I have different projects (executables and libraries) that use the same internal libraries. Each project and internal library folder is located in the same base folder.
Let's say I have a shell tool named shelltool1
and shelltool2
that use lib1
. They are located in
/path/to/base/shelltool1
/path/to/base/shelltool2
/path/to/base/lib1
Do I build the executable/library in the respective folders and link them in the CMakeLists.txt inside /path/to/base ?
So my idea would be
base: CMakeLists.txt
add_subdirectory(shelltool1)
add_subdirectory(shelltool2)
add_subdirectory(lib1)
target_link_libraries(shelltool1 lib1)
target_link_libraries(shelltool2 lib1)
shelltool1: CMakeLists.txt
add_executable(shelltool1 ${SRC})
shelltool2: CMakeLists.txt
add_executable(shelltool2 ${SRC})
lib1: CMakeLists.txt
add_library(lib1 ${SRC})
Is this sensible, or will I run into troubles?
