target_link_libraries and INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES property

Question

In this snippet:

project(hello LANGUAGES C VERSION 0.0.1)
add_library(a INTERFACE)
target_include_directories(a INTERFACE /us         


        

Answer 1

target_link_libraries does not add any directory, it adds the specific library that you've included. Use make VERBOSE=1 to see the complete command. You might be able to get the library output directory by reading the build directory or the library output name.
