Wes McKinney created PARQUET-487:
------------------------------------
Summary: Add cmake options for various dependency-linking scenarios
Key: PARQUET-487
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PARQUET-487
Project: Parquet
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: parquet-cpp
Reporter: Wes McKinney
Unless {{libparquet}} is being built as part of a statically-linked application
toolchain, it may be preferable in a lot of cases to use dynamic linking with
its dependencies, rather than statically linking everything as it does now.
I envision several distinct use cases we should support
* {{libparquet.so}}, with no dependencies statically linked that have shared
libraries available
* {{libparquet.so}}, with all dependencies statically linked (this is what we
are doing now)
* {{libparquet.a}}, with all dependencies statically linked
* {{libparquet.a}}, without any unnecessary static linking
Having these options accessible through cmake flags will help users of
parquet-cpp avoid dependency hell in some cases, and incorporate libparquet in
the desired way into a 3rd-party build toolchain
