Hello, @smrfeld ,Thanks for sharing this pybind11-cmake tutorial! Actually, This is not a issue but a request.

I am a beginner of pybind11 and this project helps me a lot. However, I am wondering how to let VSCODE automatically highlight pybind package like ordinary python pacakge, as well as automatically complete args and function names. Should I add py.in files?

I'm having the following error while I try to run make at the setting up the Python wrapper section. May I have some help on finding out what is missing?
The output is pasted below.

(base) asanci@asanci:~/python/build$ make
Scanning dependencies of target automobile
make[2]: *** No rule to make target 'CMakeFiles/automobile.dir/build'.  Stop.
CMakeFiles/Makefile2:67: recipe for target 'CMakeFiles/automobile.dir/all' failed
make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/automobile.dir/all] Error 2
Makefile:129: recipe for target 'all' failed
make: *** [all] Error 2`

The configure step runs without error. The build has so many errors, and such odd ones, that my first guess is that I need to update something. But what?

Python 3.11, Visual Studio 17.6.3.

Would you like me to try the latest pybind11.h before you look into this?

In the step "Testing the C++ library", the current version of your code throws an error because "test" is a reserved word while running make on Ubuntu. The issue is resolved after I changed the test names to tests. You may like to update naming with a safer word.

I am learning this for the first time, hence my use of this tutorial, so this is likely a result of my inexperience. But maybe someone else has the same issue..

I am running cmake 3.19.7 and GNU Make 3.81 on macOS 10.14.6.

When I've run cmake .. from the cpp/build directory i get the output

-- Configuring done
-- Generating done
-- Build files have been written to: /Users/(...)/pybind_tutorial/cpp/build

Then, when i run make, i get make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.
Running make install returns make: *** No rule to make target 'install'. Stop..

My project structure is as described in the tutorial:

cpp/build
cpp/CMakeLists.txt
cpp/include/automobile
cpp/include/automobile_bits/motorcycle.hpp
cpp/src/motorcycle.cpp

After running the cmake .. command, the cpp/build directory holds the files

build.ninja
cmake_install.cmake
CMakeCache.txt
compile_commands.json
CPackConfig.cmake
CPackSourceConfig.cmake
CTestTestfile.cmake
DartConfiguration.tcl

The cpp/build/CMakeFiles directory contains

cmake.check_cache
CMakeOutput.log
rules.ninja
TargetDirectories.txt
automobile.dir/src (empty directory)
3.19.7 (what looks like standard version-specific cmake files)

As said, I feel like this is a product of my inexperience, but any help getting this to work would be greatly appreciated.

Edit:
Following this tutorial worked, although i can't seem to understand why that worked and not your tutorial, I'm guessing it has something to do with the different CMakeLists.txt files? I prefer written tutorials to videos, but that video is the only thing I've come across in over a day that ended up working for me.
