Cmake Error during gtest compilation - gtest/internal/gtest-type-util.h:732:25: error: expected type-specifier


I am facing an error while I am trying to build my project using cmake.
I manually downloaded and install gtest on my pc (i.e. gtest header files are available in /usr/include) and libs such as gtest, gtest_main in /usr/lib)

Below is the code of my projects main function. (lte_softmodem_test.cpp)

#include <gtest/gtest.h>
#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

TEST(sample, sample2){

}


int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
    cout << "This is test" << endl;
    testing::InitGoogleTest(&argc, argv);
    return RUN_ALL_TESTS();
 return 0;
}

When I compiled this file separately using the below command, it is working!!

g++ eNB_scheduler_test.cpp -L /usr/lib/ -lgtest -lgtest_main -pthread -std=c++11

But, when I tried to include this in my projects CMake file, it is showing me an error.

CMake file: (CMake file is a bit large, so I have just included few lines where I am trying to compile this file)

# lte-softmodem is both eNB and UE implementation

Edit:

I have edited the question with the error logs, and MAKE output while compiling the file. Thanks in advance for spending your time.


Solution

  • This is how I personally include Google Test in a clean way:

        # To prevent overriding the parent project's compiler/linker settings on Windows.
        if(WIN32)
            set(gtest_force_shared_crt ON CACHE BOOL "" FORCE)
        endif()
    
        FetchContent_Declare(
                googletest
                GIT_REPOSITORY https://github.com/google/googletest.git
                GIT_TAG        master
                SOURCE_DIR        "${GOOGLETEST_DOWNLOAD_DIR}/src" # choose preferred directory
                BINARY_DIR        "${GOOGLETEST_DOWNLOAD_DIR}/bin"
        )
    
        FetchContent_MakeAvailable(googletest)
       #gtest and gtest-main will be available here
    

    You can also use the FindGTest.cmake module with the find_package function make sure to define the environment variable GTEST_ROOT. If these methods would work while your method does not, then it could be your linker settings through cmake(check for syntax errors).
