CMake Error with "generate_plugins_files" Target When Building Squeezelite-esp32

[trangiahuytn]

Hello @sle118,
I’m facing an issue while building the Squeezelite-esp32 project with ESP-IDF. When I run idf.py menuconfig, I get this CMake error:
"CMake Error at components/platform_config/CMakeLists.txt:7 (add_dependencies):
The dependency target "generate_plugins_files" of target "__idf_platform_config" does not exist."

I’ve searched the source code but couldn’t find the "generate_plugins_files" target defined anywhere.

Details

• ESP-IDF Version: [your ESP-IDF version, e.g., 5.4.1]
• Operating System: [your OS, e.g., Windows 11]
• Development Environment: [e.g., VS Code with ESP-IDF extension]
• Command Used: idf.py menuconfig

Steps I’ve Tried

1. Searched for "generate_plugins_files" in the code with grep -r "generate_plugins_files" ., but found nothing.
2. Removed the line add_dependencies(${COMPONENT_LIB} generate_plugins_files) in CMakeLists.txt, but I’m unsure if this is correct.
3. Added a placeholder target like this:

   add_custom_target(generate_plugins_files
       COMMAND echo "Generating plugin files"
       COMMENT "Placeholder for generating plugin files"
   )
