Building shared libraries on Windows is not possible

[doedsjarl666]

There is a problem with building shared libraries with Cmake on Windows.
If BUILD_SHARED_LIBS is ON the following happens:
netcdf-cxx4.dll,
netcdf-cxx4.ilk,
netcdf-cxx4.pbd
are created bu netcdf-cxx4.lib is not, however in the macro add_bin_tests netcdf-cxx4.lib is specifically linked.
The cause of the problem is that there are no exports specified in the sources for netcdf-cxx4 library thus VS does not create a import .lib library.

yeah, when I use dumpbin /exports .\netcdf-cxx4.lib to check, I get:

no function exports.

So are there any plans to support it ?
