Cocos2d-x 4.0, Box2d, Json from extem

I want to know. How can I add Box2d and Json from external lib in a new project in Cocos2d-x 4.0? I know I should added in CMakeLists.txt but I was not able to added it. Help mepicture

You were able to add it?

Can you post what you have in your CMakeLists?

Sorry, I did a mistake “I was NOT able to added”, I have a new project, there is the original File. Can you show me how I can add this extentions?

Please use the formatting tags (3 backtick characters before and after your code sections) in your posts when you want to paste formatted text like source code and such.

Anyway, to understand how to use certain things in the engine, just do a search in the code and the CMake related files.

The JSON code isn’t a library, you just include it in your source when you need to use it, for example:

#include "json/rapidjson.h"
#include "json/document-wrapper.h"
#include "json/stringbuffer.h"
#include "json/writer.h"

For Box2D, what you have is correct:

add_definitions(-DCC_ENABLE_BOX2D_INTEGRATION=1)

or better yet:

target_compile_definitions(${APP_NAME} PUBLIC CC_ENABLE_BOX2D_INTEGRATION=1)

Box2D may require you writing support code in order to utilize it, since the main engine supported is Chipmunk.

Thank you so much,
I shuold add this two lines

add_definitions(-DCC_ENABLE_BOX2D_INTEGRATION=1)
add_definitions(-DCC_ENABLE_CHIPMUNK_INTEGRATION=0)

and

#include "Box2D/Box2D.h"

to add box2d in my .h file, and the line

#include “json/rapidjson.h”

work perfect
