Summary:                    TI toolchain should follow TI's library naming
convention
Description: 
CMake currently follows unix naming convention on Unix naming static libraries
lib*.a. TI however goes with the same convention on Windows and Unix naming
libraries *.lib. The same naming is used in all libraries: runtime libraries
provided with toolchain, additional TI libraries like DSPLink, DSPLib and
others.

My suggestion is to follow TI convention for naming libraries by including:

set(CMAKE_STATIC_LIBRARY_PREFIX)
set(CMAKE_STATIC_LIBRARY_SUFFIX ".lib")

possibly in a new file, called Modules/Compiler/TI.cmake
