[CMake] BUILD_INTERFACE genex used even in install(EXPORT...

[Mueller-Roemer, Johannes Sebastian]

For clarification:

As an imported target can't have debug and optimized keywords, I can't simply use
$<BUILD_INTERFACE:${Boost_LIBRARIES}> $<INSTALL_INTERFACE:\${Boost_LIBRARIES}>
But have to do
$<BUILD_INTERFACE:
	$<$<CONFIG:Debug>:
		${Boost_COROUTINE_LIBRARY_DEBUG}
		${Boost_CONTEXT_LIBRARY_DEBUG}
		${Boost_SYSTEM_LIBRARY_DEBUG}
	>
	$<$<NOT:$<CONFIG:Debug>>:
		${Boost_COROUTINE_LIBRARY_RELEASE}
		${Boost_CONTEXT_LIBRARY_RELEASE}
		${Boost_SYSTEM_LIBRARY_RELEASE}
	>
>
$<INSTALL_INTERFACE:
	$<$<CONFIG:Debug>:
		\${Boost_COROUTINE_LIBRARY_DEBUG}
		\${Boost_CONTEXT_LIBRARY_DEBUG}
		\${Boost_SYSTEM_LIBRARY_DEBUG}
	>
	$<$<NOT:$<CONFIG:Debug>>:
		\${Boost_COROUTINE_LIBRARY_RELEASE}
		\${Boost_CONTEXT_LIBRARY_RELEASE}
		\${Boost_SYSTEM_LIBRARY_RELEASE}
	>

Instead which is excessively verbose...

See the reply from Nils and the documentation link I posted previously.

I don't fully understand the question. Imported targets for Boost would be cleaner, but there's no one submitting and maintaining such a thing. There was a discussion that could be picked up though.

Thanks,
