Moving this to the developer list where I meant it to be, rather than on the cmake users list. Sorry for anyone who gets it twice.
I am looking for a way to set global flags for the librarian when creating static libraries, similar to CMAKE_SHARED_LINKER_FLAGS or CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS. This would facilitate things like using 3rd party libraries that already use cmake without having to modify their CMakeLists.txt to set these flags. > I found http://public.kitware.com/Bug/view.php?id=10094 which mentions > using CMAKE_STATIC_LINKER_FLAGS as well as this fairly old thread > http://www.cmake.org/pipermail/cmake/2009-October/032563.html also > mentioning this. > > Has there been any progress on this feature? > If not, does a feature that exposes a CMAKE_STATIC_LINKER_FLAGS (and > CMAKE_STATIC_LINKER_FLAGS_<TARGET>) which are then passed to the librarian > (ar, lib.exe etx) make sense?
