DLL Made with CMake makes the program crash - c++

Question

I'm struggling to use a DLL generated using CMAKE and C++. I'm able to build the library, include it and build the target project, the problem is that when I run the target build it crashes immediately.
My code is super easy and I don't know what I'm missing.
The DLL is built using CMAKE in a separate project. Here's the code
DLL PROJECT:
CMakeLists
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.5)
project(LibProj LANGUAGES CXX)
set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD 11)
set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD_REQUIRED ON)
add_definitions("-DBUILD_LIB")
file(GLOB
INCLUDE_FILES
baselibraryclass.h
)
file(GLOB
SOURCE_FILES
baselibraryclass.cpp
)
add_library(yourlib SHARED ${INCLUDE_FILES} ${SOURCE_FILES} )
baselibraryclass.h
#ifndef BASELIBRARYCLASS_H
#define BASELIBRARYCLASS_H
#ifdef BUILD_LIB
#define EXT_DLL __declspec(dllexport)
#else
#define EXT_DLL __declspec(dllimport)
#endif
#include <string>
class EXT_DLL BaseLibraryClass
{
public:
BaseLibraryClass();
};
#endif // BASELIBRARYCLASS_H
baselibraryclass.cpp
#include "baselibraryclass.h"
#include <iostream>
EXT_DLL BaseLibraryClass::BaseLibraryClass()
{
std::cout << "Hi from the library Class Object " << std::endl;
}
Target project
CMakeLists
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.5)
project(TargetProject LANGUAGES CXX)
#Including the path of the library header
include_directories(D:/TestingDLLNativeCpp/Library/include)
set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD 11)
set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD_REQUIRED ON)
add_executable(TargetProject main.cpp)
#The path of the built library is D:/TestingDLLNativeCpp/Library/Debug/yourlib.lib
target_link_libraries(TargetProject PRIVATE D:/TestingDLLNativeCpp/Library/Debug/yourlib.lib)
Target project main.cpp
#include <iostream>
#include <baselibraryclass.h>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
BaseLibraryClass testObk;
return 0;
}
As I wrote above, cmake configures properly and the compiler is able to build for both projects, however the target executables crashes immediately.
What am I doing wrong o.O??
Thanks for the attention

The issue of the dll not being included in the build directory might be solved by setting the CMAKE_RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY. However, a better practice would be to set the output directory of the .dll on a target basis. This will ensure that you have no unwanted side-effects in the long run.
set_target_property(yourlib PROPERTIES RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY "${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}")
