target_compile_options(${project_name} INTERFACE ${LINKER_FLAG}) |
From my understanding target_compile_options can be replaced by the more appropriate target_link_options.
Motivation
Functionally there's no difference, but adding linker-specific flags to the compilation step will raise warnings e.g. clang: error: argument unused during compilation: '-fuse-ld=mold' [-Werror,-Wunused-command-line-argument] in certain setups.
Example from CI in a project of mine. Treating warnings as errors means this harmless warning caused CI to fail.
Using target_link_options resolved it.
Thank you for sharing and maintaining this template project, it is a tremendous help!
