I’m trying to link irrKlang to my CMake project. For that, I’ve started to follow this example.

Also, I’ve downloaded a 64-bit archive from the official website and put it in the third-party directory in my project, it looks like this (I expanded the directories that I consider necessary for further explanation):

I copied the code, fixed paths, and it builds successfully:

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.28)

project(template)

...

set(THIRD_PARTY_DIR ${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/third-party)
set(IRRKLANG_DIR ${THIRD_PARTY_DIR}/irrklang)

...

target_link_libraries(${PROJECT_NAME} ${IRRKLANG_DIR}/lib/Winx64-visualStudio/irrKlang.lib)
target_include_directories(${PROJECT_NAME} PUBLIC ${IRRKLANG_DIR}/include)

add_custom_command(
        TARGET ${PROJECT_NAME}
        POST_BUILD COMMAND ${CMAKE_COMMAND} -E copy_if_different
        "${IRRKLANG_DIR}/bin/winx64-visualStudio/irrKlang.dll"
        "$<TARGET_FILE_DIR:${PROJECT_NAME}>/irrKlang.dll"
)
add_custom_command(
        TARGET ${PROJECT_NAME}
        POST_BUILD COMMAND ${CMAKE_COMMAND} -E copy_if_different
        "${IRRKLANG_DIR}/bin/winx64-visualStudio/ikpFlac.dll"
        "$<TARGET_FILE_DIR:${PROJECT_NAME}>/ikpFlac.dll"
)
add_custom_command(
        TARGET ${PROJECT_NAME}
        POST_BUILD COMMAND ${CMAKE_COMMAND} -E copy_if_different
        "${IRRKLANG_DIR}/bin/winx64-visualStudio/ikpMP3.dll"
        "$<TARGET_FILE_DIR:${PROJECT_NAME}>/ikpMP3.dll"
)

I use CLion in Windows 11, in Toolchains I see this:

CLion sees headers (I can include irrKlang.h), but this is not working:

#include "irrKlang.h"

irrklang::ISoundEngine *SoundEngine = irrklang::createIrrKlangDevice();

An error says: undefined reference to __imp__ZN8irrklang20createIrrKlangDeviceENS_21E_SOUND_OUTPUT_DRIVEREiPKcS2_

Also I tried to add #pragma comment(lib, "irrKlang.lib") after the header, but it’s not working either.

DLL’s are copied to my exe path successfully.

As I understand it, this solution is not working for the GNU toolchain.

I’m not very good in connecting libraries in C++. What should I do?

Also, I tried to target_link_libraries with .so from bin/linux-gcc-64 and .exp files from lib/Winx64-visualStudio, but unsuccessfully.
