ROOT_DIR} "${DDS_ROOT_DIR}/ACE_wrappers" "${DDS_ROOT_DIR}/ACE_wrappers/TAO" ${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR})
file (GLOB_RECURSE SUBSCRIBER_SRC *.cpp)
file (GLOB_RECURSE IDL_SRC ${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR} *.cpp)
add_executable (${PROJECT_NAME} ${SUBSCRIBER_SRC} ${IDL_SRC})
# Adding DDS link_libraries
if (WIN32)
file (GLOB OpenDDS_LIBS "${DDS_ROOT_DIR}/lib/*d.dll")
foreach (i ${OpenDDS_LIBS})
get_filename_component (BASE_NAME_DLL ${i} NAME_WE)
add_library (${BASE_NAME_DLL} SHARED IMPORTED)
set_property (TARGET ${BASE_NAME_DLL} PROPERTY IMPORTED_LOCATION "${DDS_ROOT_DIR}/lib/${BASE_NAME_DLL}.dll")
set_property (TARGET ${BASE_NAME_DLL} PROPERTY IMPORTED_IMPLIB "${DDS_ROOT_DIR}/lib/${BASE_NAME_DLL}.lib")
target_link_libraries (${PROJECT_NAME} ${BASE_NAME_DLL})
add_custom_command(TARGET ${PROJECT_NAME} POST_BUILD COMMAND ${CMAKE_COMMAND} -E copy_if_different $<TARGET_FILE:${BASE_NAME_DLL}> $<TARGET_FILE_DIR:${PROJECT_NAME}>)
endforeach()
file (GLOB OpenDDS_LIBS "${DDS_ROOT_DIR}/ACE_wrappers/lib/*d.dll")
foreach (i ${OpenDDS_LIBS})
get_filename_component (BASE_NAME_DLL ${i} NAME_WE)
add_library (${BASE_NAME_DLL} SHARED IMPORTED)
set_property (TARGET ${BASE_NAME_DLL} PROPERTY IMPORTED_LOCATION "${DDS_ROOT_DIR}/ACE_wrappers/lib/${BASE_NAME_DLL}.dll")
set_property (TARGET ${BASE_NAME_DLL} PROPERTY IMPORTED_IMPLIB "${DDS_ROOT_DIR}/ACE_wrappers/lib/${BASE_NAME_DLL}.lib")
target_link_libraries (${PROJECT_NAME} ${BASE_NAME_DLL})
add_custom_command(TARGET ${PROJECT_NAME} POST_BUILD COMMAND ${CMAKE_COMMAND} -E copy_if_different $<TARGET_FILE:${BASE_NAME_DLL}> $<TARGET_FILE_DIR:${PROJECT_NAME}>)
endforeach ()
elseif (UNIX)
file (GLOB OpenDDS_LIBS "${DDS_ROOT_DIR}/lib/*.so")
foreach (i ${OpenDDS_LIBS})
get_filename_component (BASE_NAME_DLL ${i} NAME_WE)
add_library (${BASE_NAME_DLL} SHARED IMPORTED)
set_property (TARGET ${BASE_NAME_DLL} PROPERTY IMPORTED_LOCATION "${DDS_ROOT_DIR}/lib/${BASE_NAME_DLL}.so")
target_link_libraries (${PROJECT_NAME} ${BASE_NAME_DLL})
add_custom_command(TARGET ${PROJECT_NAME} POST_BUILD COMMAND ${CMAKE_COMMAND} -E copy_if_different $<TARGET_FILE:${BASE_NAME_DLL}> $<TARGET_FILE_DIR:${PROJECT_NAME}>)

add_custom_command(TARGET ${PROJECT_NAME} POST_BUILD COMMAND ${CMAKE_COMMAND} -E copy_if_different $<TARGET_FILE:${BASE_NAME_DLL}> $<TARGET_FILE_DIR:${PROJECT_NAME}>)
endforeach ()
endif ()
I got the adding DDS Link Libraries Section from the WTeam Blog. http://www.wteam.it/index.php/articles/the-hla-series/9-article/15-first-opendds-program
Currently i receive this error message if i'm using cmake --build:

Does anyone have an idea whats wrong or has a standard CMake for OpenDDS applications? Thank you very much for any help.
Cheers,

Answer 1

OpenDDS 3.14 will have cmake support, see https://github.com/objectcomputing/OpenDDS/tree/master/tests/cmake_integration for unit tests using cmake.

Answer 2

The example project on that website is bundled with OpenDDS under the 'examples/DCPS' folder. It contains a working build script, instructions etc.
