Hello, I think this has already been discussed and the answer is negative but still: when I do target_link_libraries to an external library (for instance, my application needs to link to sqlite), is it possible to tell CMake to link to the static version of sqlite instead of the dynamic version?
For instance, in Debian the libsqlite3-dev package contains both the static and the dynamic versions of the library and they have the very same name: /usr/lib/libsqlite3.a /usr/lib/libsqlite3.so ( http://packages.debian.org/sid/i386/libsqlite3-dev/filelist ) Is this feature going to be implemented any time soon? I have not looked at the sources for target_link_libraries but at first sight it doesn't look difficult to add something like "static;optimized;libsqlite3.a;dynamic;optimized;libsqlite3.so". There's the problem of find_library on Windows confusing the .lib as the import for a .dll with a static .lib library but IIRC it's possible to detect that. -- Pau Garcia i Quiles http://www.elpauer.org (Due to my workload, I may need 10 days to answer) _______________________________________________ Powered by www.kitware.com Visit other Kitware open-source projects at http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Follow this link to subscribe/unsubscribe: http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake
