I'm trying to write cmake rules to build dynamic-loaded library for python using boost.python on linux. I'd like to use 'foo' for python module name. So, the library must be called foo.so.
But by default, cmake uses standard rules for library naming, so if I write
add_library(foo foo.cpp)
I will get libfoo.so on output.
Even set_target_properties(foo PROPERTIES OUTPUT_NAME "foobar")
will create libfoobar.so.
How to change this behavior?
