[CMake] Problem with FindXercesC.cmake

[Dorier, Matthieu]

Hi,


I'm using cmake 3.11.4 and the FindXercesC.cmake file shipped with it.


When I call find_package(XercesC REQUIRED) and XercesC is not in a standard location, I have to set XercesC_INCLUDE_DIR to its include directory and XercesC_LIBRARY to the location of the library.


If I set XercesC_LIBRARY to the directory containing the library (not to the fullpath of the library itself), cmake finds XercesC but sets XercesC_LIBRARIES to the folder instead of the library, and the same for the XercesC::XercesC target. It seems I truly have to set XercesC_LIBRARY to the name of the library rather than the path to the folder containing it, which kinds of defies the point of find_package...


I use to rely on a custom FindXercesC.cmake file that was using XercesC_ROOT to figure all this out. Is there any way to do the same here?


Thanks,


Matthieu
