Hi all,
I am trying to port a project using CMake 2.6 from Linux to
Windows. The
project build works without problems under Linux. However when
trying to
build the project inside Visual Studio 8 after having generated the
project files using CMake, no import libraries are generated.
The library build step is specified by using
ADD_LIBRARY(Base SHARED EXCLUDE_FROM_ALL ${LocalSrc})
which I would expect to generate rules to create the DLL AND the
corresponding import library. The DLL is built, but the import
library
is missing. Looking at the build log file in Visual Studio, there
is no
call to lib.exe, which I would expect.
I am not a Windows specialist, so I may be missing something simple
completely.
Any help would be appreciated.
cmake itself does not do anything to create an import lib. This is
all done by the linker. If it finds symbols which are exported, it
automatically creates the import lib.
So it looks like you don't export any symbols.
Here is a link:

while gcc exports everything by default, visualc++ needs
__declspec(dllexport) keyword. Or you need a .def file, but this is
also explained in the link above.
