Building glad with CMake
I am working on a 3d engine and I want to add glad repo as a submodule to my project. Cmake is my primary generator but always run into some Python problems while building Glad lib. So I started a separate project test how to build glad using cmake but ran into the same error, My cmake file and its output goes like this,
In CMakeLists.txt
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.25)
project(glad_build VERSION 1.0.0 LANGUAGES C CXX)
include(FetchContent)
FetchContent_Declare(
glad
GIT_REPOSITORY https://github.com/Dav1dde/glad.git
GIT_TAG v2.0.4
GIT_SHALLOW true
)
FetchContent_MakeAvailable(glad)
set(GL_VERSION "4.3")
set(GLAD_LIB "glad_gl_core_43")
glad_add_library(${GLAD_LIB} REPRODUCIBLE API gl:core=${GL_VERSION})
add_executable(${PROJECT_NAME} "Src/Main.cpp")
target_link_libraries(${PROJECT_NAME} PUBLIC glad)

To be honest I'm not a great fan of Python, I don't get code in main.py and init.py. I expect to generate glad.h and glad.c I know I can download these files but when the project build is finished I want to see those files generated along with glad.lib
