Hi,
We're experiencing two problems with creating static libraries through cmake on
our AIX system.
The first one is that a cmake based build environment will come up with 64-bit
XCOFF, but ar and friends won't play ball unless you add -X64. I suppose this
issue has just been overlooked and is in fact minor.
The other problem is that even though I have added the below workaround
referenced in a thread from July '08, "ar cr" will choke on the amount or
objects I'm feeding it. I'm sure this is a problem with the ar itself and not
cmake, but I would be interested to learn of a possible workaround. It works
fine for smaller archives.
Thanks,
Arjen
