up vote

I've C++ project build using CMake and currently facing 1 issue, brief description below
lib_common -- STATIC library
lib common uses libconfig to load common configurations used in other project.
script_executor -- CMake project
It references above static library and also add external library libconfig, see below:
add_executable(script_executor)
target_link_libraries(script_executor "-lconfig++" "-llibcommon")
So I'm referencing llibcommon inside this project and llibcommon also uses libconfig which is already reference("-lconfig++") from this project.
But I'm still getting undefined reference to libconfig::Config::Config()
Environment details:
- UBuntu 16.04,
- cmake version 3.5.1,
- gcc version 5.4.0,
- g++ version 5.4.0
c++ cmake c++14

Please read Under what circumstances may I add “urgent” or other similar phrases to my question, in order to obtain faster answers? - the summary is that this is not an ideal way to address volunteers, and is probably counterproductive to obtaining answers. Please refrain from adding this to your questions.
