    get_filename_component(AVROCPP_ROOT_FIND_DIR ${AVROCPP_INCLUDE_DIR} DIRECTORY)
    find_library(AVROCPP_LIBRARY_RELEASE avrocpp PATHS "${AVROCPP_ROOT_FIND_DIR}/lib/" REQUIRED NO_DEFAULT_PATH)

    target_include_directories(main PRIVATE "${AVROCPP_INCLUDE_DIR}")
    target_link_libraries(main PRIVATE optimized "${AVROCPP_LIBRARY_RELEASE}" debug "${AVROCPP_LIBRARY_DEBUG}")
