[CMake] add_library/add_executable ordering

[Hai Nguyen]

Hi,

I'm a bit unclear as to how CMake determines the order of what to build
first. In one project I have:

add_library( libA ... )
add_executable( ExecA ... )
target_link_libraries( ExecA libA )

the build order is: libA and then ExecA.

Yet in another project i have:

add_library( libB ... )
add_executable( ExecB ... )
target_link_libraries( ExecB libB )

but the build order now is: ExecB, libB

I'm getting link errors because libB doesn't exist yet. If I comment out the
ExecB stuff, it builds libB.

Can someone give me a clue on what criteria CMake is using to determine what
builds first?

Thanks,
-Hai
