Summary0010803: Shared library or module Fortran-only targets do not link correctly in VIsual Studio 2008
DescriptionWhen building a shared library or module target consisting of only Fortran sources with the Visual Studio 9 2008 generator, the final link line is missing the /DLL flag. This attempts to link the target as an executable, which fails with an error about unresolved symbols (usually __MAIN_) or a missing entry point.
Steps To Reproduce
Additional InformationEnvironment:
Visual Studio 2008
Intel Visual Fortran 11.1

Using "Visual Studio 9 2008" generator

Attached is a sample project that will reproduce the issue, along with a build log from a failing run.

The attached patch fixes the issue by making sure that the VFLinkerTool emitted for a Fortran-only DLL project has the LinkDLL attribute set.

Brad, do you know if this is still an issue with git 'master'...?

This commit:

  http://cmake.org/gitweb?p=cmake.git;a=commitdiff;h=22aec406 [^]

fixes the RuntimeLibrary attribute but AFAIK we don't set LinkDLL yet.
