GNUtoMSΒΆ
Convert GNU import library (.dll.a) to MS format (.lib).
When linking a shared library or executable that exports symbols using
GNU tools on Windows (MinGW/MSYS) with Visual Studio installed convert
the import library (.dll.a) from GNU to MS format (.lib). Both import
libraries will be installed by install(TARGETS) and exported by
install(EXPORT) and export() to be linked
by applications with either GNU- or MS-compatible tools.
If the variable CMAKE_GNUtoMS is set when a target is created its
value is used to initialize this property. The variable must be set
prior to the first command that enables a language such as project()
or enable_language(). CMake provides the variable as an option to the
user automatically when configuring on Windows with GNU tools.
