/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lwtfcgi
Added by Gage Herrmann over 13 years ago
I am getting this) linker error when trying to compile:
Linking CXX executable wtHello.wt
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lwtfcgi
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[2]: *** [source/wtHello.wt] Error 1
make[1]: *** [source/CMakeFiles/wtHello.wt.dir/all] Error 2
make: *** [all] Error 2
And here is the CMakeLists.txt in my build folder:
SET(WT_PROJECT_SOURCE
wtHello.cpp
)
SET(WT_PROJECT_TARGET wtHello.wt)
ADD_EXECUTABLE(${WT_PROJECT_TARGET} ${WT_PROJECT_SOURCE})
TARGET_LINK_LIBRARIES(${WT_PROJECT_TARGET} ${WT_CONNECTOR} wt)
INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES(/usr/local/include/Wt)
I cant see what I'm doing wrong. Does anything stand out as incorrect to anyone?
Also, does anyone know of a good beginner's CMake tutorial?

You probably installed wt in /usr/local; add the following statement:
LINK_DIRECTORIES(/usr/local/lib)
Your INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES statement should probably point to /usr/local/include. We generally recommend to include the Wt directory in the #include statement:
#include <Wt/WApplication>
If you run make with VERBOSE=1, you will see all commands that cmake generated, which is easier to identify the source of the problem:
make VERBOSE=1
