Description
Currently the option dialog displayed in OMEdit for FMI platforms shows:
I find it difficult to understand what to choose. Somebody who knows FMI would possibly go for "Dynamic", because the standard way of using an FMU is as DLL or shared library. But this is not meant here. It is about the dependencies of the generated DLL to other DLLs. The standard user should normally use "static" since this implies that everything is linked into the dynamic library which is generated.
Therefore, I think this dialog should be improved to make it more clear for a user what is meant and give an indication that "static" is the default choice for a typical user.
