Summary0009163: A way to set different output paths for MSVC Debug/Release configurations
DescriptionCould you please create new XXXXX_<CONFIG> variables and properties to set different paths on MSVC according to the build configuration, so that we can get rid of the currently mandatory /Debug or /Release subdirectory.

Variables:
  - CMAKE_LIBRARY_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY_<CONFIG>
  - CMAKE_ARCHIVE_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY_<CONFIG>
  - CMAKE_RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY_<CONFIG>

Properties:
  - RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY_<CONFIG>
  - and so on...

Thanks

First, some cleanup:

  Fix Xcode <= 2.0 projects with CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE
  /cvsroot/CMake/CMake/Source/cmGlobalXCodeGenerator.cxx,v <-- Source/cmGlobalXCodeGenerator.cxx
  new revision: 1.239; previous revision: 1.238

  Consolidate duplicate documentation in cmTarget
  /cvsroot/CMake/CMake/Source/cmTarget.cxx,v <-- Source/cmTarget.cxx
  new revision: 1.283; previous revision: 1.282

Next, fix Xcode and VS 6 generators to use per-configuration target dirs:

  Keep Xcode intermediate files away from output dir
  /cvsroot/CMake/CMake/Source/cmGlobalXCodeGenerator.cxx,v <-- Source/cmGlobalXCodeGenerator.cxx
  new revision: 1.238; previous revision: 1.237

  Use per-config output dir in VS 6 templates
  /cvsroot/CMake/CMake/Source/cmLocalVisualStudio6Generator.cxx,v <-- Source/cmLocalVisualStudio6Generator.cxx
  new revision: 1.162; previous revision: 1.161
  /cvsroot/CMake/CMake/Templates/DLLHeader.dsptemplate,v <-- Templates/DLLHeader.dsptemplate
  new revision: 1.31; previous revision: 1.30
  /cvsroot/CMake/CMake/Templates/EXEHeader.dsptemplate,v <-- Templates/EXEHeader.dsptemplate
  new revision: 1.26; previous revision: 1.25
  /cvsroot/CMake/CMake/Templates/EXEWinHeader.dsptemplate,v <-- Templates/EXEWinHeader.dsptemplate
  new revision: 1.26; previous revision: 1.25
  /cvsroot/CMake/CMake/Templates/staticLibHeader.dsptemplate,v <-- Templates/staticLibHeader.dsptemplate
  new revision: 1.23; previous revision: 1.22

  Create a static library's output dir for VS 6
  /cvsroot/CMake/CMake/Source/cmLocalVisualStudio6Generator.cxx,v <-- Source/cmLocalVisualStudio6Generator.cxx
  new revision: 1.163; previous revision: 1.162
  /cvsroot/CMake/CMake/Source/cmLocalVisualStudio6Generator.h,v <-- Source/cmLocalVisualStudio6Generator.h
  new revision: 1.27; previous revision: 1.26

Finally, introduce the properties/variables themselves, and a test:

  Introduce per-config OUTPUT_DIRECTORY properties
  /cvsroot/CMake/CMake/Source/cmTarget.cxx,v <-- Source/cmTarget.cxx
  new revision: 1.284; previous revision: 1.283

  Test per-config OUTPUT_DIRECTORY properties
  /cvsroot/CMake/CMake/Tests/CMakeLists.txt,v <-- Tests/CMakeLists.txt
  new revision: 1.142; previous revision: 1.141
  /cvsroot/CMake/CMake/Tests/OutDir/CMakeLists.txt,v <-- Tests/OutDir/CMakeLists.txt
  initial revision: 1.1
  /cvsroot/CMake/CMake/Tests/OutDir/OutDir.c,v <-- Tests/OutDir/OutDir.c
  initial revision: 1.1
  /cvsroot/CMake/CMake/Tests/OutDir/OutDir.cmake,v <-- Tests/OutDir/OutDir.cmake
  initial revision: 1.1

One more change to fix the OUTPUT_DIRECTORY property test:

  Fix OutDir test on HP, MinGW, and Cygwin
  /cvsroot/CMake/CMake/Tests/OutDir/OutDir.cmake,v <-- Tests/OutDir/OutDir.cmake new revision: 1.2; previous revision: 1.1

This feature is now implemented and the test passes everywhere. It will be included in a future 2.8.x release.
