The same variable name controls whether or not you're searching for a static
or a shared boost library, however.
if ( WIN32 AND Boost_USE_STATIC_LIBS )
SET (Boost_LIB_PREFIX "lib")
endif()
...
# Support preference of static libs by adjusting CMAKE_FIND_LIBRARY_SUFFIXES
IF( Boost_USE_STATIC_LIBS )
SET( _boost_ORIG_CMAKE_FIND_LIBRARY_SUFFIXES
${CMAKE_FIND_LIBRARY_SUFFIXES})
IF(WIN32)
SET(CMAKE_FIND_LIBRARY_SUFFIXES .lib .a ${CMAKE_FIND_LIBRARY_SUFFIXES})
ELSE(WIN32)
SET(CMAKE_FIND_LIBRARY_SUFFIXES .a ${CMAKE_FIND_LIBRARY_SUFFIXES})
ENDIF(WIN32)
ENDIF( Boost_USE_STATIC_LIBS )
Shouldn't there be a difference between the two?
