Steve, While reviewing this topic I ran the ExportImport test to look for generator expressions in a link interface property. I do not see any. The test C++ code appears to verify that libraries are linked but it is compiled into a static library as added by this commit:
http://cmake.org/gitweb?p=cmake.git;a=commitdiff;h=894f52f3#patch7 Therefore it never really links. If I change add_library to add_executable then the test fails with /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -ltestLibsDepends If I fix the typo (s/Libs/Lib/) then it fails with deps_iface.cpp:(.text+0x11): undefined reference to `testLibDepends()' deps_iface.cpp:(.text+0x1f): undefined reference to `TestLibLibraryRequired::foo()' because the library is not actually linked. Please take a look.
