It is not necessary to explicitly set the policy. Even a minimum version of CMake 2.6 will set that particular policy to NEW. > I add these to library to the linker using full path: > TARGET_LINK_LIBRARY(target /usr/lib/A /some/path/B) > > I run cmake and got the error: > > CMake Warning at CMakeLists.txt:67 (add_executable): > Cannot generate a safe linker search path for target target because files > in some directories may conflict with libraries in implicit directories: > > link library [A] in /usr/lib may be hidden by files in: > /some/path > > Some of these libraries may not be found correctly. I was able to reproduce this as follows: cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.6) project(FOO C) link_directories(/some/path) # ** this line is the cause add_executable(foo foo.c) target_link_libraries(foo /usr/lib/libm.so /some/path/libB.so) Without the explicit link_directories call it should not happen. Perhaps in something else in the project is calling link_directories()? -Brad _______________________________________________ Powered by www.kitware.com Visit other Kitware open-source projects at http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Follow this link to subscribe/unsubscribe: http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake
