I'm using CMake for a project that comes in two versions, one of which requires -lglapi and the other does not.

So far the lines we used look like that:

SET(CMAKE_C_FLAGS "-O3 -xSSE3 -restrict -lpthread -lX11 -ldrm") SET(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "-O3 -xSSE3 -restrict -lpthread -lX11 -ldrm") 

I added an if statement in my CMakeList.txt exactly after those lines:

if(SINGLE_MODE) SET(CMAKE_C_FLAGS ${CMAKE_C_FLAGS} " -lglapi") SET(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS ${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} " -lglapi") endif(SINGLE_MODE) 

The SINGLE_MODE variable is defined a little up. When I use the message command to display the content of the flag variables it looks alright:

-O3 -xSSE3 -restrict -lpthread -lX11 -ldrm -lglapi 

But when I start compiling I am running into a compile error. Using the verbose mode I realized that in the compiler call it looks like that:

-O3 -xSSE3 -restrict -lpthread -lX11 -ldrm; -lglapi 

I.e. somehow a semicolon got added before adding the -lglapi to the list.

Did anyone here encounter a similar issue and knows a way to fix this issue? I've googled quite a while and studied the CMake manual but couldn't see what I did wrong here.

Thanks, Tobias
