<p class=MsoNormal>Hi all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I am trying to _<i>include</i>_ an externally built library
B in a static lib A that I’m building with Cmake.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>For MSVC, I would like it to end up in the
Librarian>Additional Dependencies (and have its path in the Additional Library
Directories). Also, this would add some /LIBPATH: and the library names at the
end of the linker command.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>For Linux ld, the equivalent result would be to have the B
library appended to the linker command, with the –whole-archive
parameter.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Apparently, using the Cmake command: target_link_libraries(<my
lib A> <my lib B>) with Cmake 2.6.0 patch0 does not produce this
result (nothing in the additional dependencies field in MSVC)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Is that supported by Cmake ?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Thanks a bunch,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Armand<o:p></o:p></p>
