Hello, The libraries I developing can be used as a shared libraries, static libraries or header-only libraries. I want to let the users to: - install all three variants side by side; - choice what variant of library to use for linkage. I see 2 options here: 1. use different config files. For example, foo-config.cmake (corresponds to shared library "foo"), foo_static-config.cmake (corresponds to static library "foo"), foo_interface-config.cmake (corresponds to header-only library "foo"). In this case users can consume appropriate variant of "foo" by using find_package(foo CONFIGS <config>) and then target_link_libraries(bar foo) or target_link_libraries(bar foo_static) or target_link_libraries(bar INTERFACE foo_interface); 2. use different packages. For example, "foo", "foo_static", "for_interface". In this case users can consume libraries by using find_package(foo) or find_package(foo_static) or find_package(foo_interface) and then target_link_libraries(bar foo) or target_link_libraries(bar INTERFACE foo).
What option is preferable? Or is there are any other options available? -- 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.
