"Adds a library target called <name> to be built from the "

|

"The <name> corresponds to the logical target name and must be "

"globally unique within a project. "
|
||||
"The actual file name of the library built is constructed based on "
|

"conventions of the native platform "
|

"(such as lib<name>.a or <name>.lib)."
|

"\n"
|
||||
"STATIC, SHARED, or MODULE may be given to specify the type of library "
|
||||
"to be created. "
|
||||
"STATIC libraries are archives of object files for use when linking "
|
||||
"other targets. "
|
||||
"SHARED libraries are linked dynamically and loaded at runtime. "
|
||||
"MODULE libraries are plugins that are not linked into other targets "
|
||||
"but may be loaded dynamically at runtime using dlopen-like "
|
||||
"functionality. "
|
||||
"If no type is given explicitly the type is STATIC or SHARED based "
|

"on whether the current value of the variable BUILD_SHARED_LIBS is "
|
||||
"true. "
|
||||
"For SHARED and MODULE libraries the POSITION_INDEPENDENT_CODE "

"target property is set to TRUE automatically."

"\n"
|

"By default the library file will be created in the build tree "

"directory corresponding to the source tree directory in which "

"the command was invoked. "
|

"See documentation of the ARCHIVE_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY, "
|

"LIBRARY_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY, and RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY "
|

"target properties to change this location. "

"See documentation of the OUTPUT_NAME target property to change "

" [GLOBAL])\n"
|

"An IMPORTED library target references a library file located "

"outside the project. "
|

"No rules are generated to build it. "
|
||||
"The target name has scope in the directory in which it is created "
|
||||
"and below, but the GLOBAL option extends visibility. "
|
||||
"It may be referenced like any target built within the project. "
|
||||
"IMPORTED libraries are useful for convenient reference from "
|
||||
"commands like target_link_libraries. "
|
||||
"Details about the imported library are specified by setting "
|
||||
"properties whose names begin in \"IMPORTED_\". "
|
||||
"The most important such property is IMPORTED_LOCATION "
|
||||
"(and its per-configuration version IMPORTED_LOCATION_<CONFIG>) "

"which specifies the location of the main library file on disk. "

"\n"
|

"The signature\n"
|
||||
" add_library(<name> OBJECT <src>...)\n"
|
||||
"creates a special \"object library\" target. "
|
||||
"An object library compiles source files but does not archive or link "
|
||||
"their object files into a library. "
|
||||
"Instead other targets created by add_library or add_executable may "
|
||||
"reference the objects using an expression of the form "
|
||||
"$<TARGET_OBJECTS:objlib> as a source, where \"objlib\" is the "
|
||||
"object library name. "
|
||||
"For example:\n"
|
||||
" add_library(... $<TARGET_OBJECTS:objlib> ...)\n"
|
||||
" add_executable(... $<TARGET_OBJECTS:objlib> ...)\n"
|
||||
"will include objlib's object files in a library and an executable "
|
||||
"along with those compiled from their own sources. "
|
||||
"Object libraries may contain only sources (and headers) that compile "
|
||||
"to object files. "
|
||||
"They may contain custom commands generating such sources, but not "
|
||||
"PRE_BUILD, PRE_LINK, or POST_BUILD commands. "
|
||||
"Object libraries cannot be imported, exported, installed, or linked."
|
||||
" "
|
||||
"Some native build systems may not like targets that have only "
|
||||
"object files, so consider adding at least one real source file "
|
||||
"to any target that references $<TARGET_OBJECTS:objlib>."
|
||||
"\n"
|
||||
"The signature\n"
|
||||
" add_library(<name> ALIAS <target>)\n"
|
||||
"creates an alias, such that <name> can be used to refer to <target> "
|
||||
"in subsequent commands. The <name> does not appear in the generated "
|
||||
"buildsystem as a make target. The <target> may not be an IMPORTED "
|
||||
"target or an ALIAS. Alias targets can be used as linkable targets, "
|
||||
"targets to read properties from. They can also be tested for "
|
||||
"existance with the "
|
||||
"regular if(TARGET) subcommand. The <name> may not be used to modify "
|
||||
"properties of <target>, that is, it may not be used as the operand of "
|
||||
"set_property, set_target_properties, target_link_libraries etc. An "

"ALIAS target may not be installed of exported."
|

"\n"

"The signature\n"

" add_library(<name> INTERFACE)\n"

"creates an interface target. An interface target does not directly "

"create build output, though it may have properties set on it and it "
|
||||
"may be installed, exported and imported. Typically the INTERFACE_* "
|
||||
"properties are populated on the interface target using the "
|
||||
"set_property(), target_link_libraries(), target_include_directories() "
|
||||
"and target_compile_defintions() commands, and then it is used as an "
