The following issue has been SUBMITTED. ====================================================================== https://public.kitware.com/Bug/view.php?id=15823 ====================================================================== Reported By: Anthony Ette Assigned To: ====================================================================== Project: CMake Issue ID: 15823 Category: CMake Reproducibility: always Severity: major Priority: normal Status: new ====================================================================== Date Submitted: 2015-10-31 14:46 EDT Last Modified: 2015-10-31 14:46 EDT ====================================================================== Summary: FIND_LIBRARY & TARGET_LINK_LIBRARIES Description: On version 3.3.20150618. I am not understanding the behavior of these two commands or am getting inconsistent results. Sometimes when the results of a found static library from FIND_LIBRARY are passed to TARGET_LINK_LIBRARIES, it generates "/path/to/lib" linker syntax BUT other times it produces a "-Wl,-Bstatic -llib -Wl,-Bdynamic" syntax. I've confirmed that both lib vars as returned from FIND_LIBRARY are full paths to .a static archive files so how can the different handling at the linker CLI be explained?
Steps to Reproduce: Unknown. Some libs are handled one way and others are handled another. The only potential lead may be that they come from different paths on the file system (say one from /usr/lib and another from /sim/lib/v67/ihawk).
