Hi Matt,
when you call the MACRO_CREATE_MITK_CTK_PLUGIN() in your plug-in's
CMakeLists.txt file, the value of ${PROJECT_NAME} will be used as the
target name. You can use this variable to link your plug-in to other
libs outside the CTK/MITK build-system (yes, this should be documented
somewhere...).
For example,
#-------------------------------------------------------------------
PROJECT(org_my_plugin)
FIND_PACKAGE(ThirdPartyLib REQUIRED)
INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES(${ThirdPartyLib_INCLUDE_DIRS})
MACRO_CREATE_MITK_CTK_PLUGIN(...)
TARGET_LINK_LIBRARIES(${PROJECT_NAME} ${ThirdPartyLib_LIBRARIES})
#-------------------------------------------------------------------
The only downside is that the include dirs are not inherited, meaning
that if the above plug-in includes header files from ThirdPartyLib in
its "public API headers" and if there is a dependency of another plug-in
to it, this plug-in needs to have the ${ThirdPartyLib_INCLUDE_DIRS} dirs
set manually. If you need this kind of build system feature, you could
look into the MITK/CMake/PackageDepends folder, which provides "fake
MITK module configs" for external libs.
Best,
Sascha
