rocksdb build failed in Clion at MacOS

My environment:

macOS 10.14
Clion 2018.1.2
gcc-8.2

I want to use Clion to try the rocksdb. I add a new CMakeLists.txt file at examples directory.

CMakeLists.txt:

add_subdirectory(examples)

examples/CMakeLists.txt:

add_executable(s_test simple_example.cc)
target_link_libraries(s_test ${LIBS})

But when I build the s_test executable, I get the error as follows.

Linking CXX shared library librocksdb.dylib
Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64:

And I already installed the gflags previously.

ls /usr/local/lib | grep gflags

libgflags.2.2.1.dylib
libgflags.2.2.dylib
libgflags.dylib
libgflags_nothreads.2.2.1.dylib
libgflags_nothreads.2.2.dylib
libgflags_nothreads.dylib

How to solve it? Thank you!

Solution

  • You will need to pull down the gflags package from git hub. I also use CLION.

    So, this is the procedure I followed to pull down rocksdb and gflags:

    ~> cd CLionProjects
~/CLionProjects> git clone [email protected]:facebook/rocksdb.git
~/CLionProjects> cd rocksdb
~/CLionProjects/rocksdb> git clone [email protected]:gflags/gflags.git

    I then created gflagss.cmake at

    ~/CLionProjects/rocksdb/cmake/modules

    with the following content:

    # - Find GFLAGS

set(GFLAGS_ROOT_DIR ./gflags/cmake-build-debug)
find_path(GFLAGS_INCLUDE_DIR
  NAMES bzlib.h
  HINTS ${GFLAGS_ROOT_DIR}/include)

find_library(GFLAGS_LIBRARIES
  NAMES gflags
  HINTS ${GFLAGS_ROOT_DIR}/lib)

include(FindPackageHandleStandardArgs)
find_package_handle_standard_args(bzip2 DEFAULT_MSG BZIP2_LIBRARIES BZIP2_INCLUDE_DIR)

mark_as_advanced(
  GFLAGS_LIBRARIES
  GFLAGS_INCLUDE_DIR)

    I then opened the gflags folder in CLion and built glfags.

    I then opened a separate CLion window/folder for rocksdb and built that.
