abseil library isn't installed resulting in compilation error

[pkoosha]

I did
git clone --recursive https://github.com/ClickHouse/clickhouse-cpp.git
then

make -DBUILD_TESTS=ON -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS="-std=c++17" -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=/opt/gcc/7.5.0/bin/g++ -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=/opt/gcc/7.5.0/bin/gcc -DCMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS="-L/opt/gcc/7.5.0/lib64" -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=/home/kousha.2/projects/clickhouse-cpp/build/install-dir ..

I don't see absl directory anywhere in install-dir that I specified or /usr/local/include/

When I try to compile the example program on your README.in file I get the following error

Please help me . thanks

Missed install command from cmakelists https://github.com/ClickHouse/clickhouse-cpp/blob/master/contrib/absl/absl/CMakeLists.txt, also TARGET_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES should be corrected with BUILD_INTERFACE and INSTALL_INTERFACE

[sjdhanasekaran]

@Jihadist have you fixed this ?

[xakod]

@sjdhanasekaran I think nope

[sjdhanasekaran]

@Jihadist Just for working solution i have done this. Modified CMakeLists.txt of contrib/absil to copy [Not a standard coding but it will work]

https://github.com/sjdhanasekaran/clickhouse-cpp/tree/v2.5.1-fix

[xakod]

@sjdhanasekaran feel free to make pr)
