You could look at extending the official CMake documentation, specifically the build system documentation ( https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.9/manual/cmake-buildsystem.7.html ).
The documentation is all in restructure text and we accept documentation changes through our gitlab instance. cmake gitlab: https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake build-system restructure page: https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/blob/master/Help/manual/cmake-buildsystem.7.rst contribution guideline: https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.rst On Tue, Aug 22, 2017 at 9:44 AM, Miller Henry <[email protected]> wrote: > > I’ve been playing with the private/public/interface keyword to > target_link_libraries.
