error in cmake

Hi,

It seems that vcpkg failes to parse or understand the vcpkg.json manifest file.
Could you please post the full vcpkg-manifest-install.log?

Alternatively, could you make sure that you use the latest version of vcpkg and that you run it from the operon root folder?

cmake -S . -B build -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=/Users/apdoshi/vcpkg/scripts/buildsystems/vcpkg.cmake`

We are using the official vcpkg guide for packaging: https://vcpkg.io/en/docs/examples/packaging-github-repos.html

Thanks

Thanks. The full manifest install log is just this:

Error: while loading aria-csv:
The port directory (/Users/apdoshi/vcpkg/ports/aria-csv) does not exist
Error: failed to load port from /Users/apdoshi/vcpkg/ports/aria-csv
note: updating vcpkg by rerunning bootstrap-vcpkg may resolve this failure.

I am on the latest vcpkg and reran boostratp-vckpgs.sh, but ports/aria-csv still does not exist unfortunately

That's because aria-csv is not in the official ports, we provide it locally under the operon/ports folder.
Normally vcpkg should read the vcpkg.json manifest file and figure this out.
However, it does seem like vcpkg is more fragile than it looks.

Some things to try:

• setting up the VCPKG_OVERLAY_PORTS env variable as per instructions here
• passing --preset build-windows-vcpkg (or whichever fits your system) to CMake (use cmake --list-presets or have a look at the CMakePresets.json file
• passing -DVCPKG_OVERLAY_PORTS=./ports to CMake

I see. Passing in the -DVCPKG_OVERLAY_PORTS option worked, and it built. Thanks!
