[SOLVED] CMake - Creating a static library

Issue

I have two files in my project called Test4:

Structure.h Structure.c

I want to create a static library that can be loaded by other projects who want to use those files. Here is my CMake file currently:

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.6)
project(Test4)

set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} -std=c++11")

set(SOURCE_FILES Structure.c Structure.h)
add_library(Test4 STATIC ${SOURCE_FILES})

When I build using that CMake file, no static library is generated. Nothing happens. Am I doing something wrong?

I am using the CLion IDE.

Solution

I had same issue. What I missed is the location where build files are created.

CLion makes libraries or exectables under cmake-build-* directory. IfBuild, Execution, Deployment > CMake > Configuration is Debug, the lib file (.a) is created under cmake-build-debug.
