Hello,

I am having a problem understanding what line 215 to 218 is doing in
vs200x.vcproj, which I have inlined below:

            if cfg.kind == "SharedLib" then
                local implibname = cfg.linktarget.fullpath
                _p(4,'ImportLibrary="%s"', iif(cfg.flags.NoImportLib,
cfg.objectsdir .. "\\" .. path.getname(implibname), implibname))
            end

If the project type is a dll and the flag NoImportLib is specified, then it
is using the libname prefixed with the object directory, else it is just the
libname?

Thanks
