[cmake-developers] Shared libraries

[REIX, Tony]

Hi,


On AIX, when building MongoC 1.11, cmake 3.11.4 generates lib*.so files and lib*.a files which contain .o files.

On AIX, we should get libraries lib*.a containing the lib*.so file.

I've tried to use:

    -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON              \
    -DBUILD_STATIC_LIBS=OFF \
    -DCMAKE_C_CREATE_SHARED_LIBRARY=ON  \
    -DCMAKE_CXX_CREATE_SHARED_LIBRARY=ON
and I see that, for MariaDB, someone has tried with:

    -DDISABLE_SHARED=OFF


None seems to work.


Which CMake variable should I use for asking CMAKE to generate shared libraries rather than static ones: lib*.a file containing .so files rather than .o files.


Thanks


Cordialement,
