According to the CMake docs for an OBJECT library called, let's say,
'xxx', the reference to that OBJECT library is through
$<TARGET_OBJECTS:xxx>. I understand this but I am curious about the
reason for such syntax. After all a STATIC or SHARED library 'xxx' you
can just use xxx to refer to the library. Why the difference in CMake
syntax reference between OBJECT libraries added with the add_library
command and STATIC or SHARED libraries added with the add_library command ?
