Summary0014196: Subdirectories in OUTPUT_NAME doesn't work anymore (VS2010)
DescriptionUnder VS2005 this works, but not in VS2010.

If I want to build my shared libraries under VS2005 I added

set(CMAKE_RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY "${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/bin")
set_target_properties(MyTargetShared PROPERTIES
                      OUTPUT_NAME "dynamic/MyTargetShared")

which generates the shared library in

${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/bin/Release/dynamic/MyTargetShared.dll

The same behavior does not work under VS2010, here the shared library is generated in

${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/bin/Release/MyTargetShared.dll

Is there a way to append a directory to the OUTPUT_DIRECTORY of the target?

This worked at most by accident in older generators. The OUTPUT_NAME is for file names. Use the RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY property:

 http://www.cmake.org/cmake/help/v2.8.11/cmake.html#prop_tgt:RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY [^]

set on the individual target.

 set(CMAKE_RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY "${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/bin")
 set_target_properties(MyTargetShared PROPERTIES
                       RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY "${CMAKE_RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY}/dynamic")
