How do I correctly pass CMake list (semicolon-sep) of flags to set_target_properties?
===

CMake lists are essentially just semicolon-separated strings, but if you pass such a variable to a command, it does get expanded into multiple arguments - for example, 

    set(FLAGS f1 f2 f3)
    # now FLAGS == 'f1;f2;f3'
    add_custom_command(
      ...
      COMMAND my_cmd ${FLAGS}
      ...
    )

will correctly call `my_cmd f1 f2 f3`.

Now if I do this with 

    set_target_properties(
      myTarget PROPERTIES
      LINK_FLAGS  "${LD_FLAGS}"
    )

the expansion does not occur, and I end up with a single LD_FLAG that contains semicolons -- useless, instead of expanding it into a space-separated string.

Is there any way to make it so that when I pass a list to the LINK_FLAGS property (or any property that is), it gets expanded into multiple arguments rather than just one?

Thanks,
