Adding library though FetchContent won't work.

[Wolftein]

I'm getting CMake Error: install(EXPORT "FAudio-targets-shared" ...) includes target "FAudio-shared" which requires target "SDL3-static" that is not in any export set. when using:

SET(XNASONG            OFF)
SET(BUILD_SHARED_LIBS, OFF)
SET(BUILD_SDL3         ON)
SET(SDL3_INCLUDE_DIRS  ${external_sdl_SOURCE_DIR}/include)
SET(SDL3_LIBRARIES     "SDL3-static")

FetchContent_Declare(External_FAudio
        GIT_REPOSITORY https://github.com/FNA-XNA/FAudio)
FetchContent_MakeAvailable(External_FAudio)

TARGET_LINK_LIBRARIES(${PROJECT_NAME} PUBLIC "FAudio-static")

If I remove "INSTALL" from CMake then it works.

@rkitover, any ideas?

[rkitover]

I will take a look.

@Wolftein Which install() commands did you remove?

[rkitover]

I should note that FetchContent should be used with EXCLUDE_FROM_ALL to disable the installation of any files from things you are just using as a library, component or whatever. Unless you actually need to install a dll or something.

Also, in a subproject the targets are defined directly in the same CMake session.

If there is an issue here, I need more details. I still can't even test or run anything because of US government ****s.

I added EXCLUDE_FROM_ALL but still getting an error.

CMake Error: install(EXPORT "FAudio-targets-static" ...) includes target "FAudio-static" which requires target "SDL3-static" that is not in any export set.

Try this:

add_dependencies(FAudio-static SDL3-static)

. That can be anywhere.
