Guys, I'm sorry, I know this may be second hand to some, and I'm trying to read up on this stuff, but for some reason it's not clicking very easily for me. (yes, I came from a Microsoft Visual Studio world)
Here is the path to my QT project where I'm trying to use CMake. This directory has one source code file. main.cpp
~/dev/qt_workspace/InitGStreamer$
My QT build folder is here
~/dev/qt_workspace/InitGStreamer/build-InitGStreamer-Desktop_Qt_5_7_0_GCC_64bit-Default$
Then I created a sub directory structure under it. I got this structure from reading the CMake docs.
https://cmake.org/Wiki/CMake:How_To_Find_Libraries
~/dev/qt_workspace/InitGStreamer/cmake/Modules$
In in there is a file called FindGStreamer.cmake which I found here
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/WebKit/webkit/master/Source/cmake/FindGStreamer.cmake
Here is what I have done in my cmake file.
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8)
project(InitGStreamer)
add_executable(${PROJECT_NAME} main.cpp )
set(CMAKE_MODULE_PATH ${CMAKE_MODULE_PATH} "${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/cmake/Modules/")
find_package(gstreamer-app REQUIRED)
However, I'm getting the following output error from CMake.
Running "/usr/bin/cmake /home/rick/dev/qt_workspace/InitGStreamer '-GCodeBlocks - Unix Makefiles' -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER:STRING=/usr/bin/g++ -DQT_QMAKE_EXECUTABLE:STRING=/home/rick/DevApps/Qt/5.7/gcc_64/bin/qmake" in /home/rick/dev/qt_workspace
/InitGStreamer/build-InitGStreamer-Desktop_Qt_5_7_0_GCC_64bit-Default.
-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!
See also "/home/rick/dev/qt_workspace/InitGStreamer/build-InitGStreamer-Desktop_Qt_5_7_0_GCC_64bit-Default/CMakeFiles/CMakeOutput.log".
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:5 (find_package):
By not providing "Findgstreamer-app.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this
project has asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by
"gstreamer-app", but CMake did not find one.
Could not find a package configuration file provided by "gstreamer-app"
with any of the following names:
gstreamer-appConfig.cmake
gstreamer-app-config.cmake
Add the installation prefix of "gstreamer-app" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set
"gstreamer-app_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above files. If
"gstreamer-app" provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it
has been installed.
*** cmake process exited with exit code 1.
THEN I changed my CMake to this.
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8)
project(InitGStreamer)
add_executable(${PROJECT_NAME} main.cpp )
include("${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/cmake/Modules/FindGStreamer.cmake")
set(CMAKE_MODULE_PATH ${CMAKE_MODULE_PATH} "${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/cmake/Modules/")
#find_package(gstreamer-app REQUIRED)
find_package(PkgConfig)
#aux_source_directory(. SRC_LIST)
#add_executable(${PROJECT_NAME} ${SRC_LIST})
include_directories( ${GSTREAMER_INCLUDE_DIR})
add_definitions(${GSTREAMER_DEFINITIONS})
#target_link_libraries(MPEG4GStreamer ${GSTREAMER_LIBRARIES})
This seemed to do something... I didn't get any errors, but when I went back to my source code file in QT Creator, it still could not find #include <gst/gst.h>.
Am I wrong to assume that QT Creator will resolve the where this header is automatically based on the cmake setup I have?

I’m new to both GStreamer and CMake. I’m trying to create a cmake
file for an app that I want to use gstreamer in. When I use the
command
find_package( …. ) I’ve tried several different gstreamer package
names. Things like find_package( gstreamer-1.0 ) and others. None
of them worked.
Does anyone know the proper value to use here?
GStreamer implement standard pkg-config metadata. CMake provides the
PkgConfig package to let you interface with that. Here's an exemple:
find_package(PkgConfig)
pkg_check_modules(GST REQUIRED gstreamer-1.0>=1.4
gstreamer-sdp-1.0>=1.4
gstreamer-video-1.0>=1.4
gstreamer-app-1.0>=1.4)
Notice that GStreamer is a collection of libraries. The list will
depend on your application needs. From there you'll have to update few
things. Globally, link_directories with ${GST_LIBRARY_DIRS} (only
needed if you use GStreamer from non-system installation). And per
target:
- target_include_directories with ${GST_INCLUDE_DIRS}
- target_compile_options with ${GST_CFLAGS}
- target_link_libraries with ${GST_LIBRARIES}
You'll also have to choose between private and public exposure
depending if you create an app or library and if you expose GStreamer
through your library or not.
cheers,
Nicolas
