[CMake] Question about add_library with IMPORTED

Hello,

I have a library which is a Visual Studio project only (which will be 
converted to cmake in the future).

In my current cmake project, I try adding this library using the 
following code:

set (IMPORTED_LOCATION "../farfaraway/lib")
add_library ("mylib" STATIC IMPORTED)

When I run cmake using:

cmake . -G "Visual Studio 9 2008"

I don't see the imported library in my visual studio solution. I do not 
know what I'm missing.

Thank you,
Ben.
