I am trying to build rabbitmq-c as a static library so I can use in AWS lambda.
I am able to build the examples following the documentation and those are working fine.
But now I am trying to use in my own project. Below are the steps I took:
Below is my CMakeLists.txt
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.1)
set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD 11)
set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD_REQUIRED ON)
set(CMAKE_CXX_EXTENSIONS OFF)
set(CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE "Release")
project(executable LANGUAGES CXX)
SET(CMAKE_FIND_LIBRARY_SUFFIXES ".a")
SET(BUILD_SHARED_LIBS OFF)
set(RABBITMQ_TARGET "<absolute_path_to_third_party_dir>/third_party/rabbitmq-c/")
add_definitions(-DAMQP_STATIC)
add_subdirectory(${RABBITMQ_TARGET})
include_directories(${LIBRABBITMQ_INCLUDE_DIRS})
add_executable(${PROJECT_NAME} execute_code.cpp)
target_link_libraries(executable PRIVATE ${RMQ_LIBRARY_TARGET})
cmake .. -DBUILD_EXAMPLES=OFF -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF
(which works without any issue).fatal error: amqp.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
CMakeFiles/executable.dir/build.make:62: recipe for target 'CMakeFiles/executable.dir/execute_code.cpp.o' failed
make[2]: *** [CMakeFiles/executable.dir/execute_code.cpp.o] Error 1
CMakeFiles/Makefile2:169: recipe for target 'CMakeFiles/executable.dir/all' failed
make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/executable.dir/all] Error 2
Makefile:129: recipe for target 'all' failed
make: *** [all] Error 2
Here is my execute_code.cpp (I am removing unnecessary code just for here)
#include<iostream>
#include <amqp.h>
#include <amqp_tcp_socket.h>
using namespace std;
int main(int argc, char** argv) {
char const *hostname;
int port, status;
char const *exchange;
char const *bindingkey;
amqp_socket_t *socket = NULL;
amqp_connection_state_t conn;
amqp_bytes_t queuename;
conn = amqp_new_connection();
socket = amqp_tcp_socket_new(conn);
return 0;
}
when I am not using
#include <amqp.h>
#include <amqp_tcp_socket.h>
I am able to build rabbitmq-static, below is the make response

It is able to generate librabbitmq.a, so it is able to build statically.
I tried with https://github.com/alanxz/rabbitmq-c/releases/tag/v0.10.0 which is the latest stable version. But still the same error.
I tried searching regarding the issue, but couldn't find anything helpful.
I am pretty much newbie to cmake, Can you please tell me what I am doing wrong or am I missing something?
The rabbitmq-c
repository sets the LIBRABBITMQ_INCLUDE_DIRS
variable in the rabbitmq-c/librabbitmq
sub-directory, then also sets it using PARENT_SCOPE
so it is also available in the top-level rabbitmq-c
directory. See that code here:
set(LIBRABBITMQ_INCLUDE_DIRS ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR} ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR} ${SOCKET_IMPL} ${MSINTTYPES_INCLUDE} ) include_directories(${LIBRABBITMQ_INCLUDE_DIRS}) set(LIBRABBITMQ_INCLUDE_DIRS ${LIBRABBITMQ_INCLUDE_DIRS} PARENT_SCOPE)
However, when you include the rabbitmq-c
repo in your project via add_subdirectory
, it introduces an additional scope, and the LIBRABBITMQ_INCLUDE_DIRS
variable is not available in this parent-parent scope. You will have to either:
rabbitmq-c
repository (although this is not scalable, and probably not what you want to do). rabbitmq-c
CMake file to further extend the scope of this variable.rabbitmq-c
on your machine, and use a CMake Find Module
or a CMake configuration file (e.g. rabbitmq-c-config.cmake
)
furnished by rabbitmq-c
to locate the installed software.
