setting up the helloworld example for cmake build; building with ixwebsocket library

[timbo100]

Please pardon my ignorance. I'm new to CMake.

I appear to have successfully built and install ixwebsocket with the final sudo make install

I've created a main.cpp file from the example shown at here

I've placed the main.cpp in a directory and added a CMakeLists.txt file:

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.14)
set (CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD 14)
project(test1 C CXX)
find_package(ixwebsocket)
add_executable(test1 main.cpp)
target_link_libraries (test1 ixwebsocket)
install(TARGETS test1 DESTINATION bin)

I'm sure my CMakeLists.txt file is the problem.

When I run cmake .. from the ../build dir I don't get any cmake errors.

However, when i run make I get a lot of link errors, "undefined references". I know what this typically means but I'm not sure how to get the CMakefile insures that the objects are found.

Here's a brief list of the kinds of errors I'm getting:
