After installing hdf5-1.8.17 using a cmake build I am using

find_package(HDF5 COMPONENTS CXX C NO_MODULE REQUIRED static)

and target_link_libraries(my_target .... ${HDF5_EXPORT_LIBRARIES})
but my link fails with
/usr/bin/ld.x: cannot find -lhdf5_hl_cpp-shared}

which is clearly wrong since I didn't ask for HL in my components and I did ask 
for static, not shared

If I'm not supposed to use the catch all variable ${HDF5_EXPORT_LIBRARIES}, 
then what should I use?

If I ask for
target_link_libraries(my_target hdf5 hdf5_cpp)
it fails with cannot find -lhdf5

if I ask for (the actual target names declared as inport in the 
hdf5-config.cmake)
target_link_libraries(my_target hdf5-static hdf5_cpp-static)
it fails with cannot find -lhdf5-static

Cmake does not seem to be resolving the target correctly
What is the correct target name to use?

thanks

JB
