Hi all,
I am new to this list and hope its the right point of contact for
feature/enhancement proposals, if not, please give me the right pointer.
I experienced that CMake 2.8 automatically figures out how to link a
C/Fortran executable when linking to a static C++ library, great.
However I already had my own system in place to figure out that data, as
I have to output this information to the user of my application. So my
tests failed for CMake 2.8, as it was doing the right things in the
background, but I didn't knew where to look for the magic that was used
internally by CMake, which I have to know in order to give the
information to the user. After hours of googling I finally found the
right variables to read this information
"CMAKE_CXX_IMPLICIT_LINK_LIBRARIES" and
"CMAKE_CXX_IMPLICIT_LINK_LIBRARIES". None of these variables are
documented anywere, the only pointer to these comes from a single Forum
post. I would strongly advice to document these variables, as this is
something that users might need to know.
