CMake：检查 static C++ 库的可用性

Question

我正在尝试静态链接多线程二进制文件。 如果 CMake 可以警告 static 库丢失，那就太好了。

注意：我知道解决方案是安装 static 库（Fedora 31 中的 libstdc++-static 和 glibc-static，如果这对任何人都有帮助的话），我只希望 CMake 报告缺少的库，而不是在构建时报告.

（作为旁注，有没有更好的方法来支持 static 链接？目前我有一些平台相关的东西可以在我们的目标系统中支持它，我还没有发现任何更便携的东西......）

这是一个示例 CMakeLists.txt：

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.17)

project(test)

set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD 17)

add_link_options(-static)
find_package(Threads REQUIRED)

add_executable(test)
target_link_libraries(test PRIVATE Threads::Threads)

target_sources(test PRIVATE test.cpp)

这是 output：

正如所评论的，为 CMake 中的缺失库（在编译/链接之前）产生错误的一种方法是使用find_library() 。 如果CMake找不到具体的库，使用库变量时会报错：

# Define a variable my_pthread_static_lib to store the library, if found.
find_library(my_pthread_static_lib libpthread.a)

add_executable(test)
# Error will occur here during CMake configuration, if not found
target_link_libraries(test PRIVATE ${my_pthread_static_lib})

如果未找到my_pthread_static_lib库，则会出现此错误：

CMake Error: The following variables are used in this project, but they are set to NOTFOUND.
Please set them or make sure they are set and tested correctly in the CMake files:
my_pthread_static_lib
    linked by target "test" in directory /path/to/CMake/file
