One way is to put this file along with the sources in a subdirectory
of your project and use the add_subdirectory cmake command to add that
to your project. Then add qextserialport to your
TARGET_LINK_LIBRARIES. This time just use qextserialport since it is
not a variable but a target. You will also have to add a entry to your
include_directories for the location of the .h file in this
subdirectory.
