Hi Michael, Thanks for your repsonse but I need the required DLLs to copy them in a post-build step. So I need the information which libaries are required for executing something. E.g., in your example
add_library(a ${A_SRCS}) add_library(b ${B_SRCS}) target_link_libraries(b a) add_executable(c ${C_SRCS}) target_link_libraries(c b) I`d like to have something like GET_TARGET_PROPERTY(LIBS c IMPORTED_LINK_DEPENDENT_LIBRARIES) and then LIBS would contain "C:\project\a.dll;C:\project\b.dll". I also tried it with IMPORTED_LINK_DEPENDENT_LIBRARIES but that gives me an empty variable. Hopefully, this made my problem clearer.

CMake remembers for you: add_library(a ${A_SRCS}) add_library(b ${B_SRCS}) target_link_libraries(b a) add_executable(c ${C_SRCS}) target_link_libraries(c b) As you see in the last line, c is mentioned to link against b. CMake, however, remembers that b also links against a, and consequently also adds a to the list of libraries to link against.
