CMake error during build in Mac OSX #44

Closed lea-urpa closed 3 years ago

lea-urpa commented 6 years ago

Hello! I'm trying to build Madeline 2.0 locally on my Mac, running OSX 10.11.6. I'm having a recurrent error:

-- === NOTA BENE: === Madeline will be installed in /usr/local
CMake Error at /opt/local/share/cmake-3.9/Modules/FindDoxygen.cmake:542 (elseif):
  given arguments:

"NOT" "doxygen" "IN_LIST" "Doxygen_FIND_COMPONENTS"

  Unknown arguments specified
 Call Stack (most recent call first):
  CMakeLists.txt:57 (INCLUDE)

-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

I realize that this is a CMake error, so this might not be the best place to ask, but debugging this kind of build is a bit over my head- a few hints would be appreciated!

I've installed XCode (version 7.3.1), gettext (v. 0.19.8.1), and reinstalled doxygen (1.8.13).

I also ran into this problem. The issue is with newer version of cmake > 3.3 the IN_LIST policy has changed.

The simplest solution is to increase the CMAKE_MINIMUM_REQUIRED to 3.3

Copy the following text (including the blank new line at the end) to a file called cmake_patch.diff.

diff --git a/CMakeLists.txt b/CMakeLists.txt
index b802c91..fa094f8 100644
--- a/CMakeLists.txt
+++ b/CMakeLists.txt
@@ -6,7 +6,7 @@
 #     Released under the GNU GPL

 PROJECT(MADELINE)
-CMAKE_MINIMUM_REQUIRED(VERSION 3.1)
+CMAKE_MINIMUM_REQUIRED(VERSION 3.3)
 SET(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD 11)
 MARK_AS_ADVANCED(CMAKE_BACKWARDS_COMPATIBILITY)

Next apply the change with:

git apply cmake_patch.diff

You should now be able to compile on osx.

This is resolved now as suggested by Shelnutt2 above.
