Hi everyone,
I’m facing something strange and I can’t figure out if it’s actually a bug or a misunderstanding of the system.
I use the preset system to manage the different OS with toolchain.
Here is an extract of my presets:
"version": 3,
"cmakeMinimumRequired": {
"major": 3,
"minor": 24,
"patch": 0
},
"configurePresets": [
{
"name": "release",
"hidden": true,
"generator": "Ninja",
"binaryDir": "${sourceDir}/.build/${presetName}",
"cacheVariables": {
"CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE": "Release",
"CMAKE_MODULE_PATH": "${sourceDir}/cmake/modules"
}
},
{
"name": "debug",
"hidden": true,
"generator": "Ninja",
"inherits": ["release"],
"cacheVariables": {
"CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE": "Debug",
"CMAKE_VERBOSE_MAKEFILE": "ON"
}
},
{
"name": "release-macOS",
"description": "",
"inherits": ["release"],
"toolchainFile": "${sourceDir}/cmake/toolchains/macOS.cmake",
"cacheVariables": {
"CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH": "$env{TVP_PUBLIBS}/_install/macOS/release/lib/cmake"
},
"condition": {
"type": "equals",
"lhs": "${hostSystemName}",
"rhs": "Darwin"
}
},
{
"name": "debug-macOS",
"description": "",
"inherits": ["debug", "release-macOS"],
"cacheVariables": {
"CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH": "$env{TVP_PUBLIBS}/_install/macOS/debug/lib/cmake"
}
},
{
"name": "release-iOS",
"description": "",
"inherits": ["release"],
"generator": "Xcode",
"toolchainFile": "${sourceDir}/cmake/toolchains/iOS.cmake",
"cacheVariables": {
"CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH": "$env{TVP_PUBLIBS}/_install/iOS/release/lib/cmake"
},
"condition": {
"type": "equals",
"lhs": "${hostSystemName}",
"rhs": "Darwin"
}
},
{
"name": "debug-iOS",
"description": "",
"inherits": ["debug", "release-iOS"],
"generator": "Xcode",
"cacheVariables": {
"CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH": "$env{TVP_PUBLIBS}/_install/iOS/debug/lib/cmake"
}
}
]
}
and here are the toolchains:
- macOS.cmake:
set(XXX_PLATFORM "macOS") set(XXX_PLATFORM_MACOS ON) - iOS.cmake:
set(CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME iOS) set(CMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES) set(CMAKE_OSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET) set(XXX_PLATFORM "iOS") set(XXX_PLATFORM_IOS ON)
When I configure my project with the debug-macOS presets for example, everything works fine:
❯ cmake --preset=debug-macOS --fresh
Preset CMake variables:
CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE="Debug"

But when I configure my project for iOS then it does not find the libraries even though they are present:
❯ cmake --preset=debug-iOS --fresh

CMake Error at cmake/utilities/ProjectDependencies.cmake:13 (find_package):
By not providing "Findfmt.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this project has
asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by "fmt", but
CMake did not find one.
Could not find a package configuration file provided by "fmt" with any of
the following names:
fmtConfig.cmake
fmt-config.cmake
Add the installation prefix of "fmt" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set "fmt_DIR"
to a directory containing one of the above files. If "fmt" provides a
separate development package or SDK, be sure it has been installed.
Call Stack (most recent call first):

-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!
See also "/Users/naubry/xxx/NextVersion/yyy/.build/debug-iOS/CMakeFiles/CMakeOutput.log".
What is quite strange is that if I do not set the variable set(CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME iOS) with iOS but with nothing like this set(CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME) then in this case no more worries but the configuration will not be good logically, so it is a problem …
