Two things with convenience libraries. Part of this may be in the FAQ: On linux, compile the code fPIC or fpic (slightly different meanings).
So for library hello: SET_TARGET_PROPERTIES( hello PROPERTIES OUTPUT_NAME hello CLEAN_DIRECT_OUTPUT 1 COMPILE_FLAGS -fPIC ) where hello is the name of your static convenience library. Make sure all symbols get put into the so: target_link_libraries(mywrap -Wl,-whole-archive hello -Wl,-no-whole-archive) where mywrap is the name of the shared library, and hello is the static library you want attached to it. If you are attaching multiple libraries, linker order may be important.
