Failing SENTRY_LIBRARY_TYPE string check when building static library

[BharatRajT]

Description

Value of SENTRY_LIBRARY_TYPE is set as "STATIC" when building static library but it is compared with "static" in case-sensitive way (Current CMakeLists.txt line 387) when linking libraries to sentry. The libraries are linked with sentry using PRIVATE keyword even when building static library thus leading to linking errors with winhttp and dbghelp libraries.

# apply platform libraries to sentry library
if(SENTRY_LIBRARY_TYPE STREQUAL "static")
    target_link_libraries(sentry PUBLIC ${_SENTRY_PLATFORM_LIBS})
else()
    target_link_libraries(sentry PRIVATE ${_SENTRY_PLATFORM_LIBS})
endif()

When does the problem happen

• During build
• During run-time
• When capturing a hard crash

Environment

• OS: Windows 10, 64-bit
• Compiler: MSVC 19
• CMake version and config: [e.g. 3.20.21032501, SENTRY_BACKEND=crashpad

Steps To Reproduce

cmake -B build -A Win32 -D SENTRY_BUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF -D SENTRY_BUILD_RUNTIMESTATIC=ON -D CMAKE_MSVC_RUNTIME_LIBRARY=MultiThreaded -D SENTRY_BACKEND=crashpad -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -S .
