Hi
This is small question I had when I started working with PoDoFo.
Is it deliberate that you have to set PODOFO_BUILD_SHARED=false to build shared
dll in windows?
The cmake command in the section "CMake builds on Windows with Visual Studio"
has the argument -DPODOFO_BUILD_SHARED:BOOL=FALSE. The build will generate
shared dlls.
I haven't written any cmake file so far. The lines 53 to 54of CMakeLists in the
root directory is as follows
IF(DEFINED PODOFO_BUILD_SHARED AND NOT DEFINED PODOFO_BUILD_STATIC)
SET(PODOFO_BUILD_SHARED NOT ${PODOFO_BUILD_SHARED})
ENDIF(DEFINED PODOFO_BUILD_SHARED AND NOT DEFINED PODOFO_BUILD_STATIC)
I believe this should be
IF(DEFINED PODOFO_BUILD_SHARED AND NOT DEFINED PODOFO_BUILD_STATIC)
SET(PODOFO_BUILD_STATIC NOT ${PODOFO_BUILD_SHARED})
ENDIF(DEFINED PODOFO_BUILD_SHARED AND NOT DEFINED PODOFO_BUILD_STATIC)
Also as per readme file, on windows <<By default only the shared library will
be built. If you want a static library, just disable generation of the shared
library with the extra argument to cmake:>>
But this is not the case, by default it is static library. I think windows
users will prefer shared dll. The lines starting 240 in CMakeLists set the
build to static library if both variables are set.
Regards
Ali
