Hi everyone,
After having a closer look at this issue I dont think it s name related
anymore, even if I dont have a clue right now ^^ .
Anyway now having source.c and source.cc in the source for my target, I ended
up with a " cannot determine link language " although I carefully wrote :
PROJECT ( target CXX )
When forcing the link language :
SET_TARGET_PROPERTIES(${project_name} PROPERTIES LINKER_LANGUAGE CXX)
I can see in my source that some of my .cc file became .c ...
Well it my be an error on my side, How ever I wonder how cmake works when
mixing C and C++ code. Is there a doc about that somewhere ?
Most of my problem comes from that I think, as I am trying to mix convenience
lib C code and C++ target code.
So I wonder what s the best option for me right now... wait for convenience lib
support in cmake ;) ? rewrite my C code in C++ look-alike files ? keep looking
for bugs in my macros ?
I have a sample of my hierarchy to test my macros if someone is interested,
probably a bit too big to put it right here...
Thanks for any hints,
