Subject: [PATCH] Fixed bug 3166 - It would be nice, if SDL would support
 including SDL project as a subdirectory into another CMake project

Wayde Reitsma

After attempting to use SDL2 in the way described in this bug, I found the main issue was the includes not being added to the compiler command.

I found the issue was that the target_include_directories commands for the SDL2, SDL2-static and SDL2main targets only sets the public includes for installations using the INSTALL_INTERFACE generator expression.

I have written a patch to CMakeLists.txt that fixes this issue by adding another item to the target_include_directories commands, utilizing the BUILD_INTERFACE generator expression to correctly add the include directory during builds.
