I have the following directory structure for my project that utilizes uWebsockets and I am trying to run the example provided by in uWebsockets examples folder. Interestingly, uWebsockets
does not have any CMakeLists.txt
in its root folder as to how to build the examples.
I am able to configure and generate successfully with CMake in Windows. However, I have issues building target uwebsocketsExample1
.
I'd like to be able to use FetchContent
and bring in uWebsockets
and its submodules uSockets
, etc., by external\uWebsockets\CMakeLists.txt
. Could someone help me build EchoServer.cpp?
