# - Try to find how to link to the standard math library, if anything at all is needed to do. # On most platforms this is automatic, but for example it's not automatic on QNX. # # Once done this will define # # STANDARD_MATH_LIBRARY_FOUND - we found how to successfully link to the standard math library # STANDARD_MATH_LIBRARY - the name of the standard library that one has to link to. # -- this will be left empty if it's automatic (most platforms). # -- this will be set to "m" on platforms where one must explicitly # pass the "-lm" linker flag. # # Copyright (c) 2010 Benoit Jacob <jacob.benoit.1@gmail.com> # Redistribution and use is allowed according to the terms of the 2-clause BSD license. include(CheckCXXSourceCompiles) # a little test program for c++ math functions. # notice the std:: is required on some platforms such as QNX set(find_standard_math_library_test_program "#include<cmath> int main() { std::sin(0.0); std::log(0.0f); }") # first try compiling/linking the test program without any linker flags set(CMAKE_REQUIRED_FLAGS "") set(CMAKE_REQUIRED_LIBRARIES "") CHECK_CXX_SOURCE_COMPILES( "${find_standard_math_library_test_program}" standard_math_library_linked_to_automatically ) if(standard_math_library_linked_to_automatically) # the test program linked successfully without any linker flag. set(STANDARD_MATH_LIBRARY "") set(STANDARD_MATH_LIBRARY_FOUND TRUE) else() # the test program did not link successfully without any linker flag. # This is a very uncommon case that so far we only saw on QNX.
