| CMAKE_STATIC_LINKER_FLAGS | |
| ------------------------- | |
| Flags to be used to create static libraries. These flags will be passed | |
| to the archiver when creating a static library. | |
| See also :variable:`CMAKE_STATIC_LINKER_FLAGS_<CONFIG>`. | |
| .. note:: | |
| Static libraries do not actually link. They are essentially archives | |
| of object files. The use of the name "linker" in the name of this | |
| variable is kept for compatibility. |
