Emscripten - cmake - pass emscripten options in CMakeList file

Question

How to use emcmake cmake and pass emscripten command-line options?

Pretty new to c++ / CMake, but can\'t find anything helpful on google. So maybe the q

Answer 1

Oke I figured out what I was doing wrong..

As a noob to Emscripten / CMake, I wasn't realising that emcmake does not automatically use the emscripten base cmake file (what I do expect if I run an Special emscripten emcmake command....)

Anyway, turns out I don't need emcmake and can just call cmake from the ternimal like this ->

cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -G \"Unix Makefiles\" -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=/emscripten/emscripten/incoming/cmake/Modules/Platform/Emscripten.cmake . && make

And here is my final CMakeList.txt

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.7)
project(Engine)

set(CMAKE_RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/dist)
SET(CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE_INIT "Release")
set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD 11)

if (${CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME} MATCHES "Emscripten")
    set(CMAKE_C_COMPILER "emcc")
endif ()

set(CMAKE_MODULE_PATH ${CMAKE_MODULE_PATH} "${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/cmake")
set(SOURCE_FILES main.cpp src/Background.cpp src/Background.h src/Camera.cpp src/Chart.cpp src/Chart.h src/logger.cpp src/Engine.cpp src/Engine.h src/GL.cpp src/GL.h src/Instrument.cpp src/Instrument.h src/Text.cpp src/Text.h)

find_package(OPENGL REQUIRED)

if (NOT ${CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME} MATCHES "Emscripten")
    find_package(GLEW REQUIRED)
    find_package(glfw3 REQUIRED)
    find_package(assimp REQUIRED)
    find_package(freetype REQUIRED)
endif ()

include_directories(
        /emscripten/
        /emscripten/emscripten/incoming/system/include
        /opt/X11/include/freetype2
        /usr/local/Cellar/freetype/2.8/include/freetype2
        ${FREETYPE_INCLUDE_DIRS}
        ${OPENGL_INCLUDE_DIR}
)

if (NOT ${CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME} MATCHES "Emscripten")
    include_directories(${GLEW_INCLUDE_DIR})
endif ()

add_executable(Engine ${SOURCE_FILES} extern/stb_image.cpp src/Camera.h src/Cubes.cpp src/Chart.cpp)

target_link_libraries(Engine ${OPENGL_gl_LIBRARY})

if (${CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME} MATCHES "Emscripten")
    set_target_properties(Engine PROPERTIES LINK_FLAGS "-o dist/engine.js -s USE_FREETYPE=1 -s DISABLE_EXCEPTION_CATCHING=0 -s DEMANGLE_SUPPORT=1 -s SAFE_HEAP=1 --bind -s WASM=1 -O2 -s LEGACY_GL_EMULATION=0  -s GL_UNSAFE_OPTS=0 --pre-js pre-module.js --post-js post-module.js -s ASSERTIONS=1 -s GL_ASSERTIONS=1 -s INVOKE_RUN=0  -std=c++11 -s USE_WEBGL2=1 -s FULL_ES3=1 -s USE_GLFW=3 -s OFFSCREENCANVAS_SUPPORT=1 --preload-file textures --preload-file shaders --preload-file fonts")
