[CMake] How to use LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES
Hello! I'm having a hard time at properly using LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES. From what I understood, setting this property empty for a target avoids transitive dependencies linking. But whatever I try, it doesn't work. I have created a lib A linked against lib B. I'm also creating an exe linked against lib A. But I really don't want it to be linked against lib B. Till now I've tried target_link_libraries(myexe A) target_link_libraries(myexe LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES ) and target_link_libraries(myexe A) set_target_properties(myexe PROPERTIES LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES ) and target_link_libraries(myexe LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES A) But in all these cases the exe gets linked against B :( (which causes loading issues due to RPATH stuff) Does someone know how to use this property? (if it's the right one?)
