Hi Falk,

Thanks for your feedback.

I had a look at the macro itself as well as the command line it generates for different DEPENDENT_DYNAMIC_LIBS - both appear sane.
Quotes around library paths containing spaces are added by CMake as expected.

For reference, this is the macro invocation I used:

adtf_create_plugindescription(
    TARGET
        ${EXAMPLE_TARGETNAME}
    PLUGIN_SUBDIR
        "src/examples/bin" 
    DEPENDENT_DYNAMIC_LIBS
        "/home/ww/somefile.so" 
        "/home/ww/some file with spaces.so" 
        "relative.so" 
)

This is the command line generated by cmake:

C:\dev\adtf\master\package\bin\debug\adtf_plugin_description_generator.exe 
--plugin C:/dev/adtf/master/package/src/examples/bin/debug/demo_custom_stream_type_filters.adtfplugin 
--output C:/dev/adtf/master/debug/build/src/examples/src/adtf/filters/standard_filters/custom_stream_type/$(Configuration)/demo_custom_stream_type_filters.plugindescription 
--dynamic-link C:/home/ww/somefile.so 
--dynamic-link "C:/home/ww/some file with spaces.so" 
--dynamic-link C:/dev/adtf/master/source/src/examples/src/adtf/filters/standard_filters/custom_stream_type/relative.so

Can you provide more information on your issue, specifically the following snippets:

• the invocation of the macro
• the generated command line (Located in the properties of <YourSoltuion>/<YourProject>_pdgen/CMake Rules/<YourProject>.plugindescription.rule)
• any error message you encounter

Your proposal to support search paths would indeed increase convenience and we will look into it.
Extending the PATH variable on Windows seems reasonable.
Linux may be trickier due to our current reliance on RPATH for resolving Qt dependencies which prevents us from using LD_LIBRARY_PATH to implement this feature.

Hi,

retried it and command line looks ok now. would be nice to get the path feature soon. thanks, problem no longer appears.
