This is another one of those things that has not been implemented in CMake but which has been brought up before. Implementing this on UNIX would be easy but I'm not sure on Win32 since you couldn't simply rely on file extension to determine if it's a static or shared library. http://www.cmake.org/Bug/view.php?id=1643 This workaround may help: http://www.cmake.org/pipermail/cmake/2006-September/011096.html - -- Philip Lowman -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFG06FCe0tOktX6RKkRAoFBAJ0ZL4l5Yj+W8YhkFLZOFfdZtlwe/gCaA12F 5ScONFBL950UL0/GZu2ueO8= =ZMNW -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ CMake mailing list CMake@cmake.org http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake
