#
# This macro creates a libtool .la file for shared libraries or plugins. The
# first parameter is the target name of the library, the second parameter is
# the directory where it will be installed to. For example, for a KDE 3.x
# module named "kfoo", the usage would be as follows:
#
# ADD_LIBRARY(foo SHARED kfoo1.cpp kfoo2.cpp)
# CREATE_LIBTOOL_file(foo /lib/kde3)
#
# The macro get_target_property_with_default is helpful to handle properties
# with default values.
