#59 build without cmake??

[robert meyer]

hi - is there any way to build this package with regular makefiles?

I'm having quite a bit of trouble building with cmake (linux 64 bit - centos)

following build instructions, but getting errors such as this:

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:22 (set_target_properties):
set_target_properties called with incorrect number of arguments.

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:30 (install):
install TARGETS given no LIBRARY DESTINATION for shared library target
"zint".

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:31 (install):
install FILES given no DESTINATION!

thanks in advance for any assistance.

While it should be possible to make Zint without CMake, I'm afraid that I have relied upon it for so long now that I wouldn't know how to go about it. I think the real issue here is why is CMake not working - it certainly shouldn't be a problem for 64bit CentOS. I take it you are using the latest version with updates? I will get a copy of the ISO and see if I can reproduce the problem.

CentOS tend to have very old software.
What is your CMake and CentOS version?

I think, I have build zint on CentOS 6.x which worked o.k.
I have a CentOS 6.9. here.

Do you have CentOS 5,6 or 7 ?

Thank you,
Harald

I'm afraid I wasn't able to reproduce this error. This is what I did:

Get a fresh DVD ISO of CentOS 7
Create a new VM and install "KDE Plasma Workspaces" base environment with "KDE Applications" and "Development Tools" add-ons.
sudo yum install cmake libpng-devel qt5-qtbase qt5-qtbase-devel qt5-qttools-static
git clone ssh://g3rrk@git.code.sf.net/p/zint/code zint-code
cd ./zint-code
cmake
sudo make install

The cmake from the repository was version 2.8.12.2. It threw no errors.

So I can only guess that there is a deeper problem with your OS for which your local LUG may be more qualified to help.

No follow-up response. Assuming problem is now resolved.
