Bug 140497 – [CMAKE] Fix cmake warning

• Component: New Bugs
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Gyuyoung Kim]

r173155 already tried to fix cmake warning though, the warning is still exist. CMAKE_LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES seems to cause this warning. INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES contains the list of transitive link dependencies, and CMAKE_LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES can override the INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES property when CMP0022 is not set. CMake warns this override. To avoid it, EFL port doesn't set CMAKE_LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES.

I think we should probably remove that for all ports. We seem to be settings LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES explicitly on each library anyway (which is probably what leads to the warning?).

I didn't check if other ports also have same issue. That's why I only disabled to set it only for EFL port. As mentioned in ChangeLog, INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES variable seems to be already set on each library. It seems CMP0022 policy of cmake warns that CMAKE_LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES can override INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES on some targets. If other ports also have same problem, I think my latest patch looks good.



Build warning is as below,

CMake Warning (dev) in Source/JavaScriptCore/CMakeLists.txt:
  Policy CMP0022 is not set: INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES defines the link
  interface.  Run "cmake --help-policy CMP0022" for policy details.  Use the
  cmake_policy command to set the policy and suppress this warning.

  Target "JavaScriptCore" has an INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES property which
  differs from its LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES properties.

Please indicate in the changelog that that is already set for individual library targets, thanks!
