Well, CMake probably fetches CMakeLists.txt from the zlib directory and then just builds CMake... >> I'm out of ideas here.

So it seems that ZLIB_LIBRARY might have to > point to the actual library and not a directory. Keep in mind that I'm on Windows. This is the actual problem here :) Of course on Linux and Mac zlib is already installed but on Windows I need to point CMake to zlib explicitly. But currently I'm failing to see how to do that as all my approaches have failed so far. Your suggestion of setting ZLIB_LIBRARY to the actual library instead of a directory also doesn't help because I aim to link statically against both libzip and zlib so all libzip should actually need is access to the zlib headers but I don't see how to pass that path to CMake... -- Best regards, Andreas Falkenhahn mailto:andreas%falkenhahn.com@localhost
