Description
When building json-fortran as a CMake subproject (i.e. json-fortran is not the top-level project), typically with FetchContent, the following error occurs:
CMake Error: File [REDACTED]/.VERSION.in does not exist.
CMake Error at build/_deps/json-fortran-src/CMakeLists.txt:48 (configure_file):
configure_file Problem configuring fileThis error occurs because json-fortran tries to configure the file .VERSION.in located in CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR, however when json-fortran is not the top-level project, CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR is not json-fortran's source directory (and thus .VERSION.in is likely not present).
Replacing CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR with CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR should solve the issue.
Moreover, since the .VERSION file seems to only be used when generating the documentation, adding a conditional statement with JSONFORTRAN_ENABLE_DOC_GENERATION may be a good idea.
I'll propose a PR with the fixed I suggest.
Version: 9.0.3
