CMAKE for windows DLL with OpenCV project

Behold: My Cmakelists.txt file

project(facedetectlib)
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8)
include (GenerateExportHeader)

SET(CMAKE_VERBOSE_MAKEFILE TRUE)

file(GLOB HEADER_LIST ./include/*.h)
include_directories(./include)

aux_source_directory(. SRC_LIST)

find_package(OpenCV REQUIRED )

# Allow the developer to select if Dynamic or Static libraries are built
OPTION (BUILD_SHARED_LIBS "Build Shared Libraries" OFF)
# Set the LIB_TYPE variable to STATIC
SET (LIB_TYPE STATIC)
IF (BUILD_SHARED_LIBS)
  # User wants to build Dynamic Libraries, so change the LIB_TYPE variable to CMake keyword 'SHARED'
  SET (LIB_TYPE SHARED)
ENDIF (BUILD_SHARED_LIBS)

add_library(ocvfacedetectlib ${LIB_TYPE}  ${SRC_LIST} ${HEADER_LIST})
target_link_libraries(ocvfacedetectlib ${OpenCV_LIBS})
GENERATE_EXPORT_HEADER( ocvfacedetectlib
             BASE_NAME ocvfacedetectlib
             EXPORT_MACRO_NAME ocvfacedetectlib_EXPORT
             EXPORT_FILE_NAME ocvfacedetectlib_Export.h
             STATIC_DEFINE ocvfacedetectlib_BUILT_AS_STATIC
)

Using this cmake file and piecing together some instructions from here:

I am trying to figure out if the DLL is getting built correctly. My header file for my little library has the following in it:

#include "ocvfacedetectlib_Export.h"
typedef unsigned char uint8_t;
extern "C" {
ocvfacedetectlib_EXPORT uint8_t * facedetect( uint8_t *imageData, long buffsize,  unsigned char *retbuffer );
}

And then I have in my .cpp file this:

ocvfacedetectlib_EXPORT uint8_t * facedetect( uint8_t *imageData, long buffsize, unsigned char *retbuffer )
{ ..do stuff using OpenCV
 ...}

This seems to be enough to generate a DLL but I am not sure if it is being built correctly - I am unable to load it use js.ctypes() which is what I am trying to do as my end goal.

For what it's worth - my .cpp has a main() method as well and when I build the code to an .exe it runs.
