I'm trying to make OpenCV work with CMake in Clion on Windows 10 (64bit). I've already set OPENCV_DIR to the OpenCV build folder that contains OpenCVConfig.cmake, but cmake keeps nagging it cannot find the file.
Could not find a package configuration file provided by "OpenCV" with any of the following names:
OpenCVConfig.cmake opencv-config.cmake
Here's my CMakeLists:
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.6)
project(MyProject)
set(OpenCV_DIR "D:/opencv/build/")
find_package(OpenCV REQUIRED core imgproc)
set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} -std=c++11")
include_directories(${OpenCV_INCLUDE_DIRS})
add_executable(MyProject main.cpp)
target_link_libraries(MyProject ${OpenCV_LIBS})
And here's the content of the D:/opencv/build/ folder:
What can be the problem here? Thanks in advance!
I've found the problem, totally unexpected for a CMake newcomer like me.
It turns out I installed CMake as part of Cygwin, and thus filesystem paths take the form of /cygdrive/d/opencv/build/ instead. That works without a problem.
So if you're on Windows, please note the different file path style in case CMake is provided by Cygwin.

I recently installed vcpkg on my windows system and the cmake (and cmake tools) extension for vscode, because I wanted to use a json file for my c++ project. I had put vcpkg in a random location just to mess around with it and learn how it works. However, when I moved it to another location as its final spot, CMake got confused and couldn't find lib files for jsoncpp.
Here's the error:
Unable to open 'json_value.cpp': Unable to read file 'c:\path\to\old\location\vcpkg\buildtrees\jsoncpp\src\3918c327b1-034a82149a.clean\src\lib_json\json_value.cpp' (Error: Unable to resolve non-existing file 'c:\path\to\old\location\vcpkg\buildtrees\jsoncpp\src\3918c327b1-034a82149a.clean\src\lib_json\json_value.cpp').
I had moved vcpkg from C:\path\to\old\location\vcpkg to C:\vcpkg
And here's my CMakeLists.txt file:
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.0.0)
project(myProgram VERSION 0.1.0)
include(CTest)
enable_testing()
add_executable(myProgram main.cpp)
set(CPACK_PROJECT_NAME ${PROJECT_NAME})
set(CPACK_PROJECT_VERSION ${PROJECT_VERSION})
# set(EXECUTABLE_OUTPUT_PATH ${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR})
set(CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE debug)
# set_target_properties(${PROJECT_NAME}
# PROPERTIES

include(CPack)
include_directories(C:/vcpkg/installed/x64-windows/include)
link_directories(C:/vcpkg/installed/x64-windows/lib)
find_package(jsoncpp CONFIG REQUIRED)
target_link_libraries(${PROJECT_NAME} PRIVATE jsoncpp_lib jsoncpp_object)
I have already tried updating the CMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE property in settings.json, deleting cmake's cache, resetting the extension, and reinstalling jsoncpp, vcpkg and the cmake extensions fresh (I had made sure that their files were deleted).
I had to take out the find package function. The find package function made cmake expect the source code to be in the buildtrees folder, which in this case isn't (I think it was at some point, but I don't know why it wont come back). Just by using target_link_libraries(${PROJECT_NAME} jsoncpp), as well as the include/link directories statements gave cmake everything it needed to include the library. One thing I still don't understand however is why cmake was looking in the old location for that bit of source code.
I'm trying to use Caffe in my C++ project which I compile with CMakeLists.txt, but it doesn't want to work. My only line in the code is
#include <caffe/caffe.hpp>
I compiled Caffe myself, it is installed in the directory "/home/tamas/caffe". My CMakeLists.txt looks like this so far:
cmake_minimum_required (VERSION 3.5)
include(FindPkgConfig)
project (main)
set (CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD 11)
set (CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD_REQUIRED TRUE)
set (CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} -Wall -Werror -std=c++11 -pthread")
set (source_dir "${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/src/")
set (OpenCV_DIR "/home/tamas/opencv/include/opencv2")
set (Caffe_DIR "/home/tamas/caffe")
file (GLOB source_files "${source_dir}/ssd_video.cpp")
find_package(OpenCV 4.4.0 REQUIRED)
include_directories(${OpenCV_INCLUDE_DIRS})
find_package(Caffe REQUIRED)
include_directories(${Caffe_INCLUDE_DIRS})
add_executable (main ${source_files})
target_link_libraries(main ${OpenCV_LIBS})
target_link_libraries(main ${Caffe_LIBRARIES})
The error is the following:
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:24 (find_package):
By not providing "FindCaffe.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this project has
asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by "Caffe", but
CMake did not find one.
Could not find a package configuration file provided by "Caffe" with any of
the following names:
CaffeConfig.cmake
caffe-config.cmake
Add the installation prefix of "Caffe" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set
"Caffe_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above files. If "Caffe"
provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it has been
installed.
-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!
The problem is that I have searched and I don't have a FindCaffe.cmake file on my computer. I found an example for CaffeConfig.cmake, but I tried it and it doesn't work either.
Is there a way I can link Caffe with my C++ project? Thanks!
To fix this issue you may do the following:
Download this FindCAFFE.cmake file
Create cmake dir in your repo root directory and put the downloaded file there.
Modify your CMake file:
add set(CMAKE_MODULE_PATH ${CMAKE_MODULE_PATH} "${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/cmake")
change set (Caffe_DIR "/home/tamas/caffe") to set (CAFFE_ROOT_DIR "/home/tamas/caffe")
change find_package(Caffe REQUIRED) to find_package(CAFFE REQUIRED)
use CAFFE_INCLUDE_DIRS and CAFFE_LIBRARIES for include directories and link libraries respectively
Clean up your build dir and run cmake command again
<library>_DIR should not be set manually in CMake code usually. There are better alternatives that should be used as setting these variable won't necessarily do what you want. It won't change where find_package finds its libraries.
The CaffeConfig.cmake file is generated when building Caffe. You should never download another one, these files are compatible only with a specific build configuration.
The Caffe library supports to be used with CMake, so FindCaffe.cmake is unnecessary.
For find_package to work, either set the <package>_ROOT variable (require CMake 3.12 minimum) or you must append the install path in CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH. Here's a CMake example that uses the prefix path:
# If you only built the library
list (APPEND CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH "/home/tamas/caffe/build-dir")
# If you installed the library there
list (APPEND CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH "/home/tamas/caffe/")
find_package(Caffe REQUIRED)
Note that the Caffe_LIBRARIES and Caffe_INCLUDE_DIRS won't be set. This is old CMake style and the Caffe library uses the new style. This is what you should do:
target_link_libraries(main PUBLIC caffe caffeproto)
This line add both include directory and adds linking to the libraries too.
I am trying to include the Eigen library to my CMakelist.txt. I have followed the CMake instructions on the Eigen Docs but I am using Jetbrain's Clion and not CMake directly. So I do not know how to use the Cmake commands provided. I have researched around but I don't have have a very good understanding of CMake to write Cmakelists, so I haven't been able to get anything to work yet.
this is what I have been using just to test the serup of the library:
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.17)
project(Eigen_Test)
set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD 20)
find_package (Eigen3 3.3 REQUIRED NO_MODULE)
add_executable (example example.cpp)
target_link_libraries (example eigen)
add_executable(Eigen_Test main.cpp)
this is the error I have been receiving:
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:5 (find_package):
Could not find a package configuration file provided by "Eigen3" (requested
version 3.3) with any of the following names:
Eigen3Config.cmake
eigen3-config.cmake
Add the installation prefix of "Eigen3" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set
"Eigen3_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above files. If "Eigen3"
provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it has been installed.
I Have researched many ways to include the library but most methods use command lines which I am unfamiliar with. Also I do not have an Eigen3Config.cmake the only file I have Eigen3Config.cmake.in. I assume there is some install trick that I must not be aware of. If anyone has a way to include clion strictly using a CMakelist.txt, I would be greatly appreciative.
Here a working example with CMake on Windows using the MinGW environment with mingw32-make.exe and g++.exe compiler.
CMakeLists.txt :
# The following lines depends on your project :
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.19)
project(PROJECT_NAME)
set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD 17)
# You have to set these variables as Windows environment variables:
# EIGEN3_INCLUDE_DIR <- %EIGEN3_ROOT%
# EIGEN3_DIR <- %EIGEN3_ROOT%\cmake
#
# EIGEN3_INCLUDE_DIR: variable needed for file %EIGEN3_ROOT%/cmake/FindEigen3.cmake
#
# CMAKE_MODULE_PATH: Search path for the module Eigen3 to be loaded by find_package
#
SET( EIGEN3_INCLUDE_DIR "$ENV{EIGEN3_INCLUDE_DIR}" )
SET( CMAKE_MODULE_PATH "$ENV{EIGEN3_DIR}" )
find_package( Eigen3 3.3 REQUIRED )
# include_directories is needed for the compiler to know where looking for Eigen3 header files to be included
include_directories( ${EIGEN3_INCLUDE_DIR} )
add_executable(PROJECT_NAME FILES...)
You can then call the Eigen3 libraries, such as:
#include <Eigen/Core>
Eigen is a header only library, so you don't have to add it to target_link_library, and you don't need a CMake Macro to detect it.
Instead just add the header file into your include path and you should be set.
I'm setting up a C++17 project in CLion and i wanted to use java native interface, but here comes the problem. FindJNI.cmake fails with error:
Could NOT find JNI (missing: JAVA_INCLUDE_PATH JAVA_INCLUDE_PATH2)
Ive tried to manually set JAVA_INCLUDE_PATH in my CMakeLists.txt using:
set(JAVA_INCLUDE_PATH "$ENV{JAVA_HOME}/include") (and the same with PATH2), it only partly solves the problem because then cmake output is Found JNI: /usr/lib/jvm/default/lib/amd64/libjawt.so
My CMakeLists.txt
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.14)
project(project1)
set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD 17)
find_package(JNI REQUIRED)
add_executable(project1 main.cpp)
NOTE: I have JAVA_HOME set to /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk and java-8-openjdk package installed from AUR.
Have you tried adding includes with this one
include_directories( ${CMAKE_JAVA_} $ENV{JAVA_HOME}/include $ENV{JAVA_HOME}/include/linux )
I am trying to run the example given in protobuf repo here, the c++ version. I have successfully installed the library and am able to run the Makefile. But on running the CMakeLists.txt, I get this error:

EDIT 2:
After trying for 2 hours, I couldn't fix the CMakeLists.txt provided by google examples. I wrote this basic one and it works for me:
PROJECT(protopuff)
CMAKE_MINIMUM_REQUIRED (VERSION 3.5)
SET(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "-g -Wall -Werror -std=c++11")
INCLUDE(FindProtobuf)
FIND_PACKAGE(Protobuf REQUIRED)

TARGET_LINK_LIBRARIES(${CMAKE_PROJECT_NAME}_add proto ${PROTOBUF_LIBRARY})
TARGET_LINK_LIBRARIES(${CMAKE_PROJECT_NAME}_list proto ${PROTOBUF_LIBRARY})
Your problem is here:
find_package(protobuf CONFIG REQUIRED)
The name should start with uppercase: Protobuf. And that is the reason why your version is working; because in there, you have used correct case (last code snippet line 6):
find_package(Protobuf REQUIRED)
Here cmake documentation for find_package
The command searches for a file called <name>Config.cmake or <lower-case-name>-config.cmake for each name specified.
in this thread fraser solved the problem but if you need to develop according to protobuf CMake config and find_package command in CMake for finding protobuf libraries. your protobuf library must be compiled with CMake and do not use configure routine .
after compile protobuf with CMake , a config file named protobuf-config.cmake will be generated into the prefix/lib/CMake/protobuf directory.
The CmakeList.txt that is provided by the OP works on Linux but it does NOT work on Windows.
There is a way to make the actual CMakeList.txt work without any changes. The problem is that it requires the CONFIG parameter and that part is not documented anywhere. We need to provide the path to that config using -Dprotobuf_DIR parameter while generating the project.
On Windows, wherever you have installed protobuf, it will have bin, cmake, include, lib folders. We need to give the path of this cmake folder as an argument, like following:
cmake -G "Visual Studio 16 2019" -A x64 -B _build2 -Dprotobuf_DIR=C:/protobuf/install/cmake
This will build a solution file in the current directory.
