# Example GUI App CMakeLists.txt # To get started on a new GUI app, copy this entire folder (containing this file and C++ sources) to # a convenient location, and then start making modifications. For other examples of CMakeLists for # GUI apps, check `extras/Projucer` and `examples/DemoRunner` in the JUCE repo. # The first line of any CMake project should be a call to `cmake_minimum_required`, which checks # that the installed CMake will be able to understand the following CMakeLists, and ensures that # CMake's behaviour is compatible with the named version. This is a standard CMake command, so more # information can be found in the CMake docs. cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.15) # The top-level CMakeLists.txt file for a project must contain a literal, direct call to the # `project()` command. `project()` sets up some helpful variables that describe source/binary # directories, and the current project version. This is a standard CMake command. project(GUI_APP_EXAMPLE VERSION 0.0.1) # If you've installed JUCE somehow (via a package manager, or directly using the CMake install # target), you'll need to tell this project that it depends on the installed copy of JUCE. If you've # included JUCE directly in your source tree (perhaps as a submodule), you'll need to tell CMake to # include that subdirectory as part of the build. # find_package(JUCE CONFIG REQUIRED) # If you've installed JUCE to your system # or # add_subdirectory(JUCE) # If you've put JUCE in a subdirectory called JUCE # If your app depends the VST2 SDK, perhaps to host VST2 plugins, CMake needs to be told where # to find the SDK on your system. This setup should be done before calling `juce_add_gui_app`. # juce_set_vst2_sdk_path(...) # `juce_add_gui_app` adds an executable target with the name passed as the first argument # (GuiAppExample here). This target is a normal CMake target, but has a lot of extra properties set # up by default. This function accepts many optional arguments. Check the readme at # `docs/CMake API.md` in the JUCE repo for the full list. juce_add_gui_app(GuiAppExample # VERSION ... # Set this if the app version is different to the project version # ICON_BIG ... # ICON_* arguments specify a path to an image file to use as an icon # ICON_SMALL ... # DOCUMENT_EXTENSIONS ... # Specify file extensions that should be associated with this app # COMPANY_NAME ... # Specify the name of the app's author PRODUCT_NAME "Gui App Example") # The name of the final executable, which can differ from the target name # `juce_generate_juce_header` will create a JuceHeader.h for a given target, which will be generated # into your build tree. This should be included with `#include `. The include path for # this header will be automatically added to the target. The main function of the JuceHeader is to # include all your JUCE module headers; if you're happy to include module headers directly, you # probably don't need to call this. # juce_generate_juce_header(GuiAppExample) # `target_sources` adds source files to a target. We pass the target that needs the sources as the # first argument, then a visibility parameter for the sources which should normally be PRIVATE. # Finally, we supply a list of source files that will be built into the target. This is a standard # CMake command. target_sources(GuiAppExample PRIVATE Main.cpp MainComponent.cpp) # `target_compile_definitions` adds some preprocessor definitions to our target. In a Projucer # project, these might be passed in the 'Preprocessor Definitions' field. JUCE modules also make use # of compile definitions to switch certain features on/off, so if there's a particular feature you # need that's not on by default, check the module header for the correct flag to set here. These # definitions will be visible both to your code, and also the JUCE module code, so for new # definitions, pick unique names that are unlikely to collide!

The first argument is the name of # a new static library target that will include all the binary resources.
