[Cmake] Problems with Library Dependencies

[Bernhard Zach]

Are there plans for changing this behavior?

We would really need such a feature, because our source is too big to build
it all in one Makefile.

At least a FIND_LIBRARY/ADD_DEPENDENCIES combination should work.

Thanks for your help,
Bernhard

CMake only depends on libraries that it can build.   You can
link other libraries, but right now it does not depend on them.
So, if there is not an ADD_LIBRARY in the project, the library
will not be in the DEPEND_LIBS.
