[CMake] Generating import libs

[Alexander.Camek at elektrobit.com]

Hi all,

First of all thanks for the great tool.

I am using here cmake in combination with GNAT (Ada) under Windows and MinGW. The support of Ada for cmake was made by Alan W. Irwin who made my life much easier.

As I wrote in an earlier mail to the list I noticed that Cmake generates during build static and dynamic libraries. Then I was corrected by others of the list because the libraries interpreted as static ones were originally the import libraries for some dlls.

After some inspection I noticed that these import libraries are generated automtically by cmake. But these are only generated for the dlls which are written in C or C++. 

My question is how can the same behaviour made for Ada, so that the import libraries are also generated automatically for the dlls written in Ada? Explicit it could be done by adding -Wl,--out-implib. But I want to avoid to add this for every Ada written dll, because it is compiler dependent and maybe some developer forgets to add this to his CMakeLists.txt.

Thanks for any hint you can give.

Best regards

Alexander Camek
