How to build?

[kkstun]

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:17 (target_link_libraries):
Cannot specify link libraries for target "BLEScout" which is not built by
this project.

Have you modified the CmakeLists.txt? Mine is just 10 lines, so not sure about line 17.

I confess, I need to add some build instructions. Will do that along with the upcoming new release, which will fix some issues and should be available on all three platforms then.

You need to create a folder lib in the blescout root and inside that folder you have to clone the nappgui_src repo and SimpleBLE repo. I'm going to add those as recursive git submodules with the next release.

Then build NAppGUI:

// Windows
mkdir build & cd build
cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=C:/nappgui
cmake --build . --config Debug

// macOS
mkdir build ; cd build
cmake .. -G Xcode -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local/nappgui
cmake --build . --config Debug

// Linux
mkdir build ; cd build
cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local/nappgui
cmake --build .

And finally build blescout:

cmake --build build --config Release

[kkstun]

let me see.
`cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.5)
project(BLE-Scout)

find_package(nappgui REQUIRED)

SET(NAPPGUI_ROOT_PATH,"E:/works_napp/nappgui")

include("${NAPPGUI_ROOT_PATH}/prj/NAppCompilers.cmake")
nap_config_compiler()

Remove WIN32 in Linux and macOS

add_executable(BLEScout WIN32 blescout.c util.c logwin.c ble.c connect.c help.c)
target_link_libraries(BLEScout ${NAPPGUI_LIBRARIES})

simpleble

add_subdirectory(simpleble/simpleble ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/simpleble)
target_link_libraries(BLEScout simpleble::simpleble-c)`

I am new Programmer.

Okay, that's a bit different to what I used recently. I need a moment to update all this and add build information into the repo, my bad.

As a new programmer, the NAppGUI documentation is a great source of advice not just in particular for NAppGUI but also in general. Great reading from the author.

[kkstun]

OK,thanks. I wait your new build .

[eriklins]

I would leave that issue open and close when build information have been added.
