Hi
I’m trying to have a setup for the armcc compiler from Keil/ARM . The compiler is supported well but I get some problem linking libraries.
The correct way of using the linker with test.c and sample.lib is
`armlink.exe test.o sample.lib ...`
But if I’m using target\_link\_libraries here what I get in Ninja command:
`armlink.exe test.o -l sample.lib`
and armlink report an error , the -l flag is not recognized.
How can I link correctly my libs ?

I’m not sure of our status on Keil/ARM support. I remember there being old discussion about it, but I don’t see anything in the repository right now.

See [CMake Issue 19357](https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/-/issues/19357) for discussion of Keil/ARM support.
