To be honest, you really should contact the original developers for
help with dependencies and compiling.  Not only are they the experts
with their own programs, but they also have an interest in having
users being able to compile their programs.

Likewise, if there is a bug in their program or even their
instructions, I'm sure they would like to know (and hopefully update
accordingly).  This even includes "bugs" in their CMakeList.txt ...

(If developers don't have such an interest, then I don't know why
bother sharing code on GitHub.  So, my *guess* is that they should be
helpful if you contact them...but I could be wrong!)

Yes, many projects do not include their dependencies and require you

Python sipconfig module installed.

It looks like the instructions are there in the README. I tried
building on my system but I'm missing some dependencies (e.g. at some
point it finds my Python 3 installation and tries to run some
code but
fails due to a missing sipconfig module, which I am not familiar
with).

Generally, to build a project that uses CMake, create an empty
directory for the build and open a terminal in it, then run CMake
with
the path to the directory containing CMakeLists.txt and optionally
specify the generator to use if the default is not the one you want.
Then, if it completes without errors, you can use "cmake --build
." to
build it and "cmake --build . --target install" to install it,
even if
you used an IDE generator.

As for the project dependencies, you are own your own to get those.

Re: [CMake] Compiling binaries with cmake -- help

[Crest Christopher]

Hi, here  is the github URL; I hope it 
will help, to help me understand how to compile and use should I come 
across a cMaker compiler installation in the future.

Hello,
how about to share the github URL,
which file you have downloaded or project you want to compile?
I think this would make it much easier for readers to help.
Best regards,
Martin

Are you trying to use an existing CMakeLists.txt, or are you trying to
create your own? CMake doesn't just work on source files alone.

Hi, I'm hoping I can get some help on how to compile a repository from 
github which is local on my machine with a series of folders which 
contain CPP extension files.


I have chosen the folders for which most likely contain the correct 
files to compile the binaries followed by the folder to which to build 
the binaries then I have chosen generate but I'm getting an error that 
the project files are invalid ?
