Trouble with CMake and GLFW on Linux (Ubuntu 22.04)

Hello,

Im currently on Ubuntu 22.04 and I try to run the following code

#include "glad.h"
#define GLFW_INCLUDE_NONE
#include <GLFW/glfw3.h>
 
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
 
int main()
{
    glfwInit();
    glfwWindowHint(GLFW_CONTEXT_VERSION_MAJOR, 3);
    glfwWindowHint(GLFW_CONTEXT_VERSION_MINOR, 3);
    glfwWindowHint(GLFW_OPENGL_PROFILE, GLFW_OPENGL_CORE_PROFILE);
    //glfwWindowHint(GLFW_OPENGL_FORWARD_COMPAT, GL_TRUE);
  
    return 0;
}

Im developing on vs code.

My CMakeListTxt looks like this

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.30)
set(GLFW_BUILD_DOCS OFF CACHE BOOL "" FORCE)
set(GLFW_BUILD_TESTS OFF CACHE BOOL "" FORCE)
set(GLFW_BUILD_EXAMPLES OFF CACHE BOOL "" FORCE)
cmake_policy(SET CMP0072 NEW)
find_package(OpenGL REQUIRED)
find_package(glfw3 3.4 REQUIRED)
add_executable(helloworld 
    helloworld.cpp
    glad.c 
    glad.h)
add_subdirectory(/home/t/Documents/glfw-3.4 /home/t/Documents/glfw-3.4/build)
include_directories(/home/t/Documents/glfw-3.4/include)
target_link_libraries(helloworld 
    glfw3 
    OpenGL::GL)

But I code 21 errors

Does anyone know a solution? I tried to find one for hours. And I dont have a clue.

I don’t have time right now to go through your issue, but have you tried this GLFW CMake starter example project?
