Wrong link path for dependencies when using windows-*-static #1337

Open TheCycoONE opened 5 months ago

TheCycoONE commented 5 months ago

FluidSynth version

2.3.5

Describe the bug

When building a program that statically links fluidsynth and and uses static linkage on windows with vcpkg the libraries added by FindGLib2 do not contain their absolute path, and linking may fail. e.g.:

D:/a/CorsixTH/CorsixTH/build/win-x64-rel/vcpkg_installed/x64-windows-static-release/share/fluidsynth/FindGLib2.cmake(219): set_target_properties(GLib2::gobject-2 PROPERTIES IMPORTED_LOCATION D:/a/CorsixTH/CorsixTH/build/win-x64-rel/vcpkg_installed/x64-windows-static-release/lib/gobject-2.0.lib INTERFACE_COMPILE_OPTIONS INTERFACE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES D:/a/CorsixTH/CorsixTH/build/win-x64-rel/vcpkg_installed/x64-windows-static-release/include/glib-2.0;D:/a/CorsixTH/CorsixTH/build/win-x64-rel/vcpkg_installed/x64-windows-static-release/lib/glib-2.0/include INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES libffi;GLib2::glib-2 INTERFACE_LINK_DIRECTORIES )

The same is true for the pcre dependency.

Expected behavior

I would expect all libraries found to have their absolute path so that they can be linked properly.

Additional context

A cmake run with tracing is logged here: https://github.com/CorsixTH/CorsixTH/actions/runs/9532652685/job/26274993008

Related vcpkg ticket: https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg/issues/36139

derselbst commented 5 months ago

Thanks for the report and the trace logs. So, yes, there is a copy paste error in this line

https://github.com/FluidSynth/fluidsynth/blob/231b6905f16cd978f30ddfe4c391233b1e0f6697/cmake_admin/FindGLib2.cmake#L38

which should be PC_GOBJECT2. Then, the INTERFACE_LINK_DIRECTORIES property of the GLib2::gobject-2 should be populated correctly. However, this target is unused, as the vcpkg version of fluidsynth seems to have been built without libinstpatch support, so it doesn't matter.

The problem of the build log you have linked is

LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'intl.lib'

However, all the cmake-related places I see in that log is where intl.lib is referenced by absolute path. Yet, the linker search path is obviously missing in the build command, and I currently don't see why. _glib2_link_directories is correctly populated and propagated to the target (see 2024-06-16T02:28:36.0189181Z).

@pedrolcl might have a look, maybe I'm missing something.

sets the relative path intl.lib, iconv.lib, pcre2-8.lib on GLib2::glib-2. It has an INTERFACE_LINK_DIRECTOREIS, but that's lost and only the INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES are passed on in FluidSynthTargets.cmake

links to FluidSynth::libfluidsynth

as I read the trace.

TheCycoONE commented 5 months ago

I'm not at all an expert either in cmake or your use case so take this with a grain of salt, but wouldn't it be possible to use IMPORTED_TARGET on the pkg_check_modules call and skip most of the hand coded extraction?

derselbst commented 5 months ago

wouldn't it be possible to use IMPORTED_TARGET on the pkg_check_modules call and skip most of the hand coded extraction?

That hand coded extraction in PkgConfigHelpers.cmake gives us control over the target name to use. I.e. if pkgconfig fails to discover that lib, we just create a target with the same name and populate it through the CMake find_package() logic. Apart from that, CMake's official logic for IMPORTED_TARGET does not account for private dependencies of a library, whereas our logic does: https://github.com/Kitware/CMake/blob/b83fabd0d3e29247618f6cd8e975894096e17a66/Modules/FindPkgConfig.cmake#L339-L356

I agree that FluidSynthTargets.cmake is the culprit. But it's autogenerated. I need to figure out how to convince cmake to populate the INTERFACE_LINK_DIRECTORIES or LINK_DIRECTORIES properties.

derselbst commented 5 months ago

Can you pls. try the following:

In FluidSynthTargets.cmake, locate the line

  INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES "\$<LINK_ONLY:FluidSynth::libfluidsynth-OBJ>"

and replace it by

  INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES "FluidSynth::libfluidsynth-OBJ"

From my understanding of the docs, the INTERFACE_LINK_DIRECTORIES should now be queried and propagated from all depending targets.

TheCycoONE commented 5 months ago

That edit did not resolve the issue.

TheCycoONE commented 5 months ago

I tried a couple other things that didn't help too; the gobject fix mentioned at the top; using target_link_libraries instead of target_set_properties, and setting interface_link_directories with the list of targets, even explicitly setting with:

set_target_properties(FluidSynth::libfluidsynth PROPERTIES
  INTERFACE_LINK_DIRECTORIES "C:/Users/User/CorsixTH/build/win-x64-rel/vcpkg_installed/x64-windows-static-release/lib")

So far the only things that have worked are removing fluidsynth :frowning_face:; or explicitly setting the link directory in my own CMakeList.txt on my target.

TheCycoONE commented 5 months ago

https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg/blob/master/ports/qtbase/GLIB2-static.patch may be useful, or maybe a similar patch should be applied upstream by vcpkg.

derselbst commented 5 months ago

Please try

set_target_properties(FluidSynth::libfluidsynth PROPERTIES
  LINK_DIRECTORIES "C:/Users/User/CorsixTH/build/win-x64-rel/vcpkg_installed/x64-windows-static-release/lib")

the gobject fix mentioned at the top

Please confirm that this fix correctly populates the INTERFACE_LINK_DIRECTORIES property of the GLib2::gobject-2 target, you have mentioned initially.

Btw, where exactly in CorsixTH is libfluidsynth linked against?

TheCycoONE commented 5 months ago

There were two lines that I had to change:

                                          "PC_GOBJECT2" "_gobject2")

originally is missing the G, as well as the line you mentioned.

Changing both of those does fix that line in the cmake trace: set_target_properties(GLib2::gobject-2 PROPERTIES IMPORTED_LOCATION C:/Users/User/CorsixTH/build/win-x64-rel/vcpkg_installed/x64-windows-static-release/lib/gobject-2.0.lib INTERFACE_COMPILE_OPTIONS INTERFACE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES C:/Users/User/CorsixTH/build/win-x64-rel/vcpkg_installed/x64-windows-static-release/include/glib-2.0;C:/Users/User/CorsixTH/build/win-x64-rel/vcpkg_installed/x64-windows-static-release/lib/glib-2.0/include INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES glib-2.0;intl;iconv;ws2_32;winmm;pcre2-8;ffi INTERFACE_LINK_DIRECTORIES C:/Users/User/CorsixTH/build/win-x64-rel/vcpkg_installed/x64-windows-static-release/lib )

For the second question, CorsixTH doesn't directly link fluidsynth but does so indirectly through sdl2_mixer.

From our vcpkg.json

  "features": {
    "audio": {
      "description": "In game audio support",
      "dependencies": [
         {
           "name": "fluidsynth",
           "platform": "!osx",
           "features": [
             "sndfile"
           ]
        },
        {
          "name": "sdl2-mixer",
          "features": [
            "libmodplug",
            {
              "name": "fluidsynth",
              "platform": "!osx"
            },
            "libflac",
            "mpg123",
            "opusfile"
          ]
        }
      ]
    },

In our CMakeList.txt we do:

    if(CORSIX_TH_USE_SDL_MIXER)
  if(VCPKG_TARGET_TRIPLET)
    find_package(SDL2_mixer CONFIG REQUIRED)
    target_link_libraries(
      CorsixTH
      PRIVATE
        $<IF:$<TARGET_EXISTS:SDL2_mixer::SDL2_mixer>,SDL2_mixer::SDL2_mixer,SDL2_mixer::SDL2_mixer-static>)

SDL2_mixer-static-targets.cmake has this line:

set_target_properties(SDL2_mixer::SDL2_mixer-static PROPERTIES
  INTERFACE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES "${_IMPORT_PREFIX}/include/SDL2"
  INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES "\$<LINK_ONLY:>;\$<LINK_ONLY:OpusFile::opusfile>;\$<LINK_ONLY:Vorbis::vorbisfile>;\$<LINK_ONLY:FLAC::FLAC>;\$<LINK_ONLY:modplug::modplug>;\$<LINK_ONLY:libxmp::xmp_static>;\$<LINK_ONLY:MPG123::libmpg123>;\$<LINK_ONLY:FluidSynth::libfluidsynth>;\$<LINK_ONLY:WavPack::WavPack>"
)

There were two lines that I had to change

Ok, thanks, I just committed a fix for this.

For the second question, CorsixTH doesn't directly link fluidsynth but does so indirectly through sdl2_mixer.

Ok, so the next step should be to figure out whether the error lies in fluidsynth logic or in the way how the dependencies are propagated via sdl2_mixer. To do this, I suggest you

find_package(fluidsynth CONFIG REQUIRED)
find_package(SDL2_mixer CONFIG REQUIRED)

i.e. discover fluidsynth via the cmake logic before discovering SDL2_mixer. This will create FluidSynth::libfluidsynth target and therefore should prevent SDL2_mixer from messing with that target. Try to build.

If it fails, it might be necessary to explicitly link against liblfuidsynth

target_link_libraries(
      CorsixTH
      PRIVATE
        $<IF:$<TARGET_EXISTS:SDL2_mixer::SDL2_mixer>,SDL2_mixer::SDL2_mixer,SDL2_mixer::SDL2_mixer-static,FluidSynth::libfluidsynth>)

If that works, I'd say that the dependencies and their linker directories are correctly exposed by fluidsynth and the problem needs to be deferred to SDL2_mixer. If that doesn't work, the error clearly lies in fluidsynth. In this case please post the attach the fluidsynth.pc, sdl2-mixer.pc, glib-2.0.pc, SDL2_mixer-static-targets.cmake and FluidSynthTargets.cmake files.

@derselbst I've tried to reproduce the problem with this minimal project using SDL and SDL_mixer with Fluidsynth dependency. It can be linked statically with vcpkg dependencies without issues.

@pedrolcl I can reproduce with your project.

Checkout https://github.com/TheCycoONE/sdlmixtest/tree/repo (repo branch of my fork). I just added the vcpkg files and CMakePresets.

The x64 version does not reproduce (CorsixTH also sometimes works on my local for x64, though never in the GitHub action pipeline - I haven't figured out the criteria but this is another data point) The x86 version does reproduce.

From the root of the repo run:

cmake --preset win-x86-rel cmake --build --preset win-x86-rel

So this is a slightly different variant where glib2 is fine, only pcre is impacted.

Actually glib2 doesn't look exactly fine since it's mixing debug versions with release versions...

On the x64-windows-static triplet I'm getting the same mixed debug/release issue but no missing library paths.

I don't use the Visual Stupido Code or the siblings. I have installed only the MSVC 2019 command line build tools. As IDE, I use Qt Creator. I don't need a CMakePresets.json, the settings are provided by QtCreator.
