Adding a list of libraries in cmake

Question

I have a list of libraries that I an trying to add to target_link_libraries(). Is it possible?

 set(list1 x.a y.a z.a)
 target_link_libraries(main ${list1})

Is it a right way to do it?

Answer 1

Yes, that's the usual way to do this.

To be more precise, usually the list is set by first using find_library to get the x.a location first, and then putting them in a list.
