Hello Christian,

thanks for the interest, let me explain:

## In your CMake file you could to do this:
...
include (VisibilityDefinitions)
add_visibility_definitions(PREFIX PROJECT)
...
##

// In your project source, this:
...
class PROJECT_EXPORTS ExampleClass {...};
...
//

It is really simple, the function will just add these
definitions, through CMake of course, in compile time like this:

g++ -DPROJECT_EXPORTS=__attribute__((visibility("default")))
    -DPROJECT_PRIVATE=__attribute__((visibility("hidden")))
    src/ExampleClass.cpp

But of course you won't see anything like this while compiling because
CMake shows only:
"Building CXX object CMakeFiles/example.dir/src/ExampleClass.cpp.o"

Also, by the signature of the function you could custom these
definitions just like you want them, like this:

add_visibility_definitions(PREFIX _MyLib
                           EXPORT_SUFFIX Export
                           PRIVATE_SUFFIX Private)

And in your source code:

class _MyLibExports ExampleClass {...};
class _MyLibPrivate ExampleClass {...};

Kind regards,
Hilton
