I have the following directory of c++ files, and it looks like:

d.lib
--apps
----run_logger.cpp
----CMakeLists.txt
--include
----logger.h
--source
----logger.cpp

I want to build run_logger.cpp. I'm using Visual Studio. My CMakeLists is
Code:
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.10)

project(d_lib)

# Add your source files
file(GLOB_RECURSE SOURCES "source/*.cpp" "include/*.h")

# Add your executable
add_executable(run_logger.cpp ${SOURCES})

How can I get this to compile? Thanks for your help.[/code]
