Summary

0015940: There doesn't appear to be a cross-platform way to set flags to be used at compile time but not at link time

Description

It appears that if a flag is added to CMAKE_C_FLAGS, it will be used not only at compile time but also at link time, at least for some platform/compiler combinations.

Many such flags are, at best, not helpful at link time, and clutter the command line used for linking. Some might also not work at link time.

Unix make, and autotools, keep compiler flags (CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS/etc.) and linker flags (LDFLAGS) separate. CMake should provide a way to do the same.
