Thanks for the reply, I have been playing with this unsuccessfully. It
doesn't have the desired effect so I think I'm doing something wrong.
"Make uses these options to set the link type for libraries whose full
paths are not known or (in some cases) are in implicit link directories
for the platform. By default the linker search type is left at -Bdynamic
by the end of the library list."
IOW any library of the form "-lfoo" is assumed to be -Bdynamic. Libraries
in implicit link directories like "/usr/lib/libbar.a" will get turned into
"-Bstatic -lbar" but then a later "-lfoo" will become "-Bdynamic -lfoo"
since "-lfoo" is assumed to be dynamic. This is all because CMake assumes
dynamic linking is preferred.
OK but why would LINK_SEARCH_END_STATIC result in "-Wl,-Bstatic
-Wl,-Bdynamic" being used ? Shouldn't it be just "-Bstatic" ?
Why is CMake's default to make a substitution like "-lfoo" with
"-Bdynamic -lfoo" ? It seems like this choice is unnecessarily
complicating things. It's also often redundant (as long as you don't
want to mix static and dynamic linking) because without this ld defaults
to using shared libraries. These substitutions override what's set in
CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS making that pretty much useless. It would be
useful to be able to turn off these substitutions, then the "-static" in
CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS would work.
I wondering if the LINK_SEARCH_*_STATIC issues are sidetracking us,
because there's one instance of -Bdynamic appearing in the middle of the
link line (below), and it's not affected by LINK_SEARCH_*_STATIC. I have
no idea where it's coming from but it's presence is related to enabling
python support because otherwise pv links statically fine. By the way
this is a statically linked build of python.
Now you can set a "LINK_SEARCH_START_STATIC" property to switch the dynamic
linking assumption to static linking. In combination with "-static" that
should produce a link line with no -Bdynamic options that links statically.
This new feature should be available in the nightly builds by tomorrow:
Thank you Brad! I tried the new feature and I still have a -Bdynamic
appearing in the middle of the link line at "../../bin/libhdf5.a
-Wl,-Bdynamic -lm ../../bin/libvtkPVCommandOptions.a", full link line
from the LINK_SEARCH_START_STATIC build follows.
