[cmake-developers] VS2010 fortran composer

[Biddiscombe, John A.]

If you create a new cpp project, by default it is win32 and visual studio puts everything in debug/...
If you change platform to x64, then it goes into x64/debug/... even without any fortran stuff added.

Adding fortran doesn't change anything.

So, mixing win32 and win64 is not something we support.

I find it odd that by adding the fortran libs into the mix it changes 
existing C libraries.  What if you do this:

1. create a c/C++ project with CMake  (no x64).
2. Load that project into the IDE
3. Add a fortran library

What happens?  Did it change the C/C++ locations or the fortran one?
