FindLibLZMA

Finds the liblzma, a data compression library that implements the LZMA (Lempel-Ziv-Markov chain algorithm):

find_package(LibLZMA [<version>] [...])

Imported Targets

This module provides the following Imported Targets:

LibLZMA::LibLZMA

Added in version 3.14.

Target encapsulating the liblzma library usage requirements, available only if liblzma is found.

Result Variables

This module defines the following variables:

LibLZMA_FOUND

Added in version 3.3.

Boolean indicating whether (the requested version of) liblzma was found.

LibLZMA_VERSION

Added in version 4.2.

The version of liblzma found (available as a string, for example, 5.0.3).

LIBLZMA_INCLUDE_DIRS

Include directories containing headers needed to use liblzma.

LIBLZMA_LIBRARIES

Libraries needed to link against to use liblzma.

Cache Variables

The following cache variables may also be set:

LIBLZMA_HAS_AUTO_DECODER

Boolean sanity check result indicating whether the lzma_auto_decoder() function (automatic decoder functionality) is found in liblzma (required).

LIBLZMA_HAS_EASY_ENCODER

Boolean sanity check result indicating whether the lzma_easy_encoder() function (basic encoder API) is found in liblzma (required).

LIBLZMA_HAS_LZMA_PRESET

Boolean sanity check result indicating whether the lzma_lzma_preset() function (preset compression configuration) is found in liblzma (required).

Deprecated Variables

The following variables are provided for backward compatibility:
