It would be really nice though if CMake would support library aliases for
import targets, then I could achieve the same using much nicer code.
3.11 will include support for aliasing import targets, as long as the
import target was marked with GLOBAL visibility.

Thanks for your comment, I seem to have misunderstood the usage of
BUILD_SHARED_LIBS. I will remove the hack to serve either a static or
shared libprimesieve from my cmake config file.

Thanks, I got it working!
Unfortunately I could not make the generator expression work inside
PrimesieveConfig.cmake.in, here is the error message:
CMake Error:
Error evaluating generator expression:
$
Expression did not evaluate to a known generator expression
Note that in my main CMake
CMake currently does not allow alias libraries for import targets:
$ cmake ..
CMake Error at /usr/local/lib/cmake/primesieve/PrimesieveConfig.cmake:7
(add_library):
add_library cannot create ALIAS target "my_libprimesieve" because target
"Primesieve::libprimesieve-static" is IMPORTED.
Call Sta
If you want to support consumers that are building shared and static
libraries themselves you can do this by using an import library with a
generator expression.
A simplified version of how do this, besides the import library can be found at:
https://github.com/robertmaynard/Sandbox/blob/master/CM
I think you can use what's called an "Alias Library":
https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/command/add_library.html#alias-libraries
if (BUILD_SHARED_LIBS)
add_library(my_libprimesieve ALIAS libprimesieve)
else
add_library(my_libprimesieve ALIAS libprimesieve-static)
endif(BUILD_SHARED_LIB
Hi,
My primesieve project builds as both a static and a shared library, hence
there are 2 targets in my main CMakeLists.txt:
1) libprimesieve (shared library)
2) libprimesieve-static
I am now trying to add support for find_package(Primesieve). Ideally I
would like that users can link against lib
