Summary0012566: REGRESSION: CMake suppresses /SUBSYSTEM linker flag
DescriptionSome users wish to use the console subsystem for debug builds and windows subsystem for release builds. http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/VSConfigSpecificSettings [^] provides a solution that used to work but seems to have gotten broken in recent releases.

http://public.kitware.com/Bug/view.php?id=11171 [^] contains a patch that fixes this bug (by reversing the order in which manual linker flags and WIN32_EXECUTABLE are processed). Please apply https://public.kitware.com/Bug/file/3459/Bug-0011171-sub-topic-SUBSYSTEM-WINDOWS-linker-flag.patch [^]
Steps To Reproduce1. Paste http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/VSConfigSpecificSettings [^] into CMakeFiles.txt
2. Build project under Visual Studio 2010 debug and release builds
3. Notice how the /SUBSYSTEM linker flag is being ignored
Additional InformationIdeally we should be able to set SUBSYSTEM directly instead of specifying LINK_FLAGS that show up under "Additional Options". Please consider fixing this separately as an feature request. Again, though, users should be able to configure different SUBSYSTEMS for different configurations (debug/release/etc).

 The goal is to be able to have per-config values for WIN32_EXECUTABLE. We should just offer that:

  add_executable(foo WIN32 foo.c)
  set_property(TARGET foo PROPERTY WIN32_EXECUTABLE_DEBUG 0)

 Workaround: Add the following lines to your application source:

#ifdef _DEBUG
#pragma comment(linker, "/SUBSYSTEM:CONSOLE")
#endif

Microsoft states that this is not supported (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/7f0aews7.aspx [^]) but it perfectly works for our projects.

 Un-assigning bugs that are not on the active roadmap, which no developers are actively working on for the CMake 2.8.11 release.

If one gets put back on the roadmap, re-assign it appropriately at that time.

 Re-setting status back to "new" for bugs that are "assigned" but not assigned to a specific developer. When/if these bugs go back on the roadmap for a specific version, assignment to an appropriate developer should take place then...
