namespace Eigen { /** \page TopicCMakeGuide Using %Eigen in CMake Projects %Eigen provides native CMake support which allows the library to be easily used in CMake projects. \note %CMake 3.0 (or later) is required to enable this functionality. %Eigen exports a CMake target called `Eigen3::Eigen` which can be imported using the `find_package` CMake command and used by calling `target_link_libraries` as in the following example: \code{.cmake} cmake_minimum_required (VERSION 3.0) project (myproject) find_package (Eigen3 3.3 REQUIRED NO_MODULE) add_executable (example example.cpp) target_link_libraries (example Eigen3::Eigen) \endcode The above code snippet must be placed in a file called `CMakeLists.txt` alongside `example.cpp`. After running \code{.sh} $ cmake path-to-example-directory \endcode CMake will produce project files that generate an executable called `example` which requires at least version 3.3 of %Eigen. Here, `path-to-example-directory` is the path to the directory that contains both `CMakeLists.txt` and `example.cpp`. Do not forget to set the \c CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH variable if Eigen is not installed in a default location or if you want to pick a specific version. For instance: \code{.sh} $ cmake path-to-example-directory -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=$HOME/mypackages \endcode An alternative is to set the \c Eigen3_DIR cmake's variable to the respective path containing the \c Eigen3*.cmake files. For instance: \code{.sh} $ cmake path-to-example-directory -DEigen3_DIR=$HOME/mypackages/share/eigen3/cmake/ \endcode If the `REQUIRED` option is omitted when locating %Eigen using `find_package`, one can check whether the package was found as follows: \code{.cmake} find_package (Eigen3 3.3 NO_MODULE) if (TARGET Eigen3::Eigen) # Use the imported target endif (TARGET Eigen3::Eigen) \endcode */ }
