Hey, I have a question. I have a project, which is compiled on two different build machines with ninja (trunk and branch). The CMakeLists.txt is the same when it comes to a part, where the VERSION and SOVERSION part is set through the function 'set_target_properties'.
But on the first build machines, setting the VERSION and SOVERSION works, on the other machine it does not work. On the second machine (where the build fails), I recently upgraded CMake to 3.5 (I compiled and installed it on my own). The first build machine has CMake with version 2.8.11 (installed from local package manager yum). I've tried some things till I got a minimum example, where I could reproduce the error. The problem is calling add_library with MODULE. So, first the CMakeLists.txt ===== cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8) project(test1) set(SOURCES func.cpp) set(VER1 "1") set(VER2 "2") set(VER3 "3") add_library(${PROJECT_NAME} MODULE ${SOURCES}) set_target_properties(${PROJECT_NAME} PROPERTIES LINK_FLAGS -Wl,-Bsymbolic VERSION ${VER1}.${VER2}.${VER3} SOVERSION 0) ===== When running this script with the commands on the first build machine (CMake 2.8.11 / this is also reproducable with Unix Makefiles generator) > cmake . && make && ls then I get this > CMakeCache.txt > cmake_install.cmake > func.cpp > libtest1.so.0 > Makefile > CMakeFiles > CMakeLists.txt > libtest1.so > libtest1.so.1.2.3 (which seems ok to me) But running the same CMakeLists.txt on the second build machine (CMake 3.5), then I get this: > CMakeCache.txt > CMakeFiles > cmake_install.cmake > CMakeLists.txt > func.cpp > libtest1.so > Makefile Is this an error? Or what should I add to the CMakeLists.txt on the second build machine, to get the same output (i.e. libtest1.so.0 libtest1.so.1.2.3)? -- Powered by www.kitware.com Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Kitware offers various services to support the CMake community.
