Hello.
I am new to CMake. I want to use CMake to build mongoose web lib into my project.
CMakeLists.txt and Web.cpp are listed below. The dir structure : CMakeLists.txt and Web.ccp are in root dir. Rest is where Cmake puts it. I use GCC kit to compile as per instruction from mongoose.
- I cannot get this to build : Web.cpp:1:10: fatal error: mongoose.h: No such file or directory
Thank you for your help.
CMakeLists.txt

Web.cpp
#include "mongoose.h"
// Connection event handler function
static void fn(struct mg_connection *c, int ev, void *ev_data) {
if (ev == MG_EV_HTTP_MSG) { // New HTTP request received
struct mg_http_message *hm = (struct mg_http_message *) ev_data; // Parsed HTTP request
if (mg_match(hm->uri, mg_str("/api/hello"), NULL)) { // REST API call?
mg_http_reply(c, 200, "", "{%m:%d}\n", MG_ESC("status"), 1); // Yes. Respond JSON
} else {
struct mg_http_serve_opts opts = {.root_dir = "."}; // For all other URLs,
mg_http_serve_dir(c, hm, &opts); // Serve static files
}
}
}
int main() {
struct mg_mgr mgr; // Mongoose event manager. Holds all connections
mg_mgr_init(&mgr); // Initialise event manager
mg_http_listen(&mgr, "http://0.0.0.0:8000", fn, NULL); // Setup listener
for (;;) {
mg_mgr_poll(&mgr, 1000); // Infinite event loop
}
return 0;
}

mongoose is not built using CMake. That means that you have to create the Mongoose CMake target yourself with the source files and include directories.
Here’s a basic example that does that:
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.31)
project(MongWeb VERSION 0.1 LANGUAGES C CXX)
include(FetchContent)
FetchContent_Declare(Mongoose GIT_REPOSITORY
https://github.com/cesanta/mongoose.git GIT_TAG 7.16)
FetchContent_MakeAvailable(Mongoose)
add_library(MongooseStatic STATIC
${mongoose_SOURCE_DIR}/mongoose.c)
target_include_directories(MongooseStatic PUBLIC
${mongoose_SOURCE_DIR})
add_executable(${PROJECT_NAME} Web.cpp)
target_link_libraries(${PROJECT_NAME} PRIVATE MongooseStatic)

Ok, I might have bitten off a little more than I can chew here.
I used your example and that gave some problems that I was able to solve. The new problem is the worlds longest compile error.
I think the mongoose.h header file is not seen correctly. I tried to fix this by adding
set_target_properties(MongooseStatic PROPERTIES PUBLIC_HEADER ${mongoose_SOURCE_DIR}/mongoose.h)
But this did nothing.
Any Ideas?

The example I gave you compiled right away on my machine with your unchanged Web.cpp.
Which OS/Compiler are you using? Would you perhaps explain exactly what the error is when you’ve used that example as-is?
Also you can add message(${mongoose_SOURCE_DIR}) to log what it expands to and if it indeed shows the correct path for Mongoose.

P.S. mingw is a problematic compiler that many libraries are not supporting.
If you can, please use MSVC or Clang to build your code, it will prevent many boring issues.

Hi Eyal.
Thanks for your help, highly appreciated.
I have compiled with Windows SDK. It works with the attached CMakeLists.txt
I cannot get it to compile with GCC14.2.0 x86-w64-mingw32(ucrt64)Mongoose :: Tutorials :: Tools
It looks like the build process falls apart at linking (see error attached in previous post)
cheers, Bernard.
