Building mongo-cxx-driver using CMake ExternalProject_Add

问题


I am trying to build mongo-cxx-driver in a CMake based project. This project is supposed to build on Windows, macOS and in an ubuntu container and I want to ensure that my software on all these platforms will use the same driver version so I cannot afford installing the driver and its dependencies via apt-get, brew etc. So I am left with one option: ExternalProject_Add. But I am having difficulty making that work given how libmongoc is setup. Below is the CMake module I currently have.

include(ExternalProject)

set(libmongoc_CMAKE_ARGS
    "-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:STRIING=${CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE}"
    "-DENABLE_TESTS:BOOL=OFF"
    "-DENABLE_STATIC:BOOL=OFF"
    "-DENABLE_EXAMPLES:BOOL=OFF"
    "-DENABLE_EXTRA_ALIGNMENT:BOOL=OFF"
)

set(mongocxx_CMAKE_ARGS
    "-DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=${CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER}"
    "-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:STRIING=${CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE}"
    "-DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS:BOOL=ON"
    "-DENABLE_TESTS:BOOL=OFF"
    "-DENABLE_EXAMPLES:BOOL=OFF"
    "-DBSONCXX_POLY_USE_BOOST:BOOL=ON"
    "-DBSONCXX_POLY_USE_MNMLSTC:BOOL=OFF"
    "-Dlibbson-1.0_DIR:PATH=${OTS_DEPDENDENCIES_DIR}/libmongoc/src/libbson"
)

if (NOT TARGET libmongoc)
    ExternalProject_Add(
        libmongoc
        GIT_REPOSITORY  "https://github.com/mongodb/mongo-c-driver.git"
        GIT_TAG         "1.12.0"
        SOURCE_DIR      "${OTS_DEPDENDENCIES_DIR}/libmongoc"
        BINARY_DIR      "${OTS_DEPDENDENCIES_DIR}/libmongoc"
        CMAKE_ARGS      "${libmongoc_CMAKE_ARGS}"
        INSTALL_COMMAND ""
    )
endif()

if (NOT TARGET mongocxx)
    ExternalProject_Add(
        mongocxx
        GIT_REPOSITORY  "https://github.com/mongodb/mongo-cxx-driver.git"
        GIT_TAG         "r3.3.1"
        SOURCE_DIR      "${OTS_DEPDENDENCIES_DIR}/mongocxx"
        BINARY_DIR      "${OTS_DEPDENDENCIES_DIR}/mongocxx"
        CMAKE_ARGS      "${mongocxx_CMAKE_ARGS}"
        INSTALL_COMMAND ""
        DEPENDS         libmongoc
    )
endif()

Note the CMAKE option libbson-1.0_DIR given as one of the CMAKE_ARGS for mongo-cxx-driver. I am skeptic about it and I believe that may be the culprit. With it I get the following error:

CMake Error at ${OTS_DEPENDENCIES_DIR}/libmongoc/src/libbson/libbson-1.0-config.cmake:30 (message):
    File or directory
    ${OTS_DEPENDENCIES_DIR}/include/libbson-1.0
    referenced by variable BSON_INCLUDE_DIRS does not exist !
Call Stack (most recent call first):
    ${OTS_DEPENDENCIES_DIR}/libmongoc/src/libbson/libbson-1.0-config.cmake:46 (set_and_check)
    src/bsoncxx/CMakeLists.txt:81 (find_package)

which kind of makes sense because src/bsoncxx/CMakeLists.txt:81 reads:

get_filename_component(PACKAGE_PREFIX_DIR "${CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_DIR}/../../../" ABSOLUTE)
set_and_check (BSON_INCLUDE_DIRS "${PACKAGE_PREFIX_DIR}/include/libbson-1.0")

which makes CMake end up looking for libbson-1.0 in ${OTS_DEPDENDENCIES_DIR}/include that does not exist. If only, I could tell cmake, "hey don't run this find_package" I can give you the path to INCLUDE_DIR, LIBRARIES and DEFINITIONS myself.

If I remove this option, I get the following error:

CMake Error at src/bsoncxx/CMakeLists.txt:81 (find_package):
By not providing "Findlibbson-1.0.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this project
has asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by
"libbson-1.0", but CMake did not find one.

Could not find a package configuration file provided by "libbson-1.0"
(requested version 1.10.0) with any of the following names:

libbson-1.0Config.cmake
libbson-1.0-config.cmake

Add the installation prefix of "libbson-1.0" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set
"libbson-1.0_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above files.  If
"libbson-1.0" provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it
has been installed.

which is not very odd either because CMake tries to find_package libbson-1.0 but cannot figure out where it is installed.

preliminary remarks

While looking at the details, here are few preliminary comments:

  • Use different directory for SOURCE_DIR and BINARY_DIR
  • Instead of CMAKE_ARG, prefer CMAKE_CACHE_ARGS
  • libbson-1.0_DIR should NOT be set to a source directory, instead if should be set to a build directory containing a config-file package (link below provide more details about this concept)
  • Make sure to always specify the type of CMake argument (-DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER:PATH=${CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER} instead of -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=${CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER})
  • Do not set CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE for multi-configuration generator

Regarding this last point, this means that you should do the following:

set(EXTERNAL_PROJECT_OPTIONAL_CMAKE_CACHE_ARGS)
if(NOT DEFINED CMAKE_CONFIGURATION_TYPES)
  list(APPEND EXTERNAL_PROJECT_OPTIONAL_CMAKE_CACHE_ARGS
    -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:STRING=${CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE}
    )
endif()
