I'm trying to build a curses program that uses CMake on Windows with MinGW and PDCurses. I'm using CMake 3.7.1, and all my MinGW packages are up-to-date. Specifically, i have mingw32-libpdcurses
3.4-1 (both dev
and dll
) and mingw32-pdcurses
3.4-1 (bin
, doc
and lic
) installed.
My full CMakeLists.txt is below, but using find_package(Curses REQUIRED)
gives an error: Could NOT find Curses (missing: CURSES_LIBRARY)
. This other question deals with a similar situation; the answer's author says he hasn't tested PDCurses on MinGW, but that it should work.
(I had the same results using CMake 3.6.3, which is bundled with CLion).
My CMakeLists.txt:
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.3)
project(PROJECT_NAME)
if(WIN32)
set(PATH "C:\\MinGW")
endif()
find_package(Curses REQUIRED)
include_directories(${CURSES_INCLUDE_DIR})
set(CMAKE_C_FLAGS "${CMAKE_C_FLAGS} -std=c99 -g -Wall")
set(SOURCE_FILES src/init.c etc...)
add_executable(project_name ${SOURCE_FILES})
target_link_libraries(project_name ${CURSES_LIBRARIES} m)
Am I doing something wrong? Are there any workarounds?
Thanks a lot!
