Hello,
The docs say [1]:
"Libraries and targets following PRIVATE are linked to, but are not
made part of the link interface."
If so, why does this snippet:
add_library(private_lib STATIC ...)
add_library(public_lib STATIC ...)
target_link_libraries(Test PRIVATE private_lib
PUBLIC public_lib)
install(EXPORT ...)
sets Test's imported target's properties with:
IMPORTED_LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES_RELEASE "private_lib;public_lib"
I thought BUILD_INTERFACE and INSTALL_INTERFACE generator expressions
can solve this, but it turns out BUILD_INTERFACE is propagated, and
INSTALL_INTERFACE is not, i.e.
IMPORTED_LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES_RELEASE
"private_lib;public_lib;build_interface_lib"
regards
