implibprefix

The implibprefix function specifies the import library file name prefix. Import libraries are generated for Windows DLL projects.

#!lua
implibprefix ("prefix")

By default, the system naming convention will be used: no prefix on Windows, a prefix of "lib" (as in libMyProject.a) on other systems. The implibprefix function allows you to change this default.
