libhermesvm-config.h cannot be found when compiling.

[Please-just-dont]

So when I do shermes ./my_javascript_source.js I get the error with the inclue:

#include "libhermesvm-config.h"

I can step through the code and see what is happening. The Javascript is compiled into C. A temporary C file is created called my_javascript_source.js-3289d8.c which looks like:

#include "hermes/VM/static_h.h"
#include <stdlib.h>

/* REST OF C CODE */

And I think that hermes/VM/static_h.h being included is the problem, or a transitively included file.

Here is the full error:

In file included from /media/moe/14E610DDE610C142/MyProgrammingFiles/Deps/hermes-static_h/include/hermes/VM/sh_legacy_value.h:113,

11 | #include "libhermesvm-config.h"

I built my project by simply doing add_subdirectory on the main respository folder, and generally things are working OK (the include paths seems to have been taken care of).

I am on latest version of Linux Mint.

This is probably a configuration issue. Can you please share the contents of config.h, which must be somewhere under tools/shermes in your build directory, as well as the full path to lib/config/libhermesvm-config.h in your build directory.

[Please-just-dont]

@tmikov OK, it must be that this project can only be built if the very first CMakeLists.txt parsed by CMake is the original repository folder itself (ie., no add_subfolder or other methods other than having the repository folder as the first CMakeLists.txt)

I checked for those files you mentioned, they don't exist when I used add_subdirectory.

Edit: Sorry, not not able to be built. I can build it, but shermes doesn't work for the reason I mentioned in my first post.

They exist. You wouldn't be able to build the project at all without them.
