In the meantime, I am getting a PDB file by listing the source files for the add_library(commoncpp SHARED <srcs> <def file>), but when I run in the visual studio debugger, it says there are no symbols loaded for the DLL. The PDB path recorded in the DLL points to the right PDB file, but the PDB file typically is larger than the DLL. but in this case it is not. Is that because I am not gettin gall of thde bug information, and a later version of cmake will guarantee that we get the right information?
