Hello, First off, you cannot call both add_executable and add_library in the same CMakeLists file. Here is what I can say about your other questions:
1. All commands that require a target have to come after you have created the target via add_executable or add_library. This is simply because you need to have a target before you can adds things to it. 2. I am not real sure why this would work. But, for common practices, you should always call target_link_libraries after your call to add_library or add_executable for the reason stated above. 3. Again, this is the same answer. It will work as long as you make the call to the command after add_library or add_executable. Hope this helps. Eric From: cmake-boun...@cmake.org [mailto:cmake-boun...@cmake.org] On Behalf Of ??
