Different target Names "blaze" and "Blaze" in Blaze_Import.cmake trigger cmake error

Hi,

I tried to include blaze into my project and ran into an issue.

I cloned the blaze repository via

git clone https://nckempke@bitbucket.org/blaze-lib/blaze.git

and afterwards tried to include it into my project via

list(APPEND CMAKE_MODULE_PATH ${BLAZE_LIBRARY_PATH}/cmake)
include(Blaze_Import)

and

Blaze_Import(ARGUMENTS)
target_link_libraries(TARGET Blaze)

as described in the wiki. I used the default suggested arguments slightly modified:

Blaze_Import(
        DEBUG
        BLAS on
        LAPACK on
        THREADING OpenMP
        CACHE_SIZE auto
        VECTORIZATION on
        STORAGE_ORDER rowMajor
        THRESHOLD_DMATDVECMULT 100000UL
        THRESHOLD_SMP_DVECDVECADD 1000000UL
)

Changes are link OpenMP, REQUIRED and DEBUG instead of QUIET.

This setup triggered the following cmake error:

-- Configuring blaze version .
-- Found OpenMP_CXX: -fopenmp (found version "4.5") 
-- Found OpenMP: TRUE (found version "4.5")  
CMake Error at blaze/cmake/Blaze_Import.cmake:244 (target_compile_options):

I checked the respective lines in the Blaze_Import.cmake file and found that indeed, while the library Blaze defined here has an upper case ‘B' the target_links here refer to blaze with a lower case 'b’.

‌

Blaze with lower case is actually used at multiple locations (e.g. here which then should all trigger cmake fails if used).

‌

I fixed that problem by renaming the lower case targets “blaze” to “Blaze”.

I might have done something wrong and attached a minimal example (including a dummy main, a dummy CMakeLists.txt and a folder “blaze” which is a placeholder for the git clone).

All the best,

Nils
