我也有同样的问题。

我的项目目录是这样的:

    --project
    ---Classes
    ----Application
    -----.h and .c files
    ----OtherFolders
    --main.cpp

我在这些文件夹中存放文件的方法是:

    file(GLOB source_files CONFIGURE_DEPENDS
            "*.h"
            "*.cpp"
            "Classes/*/*.cpp"
            "Classes/*/*.h"
    )

    add_executable(Server ${source_files})

这完全奏效了。

这招对我很管用:

set(SOURCE main.cpp)
add_executable(${PROJECT_NAME} ${SOURCE})

# target_include_directories must be added AFTER add_executable
target_include_directories(${PROJECT_NAME} PUBLIC ${INTERNAL_INCLUDES})

必须做两件事。

首先添加要包含的目录:

target_include_directories(test PRIVATE ${YOUR_DIRECTORY})

如果你被一个非常旧的CMake版本(2.8.10或更老)所困，不支持target_include_directories，你也可以使用遗留的include_directories来代替:

include_directories(${YOUR_DIRECTORY})

然后你还必须将头文件添加到当前目标的源文件列表中，例如:

set(SOURCES file.cpp file2.cpp ${YOUR_DIRECTORY}/file1.h ${YOUR_DIRECTORY}/file2.h)
add_executable(test ${SOURCES})

这样，头文件将作为依赖项出现在Makefile中，例如，如果生成了一个Visual Studio项目，头文件也将作为依赖项出现在生成的Visual Studio项目中。

如何使用这些头文件的几个目标:

set(HEADER_FILES ${YOUR_DIRECTORY}/file1.h ${YOUR_DIRECTORY}/file2.h)

add_library(mylib libsrc.cpp ${HEADER_FILES})
target_include_directories(mylib PRIVATE ${YOUR_DIRECTORY})
add_executable(myexec execfile.cpp ${HEADER_FILES})
target_include_directories(myexec PRIVATE ${YOUR_DIRECTORY})

怎么做

1. 顶层的CMakeLists.txt非常类似于配方1，代码重用函数和宏

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.5 FATAL_ERROR)
  
project(recipe-07 LANGUAGES CXX)

set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD 11)
set(CMAKE_CXX_EXTENSIONS OFF)
set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD_REQUIRED ON)

include(GNUInstallDirs)
set(CMAKE_ARCHIVE_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY
  ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/${CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR})
set(CMAKE_LIBRARY_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY
  ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/${CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR})
set(CMAKE_RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY
  ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/${CMAKE_INSTALL_BINDIR})

# defines targets and sources
add_subdirectory(src)

# contains an "external" library we will link to
add_subdirectory(external)

# enable testing and define tests
enable_testing()
add_subdirectory(tests)

2.目标和源定义在src/CMakeLists.txt中(转换目标除外)

add_executable(automata main.cpp)
  
add_subdirectory(evolution)
add_subdirectory(initial)
add_subdirectory(io)
add_subdirectory(parser)

target_link_libraries(automata
  PRIVATE
    conversion
    evolution
    initial
    io
    parser
  )

3.转换库定义在external/CMakeLists.txt中

add_library(conversion "")

target_sources(conversion
  PRIVATE
    ${CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_DIR}/conversion.cpp
  PUBLIC
    ${CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_DIR}/conversion.hpp
  )

target_include_directories(conversion
  PUBLIC
    ${CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_DIR}
  )

4.src/CMakeLists.txt文件添加了更多的子目录，这些子目录又包含CMakeLists.txt文件。它们的结构都很相似;src/evolution/CMakeLists.txt包含以下内容:

add_library(evolution "")

target_sources(evolution
  PRIVATE
    ${CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_DIR}/evolution.cpp
  PUBLIC
    ${CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_DIR}/evolution.hpp
  )
target_include_directories(evolution
  PUBLIC
    ${CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_DIR}
  )

5.单元测试注册在tests/CMakeLists.txt中

add_executable(cpp_test test.cpp)

target_link_libraries(cpp_test evolution)

add_test(
  NAME
    test_evolution
  COMMAND
    $<TARGET_FILE:cpp_test>
  )

如何运行它

$ mkdir -p build
$ cd build
$ cmake ..
$ cmake --build .

不要忘记包含${CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_DIR}。 这就是给我带来麻烦的原因。

示例应该是这样的:

target_include_directories(projectname
    PUBLIC "${CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_DIR}/include"                          
)

PUBLIC用于您想要包含在父项目中的依赖项。 对于那些你不喜欢的人来说是私密的。

首先，使用include_directories()告诉CMake将目录作为-I添加到编译命令行。其次，在add_executable()或add_library()调用中列出头文件。

举个例子，如果你的项目源在src中，你需要include中的头文件，你可以这样做:

include_directories(include)

add_executable(MyExec
  src/main.c
  src/other_source.c
  include/header1.h
  include/header2.h
)
