<br>You might want to consider adding the REQUIRED keyword to the find_package() command if the package is absolutely essential to compiling your entire project. It should yield a far more useful error message if the package is not found.<br>
<br>If you don't declare a package REQUIRED, a good rule of thumb is to use conditionals keyed on the CMake module's found variable (e.g OPENGL_FOUND ) to control where you use it.<br><b><br>find_package(Foo)<br>if(FOO_FOUND)<br>
include_directories(${FOO_INCLUDE_DIR})<br>endif()<br></b></div></div><br>-- <br>Philip Lowman<br>
