Using the CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH doesn't work for me either. Pointing it at
the latest 0.7rc3 installation gives:

CMake Warning at src/amqp.cmake:22 (find_package):
    Could not find a configuration file for package "Proton" that is compatible
    with requested version "0.5".

    The following configuration files were considered but not accepted:

      
/home/gordon/qpid-releases/proton/0.7rc1/installation/lib64/proton.cmake/proton-config.cmake,
 version: 0.7

This is a leftover from a pre 0.7 build and is confusing the detection.

If you remove the install area completely and make install proton again
it should work. I don't think the file proton-config.cmake made it into
a proton release so there should only be a small number of people
affected by this problem.

Let me know if this didn't fix the problem and I will look at it some
more.

I just realised that it is possible my changes to proton went in *after*
rc1. In which case 0.28 will not work with it, as the changes to proton
and qpid need to be in step. As Rafi didn't tag the release candidate I
can't easily tell from source control.

My changes went into proton at r1577978 which was the change after the
version number bump.

If that is correct you will need to use trunk proton until rc2.


What about the pkg-config based build? I thought you said that would
still work? It doesn't seem to.

That may have been talking at cross purposes. I was talking from the
proton end there - ie proton is still exporting the pkgconfig files so
any previous build that used those will still work (so previous qpid
builds that used the pkgconfig files will still work against newer
proton installs).

I have changed the qpid build so that it no longer uses the pkg-config
files, but only the natve cmake config files. This radically simplified
the cmake logic, and made it actually readable, and idiomatic.

Are you saying that 0.28 will only build against proton trunk, not
against 0.5 and 0.6 as it did before? If so that seems an unnecessary
restriction to me.

It is very annoying that the current rc doesn't have the new files and
this was unintentional, hopefully we can get rc2 out soon.

Given that this will be fixed very soon, I think it is a temporary
annoyance and no more. I'm not sure that there is a long term reason to
have qpid build against earlier versions of proton once 0.7 is released.

Is your concern long term or short term?

I don't think it is appropriate at this point to break building trunk against existing working versions of proton or to have a 0.28 beta that can only build against proton trunk, especially for what seems to be essentially a cosmetic change (as good as I'm sure that change is).

At the very least this required informed discussion. Your announcement of this change had the subject 'Additional options to detect Proton and Qpid' and stated:

"Note that the existing pkgconfig files are unchanged, so if you were
using pkg config to detect proton or qpid you won't be affected."

In response to my concerns about changing the approach I was using (pkg-config) you stated:

"Ths pkg config methods are unchanged so there's nothing to report there. I've fixed up the qpid build myself, and so this change has really only added an additional (cross platform) way to detect proton."

That thread began with your request to extend support to 0.7, albeit with a warning that it was not tested, explicitly stating that it would allow 0.5 or later.
