David, I hear what you are saying, but a lot of legacy Makefile based system support "make" and "make debug" alongside each other. I'm still looking for the cmake way to easily mark a small part of a project to be built with debug flags. For instance, if you have functionality in a static archive, you just link the new debug enabled object file against the main.o and the archive and you end up with some debugging symbols in no time.
Regards, Arjen From: cmake-boun...@cmake.org [mailto:cmake-boun...@cmake.org] On Behalf Of David Cole [snip] Since this is a prevalent scheme that is widely used by folks coming from single-config, single-architecture (makefile based) build systems... it's the way CMake has gotten to the point it's at now. I'm not saying this is good or bad, just explaining that this is the way it is, and that there are historical reasons why we got to this point. _______________________________________________ Powered by www.kitware.com Visit other Kitware open-source projects at http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Follow this link to subscribe/unsubscribe: http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake
