Hi! I've cloned OpenMesh git repo to my local. created a build directory under it. there I called following CMake command for release mode without applications)
``` cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DBUILD_APPS=OFF ```
I'm getting following errors:
``` CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:44 (include): include could not find requested file:
VCICommon
CMake Error at src/OpenMesh/Core/CMakeLists.txt:1 (include): include could not find requested file:
VCICommon
CMake Error at src/OpenMesh/Core/CMakeLists.txt:145 (vci_add_library): Unknown CMake command "vci_add_library". ```
Looks like it needs `vci_add_library` Cmake function that is defined in `VCICommon`. But I don't see VCICommon anywhere in the repo. From https://gitlab.vci.rwth-aachen.de:9000/search?search=VCICommon&nav_sourc... as you can see, VCICommon is only included in the repo, not defined anywhere.
Can you please tell me what I am doing wrong. Thanks!
Hi,
You have to clone with - - recursive.

Thank you! That worked! Leaving my notes below for posterity:
The reason why I've missed recursive call was because I added the library to my project using git submodules via:
``` git submodule add https://gitlab.vci.rwth-aachen.de:9000/OpenMesh/OpenMesh.git ```
After that I should have called the following git command
``` git submodule update --init --recursive ```
which brings the `cmake-library` dependency that has the missing CMake functions! Then I was able to prepare the build setup via
``` cmake .. -DBUILD_APPS=OFF ````
Then OpenMesh can be compiled via
``` cmake --build . ```
for a debug build, which generates `OpenMeshCored.lib` and `OpenMeshToolsd.lib`
or via
``` cmake --build . --config Release ```
for a release build, which generates `OpenMeshCore.lib` and `OpenMeshTools.lib`. (These are significantly smaller).
