Hi All,
I have a question about CHECK_C_COMPILER_FLAG behaviour.
Documentation will tell that "the compiler does not give an error
message when it encounters the flag".
Unfortunately, it not only compiles but try to link executable.
If linker fails, due missed libraries it also does not produce
positive result even if compilation was successful.
Is it expected behaviour or issue?
My example environment
cmake v3.4.3/Linux/gcc v4.8.5
check_c_compiler_flag("-fsanitize=address" HAVE_C_FLAG_asan)
Log in CMakeError.log
...
erforming C SOURCE FILE Test HAVE_C_FLAG_asan failed with the following output:
