Hi Yann, I have no idea what LINKER_SCATTER_FILE does, but...
if( TARGET <bla> ) is a check that will evaluate to true if a target named <bla> *exists*. In this configuration neither "target_1" or "target_2" exist at the point when you run this check. So LINKER_SCATTER_FILE will always be set to "file_2". I think you're mixing what happens when configuring your build, and when actually executing it. In this setup you seem to always want to build both target_1 and target_2. So you'll need to set some property on these targets to assign the different "scatter files" to them. (I have absolutely no idea what a "scatter file" is supposed to be...) Could you elaborate on what you're really trying to do?
