ecm-find-modules - ECM Find Modules Reference
INTRODUCTION
Find modules are used by the CMake find_package command to search for packages that do not provide their own CMake package config files. CMake provides an extensive set of find modules, and Extra CMake Modules (ECM) adds to that. To use ECM’s find modules, you need to tell CMake to find the ECM package, and then add either ${ECM_MODULE_PATH} or ${ECM_FIND_MODULE_DIR} to the CMAKE_MODULE_PATH variable: find_package(ECM REQUIRED NO_MODULE) set(CMAKE_MODULE_PATH ${ECM_FIND_MODULE_DIR}) Using ${ECM_MODULE_PATH} will also make the modules intended for direct use by CMake scripts available (see ecm-modules(7) and ecm-kde-modules(7)). You can also make local copies of find modules using the ecm_use_find_modules function from ECMUseFindModules, which is automatically included when ECM is found: find_package(ECM REQUIRED NO_MODULE) ecm_use_find_modules( DIR "${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/cmake" MODULES FindEGL.cmake ) set(CMAKE_MODULE_PATH "${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/cmake") This allows selective use of ECM’s find modules, and the NO_OVERRIDE argument can be used to ensure that if CMake ships its own version of that find module, it will be used instead.
ALL FIND MODULES
Find7Zip Try to find 7-Zip. If the 7-Zip executable is not in your PATH, you can provide an alternative name or full path location with the 7Zip_EXECUTABLE variable. This will define the following variables: 7Zip_FOUND TRUE if 7-Zip is available 7Zip_EXECUTABLE Path to 7-Zip executable If 7Zip_FOUND is TRUE, it will also define the following imported target: 7Zip::7Zip Path to 7-Zip executable NOTE: It will see to only find the original 7-Zip, not one of the p7zip forks. Since 5.113.0. Find7z Try to find 7z. If the 7z executable is not in your PATH, you can provide an alternative name or full path location with the 7z_EXECUTABLE variable. This will define the following variables: 7z_FOUND TRUE if 7z is available 7z_EXECUTABLE Path to 7z executable If 7z_FOUND is TRUE, it will also define the following imported target: 7z::7z Path to 7z executable NOTE: Only works on Windows. Deprecated: since 5.113, use Find7Zip. Since 5.85.0. FindCanberra Try to find Canberra event sound library. This will define the following variables: Canberra_FOUND True if (the requested version of) Canberra is available Canberra_VERSION The version of Canberra Canberra_LIBRARIES The libraries of Canberra for use with target_link_libraries() Canberra_INCLUDE_DIRS The include dirs of Canberra for use with target_include_directories() If Canberra_FOUND is TRUE, it will also define the following imported target: Canberra::Canberra The Canberra library In general we recommend using the imported target, as it is easier to use. Bear in mind, however, that if the target is in the link interface of an exported library, it must be made available by the package config file. Since 5.56.0. FindEGL Try to find EGL. This will define the following variables: EGL_FOUND True if (the requested version of) EGL is available EGL_VERSION The version of EGL; note that this is the API version defined in the headers, rather than the version of the implementation (eg: Mesa) EGL_LIBRARIES This can be passed to target_link_libraries() instead of the EGL::EGL target EGL_INCLUDE_DIRS This should be passed to target_include_directories() if the target is not used for linking EGL_DEFINITIONS This should be passed to target_compile_options() if the target is not used for linking If EGL_FOUND is TRUE, it will also define the following imported target: EGL::EGL The EGL library In general we recommend using the imported target, as it is easier to use. Bear in mind, however, that if the target is in the link interface of an exported library, it must be made available by the package config file. Since pre-1.0.0. FindGLIB2 Try to locate the GLib2 library. If found, this will define the following variables: GLIB2_FOUND True if the GLib2 library is available GLIB2_INCLUDE_DIRS The GLib2 include directories GLIB2_LIBRARIES The GLib2 libraries for linking GLIB2_INCLUDE_DIR Deprecated, use GLIB2_INCLUDE_DIRS GLIB2_LIBRARY Deprecated, use GLIB2_LIBRARIES If GLIB2_FOUND is TRUE, it will also define the following imported target: GLIB2::GLIB2 The GLIB2 library GLIB2::GTHREAD2 The GThread2 library (since 6.7.0) GLIB2::GOBJECT The GObject library (since 6.7.0) GLIB2::GIO The GIO library (since 6.7.0) Since 5.41.0. FindGperf Try to find GNU gperf. If the gperf executable is not in your PATH, you can provide an alternative name or full path location with the Gperf_EXECUTABLE variable. This will define the following variables: Gperf_FOUND True if gperf is available. Gperf_EXECUTABLE The gperf executable. Gperf_VERSION The gperf version. (since 5.85) If Gperf_FOUND is TRUE, it will also define the following imported target: GPerf::Gperf The gperf executable. and the following public function: ecm_gperf_generate(<GperfInput> <OutputFile> <OutputVariable(|target (since 5.83))> [GENERATION_FLAGS <flags>]) Run gperf on <GperfInput> to generate <OutputFile>, adding it to the <OutputVariable> variable which contains the source for the target where <OutputFile> is going to be built or, since KF 5.83, if the given argument is a target, to the list of private sources of that target. The target must not be an alias. The optional GENERATION_FLAGS argument is needed to pass extra parameters to gperf (note you cannot override that way the output file). A simple invocation would be: ecm_gperf_generate(simple.gperf ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/simple.h MySources) Since 5.35.0. FindGradle Provides the ability to build Android AAR libraries using Gradle. This relies on the Qt provided Gradle, so a Qt for Android installation is required. gradle_add_aar(<target> BUIDLFILE build.gradle NAME <aar-name>) This builds an Android AAR library using the given build.gradle file. gradle_install_aar(<target> DESTINATION <dest>) Installs a Android AAR library that has been created with gradle_add_aar. Since 5.76.0. FindIcoTool Try to find icotool. If the icotool executable is not in your PATH, you can provide an alternative name or full path location with the IcoTool_EXECUTABLE variable. This will define the following variables: IcoTool_FOUND True if icotool is available. IcoTool_EXECUTABLE The icotool executable. If IcoTool_FOUND is TRUE, it will also define the following imported target: IcoTool::IcoTool The icotool executable. Since 5.49. FindInotify Try to find inotify on this system. This finds: • libinotify on Unix like systems, or • the kernel’s inotify on Linux systems. This will define the following variables: Inotify_FOUND True if inotify is available Inotify_LIBRARIES This has to be passed to target_link_libraries() Inotify_INCLUDE_DIRS This has to be passed to target_include_directories() On Linux and SunOS, the libraries and include directories are empty, even though Inotify_FOUND may be set to TRUE. This is because no special includes or libraries are needed. On other systems these may be needed to use inotify. Since 5.32.0. FindIsoCodes Try to find iso-codes data files. Once done this will define: IsoCodes_FOUND Whether the system has iso-codes IsoCodes_PREFIX The location in which the iso-codes data files are found IsoCodes_DOMAINS The available domains provided by iso-codes Since 5.80.0. FindKF5 Find KDE Frameworks 5 with a single find_package() call. This will use the package config files provided by the individual frameworks. For example, if you wish to find KArchive, which presents itself to CMake as KF5Archive (ie: you would do find_package(KF5Archive) to find it directly), you can do find_package(KF5 COMPONENTS Archive) If all the required components (those given in the COMPONENTS argument, but not those given in the OPTIONAL_COMPONENTS argument) are found, KF5_FOUND will be set to true. Otherwise, it will be set to false. Since pre-1.0.0. FindLibExiv2 Try to find the Exiv2 library. This will define the following variables: LibExiv2_FOUND True if (the requested version of) Exiv2 is available LibExiv2_VERSION The version of Exiv2 LibExiv2_INCLUDE_DIRS The include dirs of Exiv2 for use with target_include_directories() LibExiv2_LIBRARIES The Exiv2 library for use with target_link_libraries().

Bear in mind, however, that if the target is in the link interface of an exported library, it must be made available by the package config file. Since 5.53.0. FindLibGit2 Try to find libgit2 on a Unix system. This will define the following variables: LIBGIT2_FOUND True if (the requested version of) libgit2 is available LIBGIT2_VERSION The version of libgit2 LIBGIT2_LIBRARIES This can be passed to target_link_libraries() instead of the LibGit2::LibGit2 target LIBGIT2_INCLUDE_DIRS This should be passed to target_include_directories() if the target is not used for linking LIBGIT2_DEFINITIONS This should be passed to target_compile_options() if the target is not used for linking If LIBGIT2_FOUND is TRUE, it will also define the following imported target: LibGit2::LibGit2 The libgit2 library In general we recommend using the imported target, as it is easier to use. Bear in mind, however, that if the target is in the link interface of an exported library, it must be made available by the package config file. Since 1.3.0.

Bear in mind, however, that if the target is in the link interface of an exported library, it must be made available by the package config file. Since pre-1.0.0. FindPhoneNumber Try to find PhoneNumber. This is a component-based find module, which makes use of the COMPONENTS and OPTIONAL_COMPONENTS arguments to find_module. The following components are available: PhoneNumber GeoCoding If no components are specified, this module will act as though all components were passed to OPTIONAL_COMPONENTS. This module will define the following variables, independently of the components searched for or found: PhoneNumber_FOUND True if (the requestion version of) PhoneNumber is available For each searched-for components, PhoneNumber_<component>_FOUND will be set to TRUE if the corresponding library was found, and FALSE otherwise.

If Poppler_<component>_FOUND is TRUE, the imported target Poppler::<component> will be defined. This module will also attempt to determine Poppler_*_VERSION variables for each imported target, although Poppler_VERSION should normally be sufficient. In general we recommend using the imported targets, as they are easier to use and provide more control. Bear in mind, however, that if any target is in the link interface of an exported library, it must be made available by the package config file.
