[Kde-imaging] Including blob lib into kipi-plugin

[Andi Clemens]

Hi Gilles,

I'm still not that familiar with C++ and its libs, in Python it would be easy 
to include new libs into a program: just copy them into the folder and that's 
it.
But I guess this is not how it works in C++ / CMake.
I created a folder libs/blob inside the plugin and copied all *.h and *.cpp 
files into it.
Now I need to create a CMakeLists.txt that defines this folder as a library, 
right?
Do you think I can just copy the sqlite3 files as an example or will this not 
work since sqlite3 is already compiled?
Do I have to actually compile the blob lib and only use the header files and 
the libblob.a file in there?
Dies this mean it will not work on windows? To make it work there I think I 
need to have the blob*.cpp files in there, too?

You see CMake and C++ in general still is a big confusion for me sometimes, 
like the 'delete' statement crashing my application etc... :-)
But I will learn...!
