From bc7f2fd9f29fe8ec3b4df308d7201e1bdf001e33 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Azat Khuzhin Date: Fri, 23 Nov 2018 00:29:55 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] cmake: do not build both (SHARED and STATIC) for MSVC/win32 MSVC does not support SHARED and STATIC libraries with the same name, so let's just build SHARED libraries by default instead (yes we can add prefix but let's stick with this). The reason for this is that in windows shared libraries requires .lib file too, but this is not static library it is imported library for shared (doh...), for more info [1] and [2].
