Vendor aws-sdk-cpp, CMake, Issues

[ccaa-games]

How do I properly vendor the aws-sdk-cpp? I've tried several different versions of the following code, but I just can't get it to work.

Root CMakeLists.txt

IF (WIN32)
    set(CMAKE_MSVC_RUNTIME_LIBRARY "MultiThreadedDLL$<$<CONFIG:Debug>:Debug>")
ELSE()
ENDIF()

# aws-sdk-cpp
set(BUILD_ONLY "ec2;s3;s3-crt;ebs;ecs;ecr;elasticloadbalancing;elasticloadbalancingv2" CACHE STRING "AWS SDK components to build" FORCE)
set(ENABLE_UNITY_BUILD ON CACHE BOOL "Enable unity build for aws-sdk-cpp" FORCE)
set(BUILD_SHARED_LIBS OFF CACHE BOOL "" FORCE)
if(WIN32)
    set(BUILD_SHARED_LIBS OFF CACHE BOOL "" FORCE)
    set(AWS_STATIC_MSVC_RUNTIME_LIBRARY OFF CACHE BOOL "Use static MSVC runtime" FORCE)
ENDIF()
add_subdirectory(external/aws-sdk-cpp)
# // end aws-sdk-cpp

add_subdirectory(src/app/project_a)`

Project A CMakeLists

target_link_libraries(${PROJECT_NAME} aws-sdk-cpp-core aws-sdk-cpp-ec2 ... )

Toolchain: MSVC

How do I properly vendor the aws-sdk-cpp?

what do you exactly mean in this context? are you trying to consume it via git submodules? via a installed executable? via cmake fetch cotent?

Is there a minimal reproducible example you can create that doesnt work but you think i it should?
