-On AIX, enable creation of a shared library archive. This places

-the shared object ``.so`` file inside an archive ``.a`` file.

|
|
+On AIX, enable or disable creation of a shared library archive
|
|
|
+for a ``SHARED`` library target:
|
|
|
|
|
|
-By default, CMake creates shared libraries on AIX as plain
|
|
|
-shared object ``.so`` files for consistency with other UNIX platforms.
|
|
|
-Alternatively, set this property to a true value to create a shared
|
|
|
-library archive instead, as is AIX convention.
|
|
|
+* If enabled, the shared object ``.so`` file is placed inside
|
|
|
+ an archive ``.a`` file. This is the preferred convention on AIX.
|
|
|
|
|
|
-The shared object name in the archive encodes version information from
|
|
|
-the :prop_tgt:`SOVERSION` target property, if set, and otherwise from
|
|
|
-the :prop_tgt:`VERSION` target property, if set.
|
|
|
+ The shared object name in the archive encodes version information from
|
|
|
+ the :prop_tgt:`SOVERSION` target property, if set, and otherwise from
|
|
|
+ the :prop_tgt:`VERSION` target property, if set.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+* If disabled, a plain shared object ``.so`` file is produced.
|
|

This property defaults to :variable:`CMAKE_AIX_SHARED_LIBRARY_ARCHIVE`
|
|
|
if that variable is set when a non-imported ``SHARED`` library target
|
|
|
is created by :command:`add_library`. Imported targets must explicitly
|
|
|
enable :prop_tgt:`!AIX_SHARED_LIBRARY_ARCHIVE` if they import an AIX
|
|
|
shared library archive.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+For a non-imported target, if this property is not set, the
|
|
|
+default is *disabled*.
