[CMake] dependency problem

[Yifei Li]

Thank you for reply.

I already tried that.  I think the problem was caused by 'find_library' in my plugin's CMakeLists.txt, because it failed to find MyLib

I use a variable to hold the result of 'find_library'  and that variable is in turn used in target_link_libraries
