Hello,
I have a project which is supposed to be built as static and dynamic one.
Visual studio has this annoying behaviour to add always a debug and a release
directoriy to the output directory.
So this is fixed by prefixing the path with ../
IF( CMAKE_GENERATOR MATCHES "Visual Studio" )
# this prevents generation of /debug or /release directories
SET_TARGET_PROPERTIES( ${PROJECTNAME} PROPERTIES PREFIX "../" )
ENDIF( CMAKE_GENERATOR MATCHES "Visual Studio" )
ok, this was easy. The static lib is now indeed generated in the desired
location BUT when it comes to the dynamic compilation the DLL is placed
correctly in the output directory BUT the import library is always put in a
debug or release subdirectory which is quite annoying.
This behaviour can be controlled in Visual Studio by modifying the /IMPLIB
command.
How can I do this in my cmake project? The aim is not to link another project
to this dynamic library but to create the .lib in the same directory where the
.dll file is.
I have tried things mentioned here: http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/CMake_2.6_Notes
eg:
set_property(TARGET bar PROPERTY IMPORTED_LOCATION c:/path/to/bar.dll)
set_property(TARGET bar PROPERTY IMPORTED_IMPLIB c:/path/to/bar.lib)
but this looks like an executable gets linkd to a library which is not what I
want.
Thanks
Sam
