问题:
In foo/CMakeLists.txt, based on this and this, I have the following
SET (EXTERNAL_LIB_ROOT "../../external_libs/") ADD_LIBRARY (avcodec-debug STATIC IMPORTED) SET_PROPERTY ( TARGET avcodec-debug PROPERTY IMPORTED_LOCATION ${EXTERNAL_LIB_ROOT}/libavcodec-0.8.10.a)
In bar/CMakeLists.txt I have this:
# old way uses system libraries #TARGET_LINK_LIBRARIES (bar avformat avcodec avutil) # new way uses local debug builds TARGET_LINK_LIBRARIES (bar avformat avcodec-debug avutil)
When I run make I get
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lavcodec-debug
If I revert to the old way, build, touch foo/CMakeLists.txt and rebuild, CMake's configuration output indicates that avcodec-debug is being found by the build system.
So why can't I add it as a dependency?
回答1:
Imported targets do not follow the same visibility rules as non-imported targets. While non-imported targets are global (visible and accessible from anywhere after they're defined), imported targets are only visible in the CMakeLists.txt where they are defined and below (in directories added by add_subdirectory() in this defining CMakeList).
Since foo is a sibling of bar in your case, the target name avcodec-debug is not visible inside bar/CMakeLists.txt, so it's treated as a normal library name.
It's generally preferred to define imported targets in files you include rather than in their own projects. So change (or extract the relevant parts of) foo/CMakeLists.txt into foo/avcodec.cmake and then in the top-level CMakeList, replace
add_subdirectory(foo)
with
include(foo/avcodec.cmake)
回答2:
As it mentioned above by Angew the visibility for imported library differs, though you can extend it using GLOBAL modifier. It might be enough for you to modify add_library call next way
ADD_LIBRARY(avcodec-debug STATIC IMPORTED GLOBAL)
