[CMake] set_target_properties called twice

[Eric Clark]

Frank,

Thank you for such a quick reply. However, this is not working either. It is correctly adding the value to my list for that property, but now it is using it as the whole value in Visual Studio. Here is what I have now for the first call:

set_target_properties(${PROJECT_NAME} PROPERTIES LINK_FLAGS "/ENTRY:\"mainCRTStartup\"")

And, now for the second call, I have this:

set_property(TARGET ${PROJECT_NAME} APPEND PROPERTY LINK_FLAGS "/INCREMENTAL:NO")

But, when I open Visual Studio, instead of setting them both, it now has "mainCRTStartup;/INCREMENTAL:NO" as the property value. Is there something I am doing wrong here? By the way, I tried both APPEND and APPEND_STRING, the only difference is the semi-colon goes away with APPEND_STRING.

Thanks,
Eric

I think this is intended. The semantics are the same as the set function. You can use set_property with the APPEND or APPEND_STRING option to do what you want.

Hello,

I am currently having trouble with set_target_properties(...). I am trying to call it twice to set two different values for the same property. The first call I make looks like this:

set_target_properties(${PROJECT_NAME} PROPERTIES LINK_FLAGS "/ENTRY:mainCRTStartup")

Then, I call it again with the following signature:

set_target_properties(${PROJECT_NAME} PROPERTIES LINK_FLAGS "/INCREMENTAL:NO")

When I do this, the second call seems to override the previous call. Can anyone tell me if this is intended or a bug? And, if so, does anyone know of a work-around for this?

Thank You,
Eric
