[CMake] works when I build using XCode, but not with CMake makefile

[Cotton Candy]

Peter,
In XCode I have this list of "settings" that includes
"Other Linker Flags" that I have set to "-lmysqlclient -lpthread -lm -lz"
and
"Other C++ Flags" that I have set to "-L/Applications/MAMP/Library/lib
-lmysqlclient -lpthread -lz"

Maybe these explain why things work when I build with XCode, but not with
CMake.

In my CMakeLists.txt file I included:
set( CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS  "-L/Applications/MAMP/Library/lib -lmysqlclient
-lpthread -lz" )
set( CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS  "-lmysqlclient -lpthread -lm -lz" )

but when I run the make it always says it is ignoring these (e.g. "warning:
argument unused during compilation: '-L/Applications/MAMP/Library/lib'").

Thanks again for you help.
Aaron
