I am trying to cross-compile the aws-sdk-cpp and I am getting the following error just the very first time I run CMAKE. If I run it a second time it compiles and links and I have tested the application and I can indeed use the aws-sdk-cpp functionality. I have searched and searched for days and tried all kinds of things:
I print the OPENSSL_ROOT_DIR variable right before the call to
find_package(OpenSSL REQUIRED)
and it prints the right PATH.
I have also set the variable OPENSSL_USE_STATIC_LIBS to TRUE without any difference.
I honestly don't understand what is going on since if I run it a second time it builds and links just fine.

Could NOT find OpenSSL, try to set the path to OpenSSL root folder in the
system variable OPENSSL_ROOT_DIR (missing: OPENSSL_CRYPTO_LIBRARY
OPENSSL_INCLUDE_DIR) (found version "1.1.1n")

Ok so I have figured what was going on.
the issue was that I was setting the values for
OPENSSL_INCLUDE_DIR
OPENSSL_CRYPTO_LIBRARY
OPENSSL_SSL_LIBRARY
Once I deleted them it worked.
