Do you add any interface properties to any object libraries currently?
Do the new tcd() and tid() work for them, at least for the impl
properties (COMPILE_DEFINITIONS and INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES)?
Note that object libraries never appear in tll() calls as either
the LHS or RHS argument. They are also never installed or exported.
It does make sense to publish INTERFACE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES and
INTERFACE_COMPILE_DEFINITIONS on object library targets, but we
do not need to chain to them automatically. Consumers of an
object library already need to do
add_executable(consumer $<TARGET_OBJECTS:objlib>)
so they could also do
target_include_directories(consumer
$<TARGET_PROPERTY:objlib,INTERFACE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES>)
target_compile_definitions(consumer
$<TARGET_PROPERTY:objlib,INTERFACE_COMPILE_DEFINITIONS>)
explicitly.
