# CMAKE_FIND_LIBRARY_SUFFIXES

Suffixes to append when looking for libraries.

This specifies what suffixes to add to library names when the `find_library()` command looks for libraries. On Windows systems this is typically `.lib` and, depending on the compiler, `.dll.a`, `.a` (e.g. GCC and Clang), so when it tries to find the `foo` library, it will look for `[<prefix>]foo.lib` and/or `[<prefix>]foo[.dll].a`, depending on the compiler used and the `<prefix>` specified in the `CMAKE_FIND_LIBRARY_PREFIXES`.
