I have an issue in CMake 3.12 with using transitive OBJECT libraries.The basic skeleton is:
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.12) project(objectlib LANGUAGES CXX) add_library(box OBJECT box.cc box.hh) add_library(make_box OBJECT make_box.cc make_box.hh) target_link_libraries(make_box PUBLIC box) add_executable(main main.cc) target_link_libraries(main PUBLIC make_box) Note that `main` depends on `make_box`, not `box`, which should be transitive (correct?). The full files can be seen in this gist: https://gist.github.com/morrisonlevi/b1508531b1464921664ca06c0fd889bb The issue is that when building`main` it does not include `box.o` in the link line. Given how new this feature is, I'm not sure if it's an issue with my expectations or with CMake. The issue happens in debug builds and goes away in release mode, presumably because the compiler inlines it. -- Powered by www.kitware.com Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Kitware offers various services to support the CMake community.
