使用cmake编译时出错：找不到-ldwmapi

Question

Edit: Im using MinGW-x86_64 on windows

When Im trying to compile a gtk+ 3 c project with cmake, I have this error message on the log:

"C:\Program Files\JetBrains\CLion 2017.1.3\bin\cmake\bin\cmake.exe" --build C:\Users\Jonas\ClionProjects\tutorial\cmake-build-debug --target tutorial -- -j 4

c:/mingw/bin/../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.9.3/../../../../mingw32/bin/ld.exe: cannot find -ldwmapi

This is my CMakeLists.txt, in there I added gtk3 and its libraries, but when Im trying to compile, it has the errors mentioned before.

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.7)
project(tutorial)

set(CMAKE_C_STANDARD 99)

set(SOURCE_FILES main.c)

set(PKG_CONFIG_EXECUTABLE "C:/msys64/mingw64/bin/pkg-config.exe")

FIND_PACKAGE(PkgConfig REQUIRED)
PKG_CHECK_MODULES(GTK3 REQUIRED gtk+-3.0)

INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES(${GTK3_INCLUDE_DIRS})
LINK_DIRECTORIES(${GTK3_LIBRARY_DIRS})

add_executable(tutorial ${SOURCE_FILES})

ADD_DEFINITIONS(${GTK3_CFLAGS_OTHER})

TARGET_LINK_LIBRARIES(tutorial ${GTK3_LIBRARIES})

dwmapi.dll is provided only for Vista. So I guess that it is a bug of package of gtk+-3.0. And -ldwmapi is not required for your OS. Below is a workaround to fix this issue. I don't make sure this will solve your issue. Note that this is self-responsibility.

1. make backup-copy of gdk-3.0.pc, gdk-broadway-3.0.pc, gdk-win32-3.0.pc in C:\\msys64\\mingw64\\lib\\pkgconfig
2. open those files in vim, remove -ldwmapi and :wq

UPDATE

Let's create libdwmapi.a

1. download def file from here
2. dlltool -d dwmapi.def -l libdwmapi.a
