Thanks Robert, But it doesn’t seems to work when building for NVidia NSight Android platform using Visual Studio IDE. Is there a way to add custom flags before and after the flags set by target_link_libraries? I tried CMAKE_LINK_EXE_FLAGS but it doesn’t work. Thanks!

I believe what you want to do is bring the libraries in as imported targets and set the target property IMPORTED_LINK_INTERFACE_MULTIPLICITY ( http://www.cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.0/prop_tgt/IMPORTED_LINK_INTERFACE_MULTIPLICITY.html ). By default the value should be 2 which means that we will list all static libraries twice, but you might need to increase the value. I would also read the resolution of bug 14463 (http://public.kitware.com/Bug/view.php?id=14463) for a quick explanation of how the target_link_libraries order determines the static link ordering.

Adding these libs using target_link_libraries should be working just fine but unfortunately these libs have a bunch of circular dependencies, so it fails. In the makefile, we link with these libs using this syntax: -Wl,--start-group …libs… -Wl,--end-group …so that the linker is able to correctly find all symbols. What’s the proper way to deal with this using CMake? I tried to add the group flags to target_link_libraries but it does not work. Thanks!
