mysqlx xdevapi cmake undefined reference compilation error

Question

I am trying to import mysql connector to my c++ project but I am getting errors at the linking stage. This is my CMakeLists.txt:

  add_executable(app
    src/main.cpp
  )


  add_library(mysql STATIC IMPORTED)
  set_property(TARGET mysql PROPERTY
    IMPORTED_LOCATION ${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/src/mysql-connector/lib64/libmysqlcppconn8-static.a)

  target_include_directories(
    app
    PRIVATE ${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/src/mysql-connector/include
  )
  target_link_libraries(
    app
    PRIVATE mysql
    PRIVATE crypto
    PRIVATE ssl
    PRIVATE rt
    PRIVATE resolv
  )

Here is the output from the compilation stage:

when importing #include <mysqlx/xdevapi.h> . Any help would be much appreciated.

@user63898 its been a long time but i think I solved it using `add_definitions(-D_GLIBCXX_USE_CXX11_ABI=0)` in my cmake — christk, Jan 13 '23 at 22:13
