* due to cmake quirks, you can't specify a white-space only library name. CMake genuinely tries to link a " .lib" resulting in build failures. * With how the headers are written, if you want to static-link soundio, SOUNDIO_STATIC_LIBRARY must be defined during compile - this supresses the DLL export/import declarations - if this is not done, you get errors about missing _imp_... symbols during link due to the symbol munging that MSVC uses for DLL import libraries.

Export the symbol through the CMAKE mechanisms by declaring it PUBLIC.
