Suppose you have a library named general:<br>
<br>
-----<br>
add_library(general foo bar)<br>
-----<br>
<br></div>
....and then try to link it into an application:<div class="im"><br>
-----<br>
add_executable(myapp baz)<br>
target_link_libraries(myapp general)<br>
-----<br>
<br>
cmake complains about the fact that 'general' is a reserved keyword, and I<br>
have found no way to force or finagle linkage against a library named<br>
'libgeneral'.<br>
</div></blockquote>
<br>
Name the target something else (e.g. 'libgeneral') and modify its OUTPUT_NAME? (See set_target_properties and the OUTPUT_NAME property.)<br>
<br>
If all you need is to produce a 'libgeneral.so', that may suffice. If you also need the target name to be 'general'...<br>
