Currently the
fmt
CMake target exports-std=c++11
as part of its interface; Meaning any project that links tofmt
has the-std=c++11
added to its compilation. However this will override the-std=<ver>
flag provided by that project. This breaks projects that use C++14 or C++1z. In general I think it's bad style for projects to force a specific dialect, or any compile flags, upon its users.This patch fixes the issue by making
-std=c++11
a private flag offmt
. This prevent it from infecting downstream users.
