Hi
Is it possible to disable the generation of Debug/ and Release/ folders
for the MSVC Generator?
My app builds into a defined folder structure
/builddir/bin/MyApp
/builddir/bin/plugins/MyPlugin1
/builddir/bin/plugins/MyPlugin2
This works perfectly on linux and windows commandline with nmake.
But we also have Windows developers which want to use Visual Studio projects.
When using the Visual Studio Generator it produces a structure like this.
/builddir/bin/Debug/MyApp
/builddir/bin/Release/MyApp
/builddir/bin/plugins/Debug/MyPlugin1
/builddir/bin/plugins/Release/MyPlugin1
/builddir/bin/plugins/Debug/MyPlugin2
/builddir/bin/plugins/Release/MyPlugin2
Normally the app searches its plugins in AppPath/plugins.
But with this structure it would have to search in AppPath/../plugins/{Debug|
Release}.
So the app cannot find the plugins.
I'm using out-source builds where I have different build folders for different
configurations anyway so generating Debug/Release folders for each subproject
is unnecessary.
thanks
