> When building the ORC c++ library, it will compile itself and its third party dependencies as static libraries. However, on linux, it is not possible to link these libraries to a shared object unless they are compiled with position independent code.
> I have added a BUILD_POSITION_INDEPENDENT_LIB option to the CMake file which is turned OFF by default. However, if a user needs to compile the static libraries with PIC, they are able to specify so by turning the option ON. This will effect liborc and all of its external dependencies.
