1CMAKE_FIND_LIBRARY_SUFFIXES
2---------------------------
3
4Suffixes to append when looking for libraries.
5
6This specifies what suffixes to add to library names when the
7:command:`find_library` command looks for libraries.  On Windows systems this
8is typically ``.lib`` and, depending on the compiler, ``.dll.a``, ``.a``
9(e.g. GCC and Clang), so when it tries to find the ``foo`` library, it will
10look for ``[<prefix>]foo.lib`` and/or ``[<prefix>]foo[.dll].a``, depending on
11the compiler used and the ``<prefix>`` specified in the
12:variable:`CMAKE_FIND_LIBRARY_PREFIXES`.
