Describe the bug When I try to statically link jsoncpp into my project, I get the following error message:

[  3%] Linking CXX executable ../../../../bin/jsontestrunner_exe
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -ljsoncpp_static: No such file or directory

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Add the following to CMakeLists.txt file: 
    set(BUILD_SHARED_LIBS False)
set(CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS "-static-libstdc++ -static")
  2. Run cd build && cmake .. && cmake --build .

Expected behavior Have a statically linked library
