More details: Windows 7, 64 bit, cmake 2.8.12.11 from cmake.org website. DLL built with gnatdll, import library built with MSVC's lib utility, static library built with the MSVC tool chain. I'll try to come up with a simple reproducer. I hope to do this completely with the MSVC tool chain as I don't expect people to jump through the hoops of configuring cmake to use an Ada tool chain. Unless Alan Irwin chimes in, that is. -- Powered by www.kitware.com Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Kitware offers various services to support the CMake community.
