LDFLAGS — CMake 4.4.3 Documentation

# LDFLAGS

This is a CMake Environment Variable. Its initial value is taken from the calling process environment.

Will only be used by CMake on the first configuration to determine the default linker flags, after which the value for `LDFLAGS` is stored in the cache as `CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS_INIT`, `CMAKE_SHARED_LINKER_FLAGS_INIT`, and `CMAKE_MODULE_LINKER_FLAGS_INIT`. For any configuration run (including the first), the environment variable will be ignored if the equivalent `CMAKE_<TYPE>_LINKER_FLAGS_INIT` variable is defined.
