James E. King, III commented on THRIFT-4412:
--------------------------------------------
You may want to explicitly add -L<prefix path> to force the linker to look
there before going to the system library paths. Let me know if that resolves
the issue.
> thrift cmake does not use absolute library path, linking system libraries

> Key: THRIFT-4412
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-4412
> Project: Thrift
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Build Process
> Affects Versions: 0.10.0, 0.11.0
> Reporter: Mario Emmenlauer
>
> I build thrift using cmake on Linux. It works generally very good on many
> platforms (I've tested Linux, Windows and MacOSX extensively). But one issue
> is plaguing me. I have my own custom boost libraries, libevent and others. I
> set {{CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH}} to their install directory. This generally also
> works well, and cmake finds the libraries. However in the final Makefile, the
> linker command uses {{-lxxx}} for library {{xxx}} instead of the usual cmake
> absolute path {{/a/b/c/libxxx.so}}. This is a problem because {{ld}} suddenly
> prefers the system libraries over my custom builds. This in turn breaks the
> build for me.
> I do not have this problem with any other cmake builds. And I tried various
> workarounds to force cmake to use the absolute path, but failed. Did somebody
> maybe add this on purpose?
