FindKDE3

Finds KDE 3 include directories, libraries, and KDE-specific preprocessor tools:

find_package(KDE3 [...])

This module provides usage requirements for building KDE 3 software and defines several helper commands to simplify working with KDE 3 in CMake.

Result Variables

This module defines the following variables:

KDE3_FOUND

Boolean indicating whether KDE 3 was found.

KDE3_DEFINITIONS

Compiler definitions required for compiling KDE 3 software.

KDE3_INCLUDE_DIRS

The KDE and the Qt include directories, for use with the target_include_directories() command.

KDE3_LIB_DIR

The directory containing the installed KDE 3 libraries, for use with the target_link_directories() command.

QT_AND_KDECORE_LIBS

A list containing both the Qt and the kdecore library, typically used together when linking KDE 3.

Cache Variables

The following cache variables may also be set:

KDE3_INCLUDE_DIR

The directory containing KDE 3 header files.

KDE3_DCOPIDL_EXECUTABLE

The path to the dcopidl executable.

KDE3_DCOPIDL2CPP_EXECUTABLE

The path to the dcopidl2cpp executable.

KDE3_KCFGC_EXECUTABLE

The path to the kconfig_compiler executable.

Hints

This module accepts the following variables:

KDE3_BUILD_TESTS

Provided as a user adjustable option. Set this variable to boolean true to build KDE 3 testcases.

Commands

This module provides the following commands to work with KDE 3 in CMake:

kde3_automoc

Enables automatic processing with moc for the given source files:

kde3_automoc(<sources>...)

Call this command to enable automatic moc file handling. For example, if a source file (e.g., foo.cpp) contains include "foo.moc", a moc file for the corresponding header (foo.h) will be generated automatically. To skip processing for a specific source file, set the SKIP_AUTOMOC source file property.

kde3_add_moc_files

Processes header files with moc:

kde3_add_moc_files(<variable> <headers>...)

If not using kde3_automoc(), this command can be used to generate moc files for one or more <headers> files. The generated files are named <filename>.moc.cpp and the resulting list of these generated source files is stored in the variable named <variable> for use in project targets.

kde3_add_dcop_skels

Generates KIDL and DCOP skeletons:

kde3_add_dcop_skels(<variable> <dcop-headers>...)

This command generates .kidl and DCOP skeleton source files from the given DCOP header files. The resulting list of generated source files is stored in the variable named <variable> for use in project targets.

kde3_add_dcop_stubs

Generates DCOP stubs:

kde3_add_dcop_stubs(<variable> <headers>...)

Use this command to generate DCOP stubs from one or more given header files. The resulting list of generated source files is stored in the variable named <variable> for use in project targets.

kde3_add_ui_files

Adds Qt designer UI files:

kde3_add_ui_files(<variable> <ui-files>...)

This command creates the implementation files from the given Qt designer .ui files. The resulting list of generated files is stored in the variable named <variable> for use in project targets.

kde3_add_kcfg_files

Adds KDE kconfig compiler files:

kde3_add_kcfg_files(<variable> <kcfgc-files>...)

Use this command to add KDE kconfig compiler files (.kcfgc) to the application/library. The resulting list of generated source files is stored in the variable named <variable> for use in project targets.

kde3_install_libtool_file

Creates and installs a libtool file:

kde3_install_libtool_file(<target>)

This command creates and installs a basic libtool file for the given target <target>.

kde3_add_executable

Adds KDE executable:

kde3_add_executable(<name> <sources>...)

This command is functionally identical to the built-in add_executable() command. It was originally intended to support additional features in future versions of this module.

kde3_add_kpart

Creates a KDE plugin:

kde3_add_kpart(<name> [WITH_PREFIX] <sources>...)

This command creates a KDE plugin (KPart, kioslave, etc.) from one or more source files <sources>. It also creates and installs an appropriate libtool .la file.

If the WITH_PREFIX option is given, the resulting plugin name will be prefixed with lib. Otherwise, no prefix is added.

kde3_add_kdeinit_executable

Creates a KDE application as a module loadable via kdeinit:

kde3_add_kdeinit_executable(<name> <sources>...)

This command creates a library named kdeinit_<name> from one or more source files <sources>. It also builds a small executable linked against this library.
