Hi list, I'm finding myself in the following situation.
- Project A generates libmain.a and export(TARGETS ... NAMESPACE ns) it to a file. The target is called ns::main - Project B includes this file and has some executables link with libmain.a (via target_link_libraries(exe ns::main). - Project B's CMakeLists.txt contains a add_custom_target(build ...) which runs cmake --build in project A's build-dir. - the target build is a add_dependency() of ns::main. Building it with gnu-make works like a charm - make is entering project A's build-dir before linking. Building it with ninja fails with not finding libmain.a - which is normal it has not yet been built. Ninja seems to evaluate the complete dependency-tree of files before doing anything. Is there a way to fix this? Thanks. best regards, -- Patrick. -- 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.
