[CMake] Eclipse Generator and Configuration

[Pierre-Julien Villoud]

Ok... Thanks for your answer. 
I'm surprised this feature is not integrated yet in cmake since it's very common to switch configuration when you're working with an IDE. Now the IDE project files generators don't seem so interesting for me... 

I have to add the custom target Debug and Release in which I call cmake with the CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE corresponding to the configuration...

Thanks anyway I will be looking closely to the future versions of cmake !

I believe you need to rerun CMake to switch configuration.

I'd like to implement a revamped, GNU-make-only, Makefile-generator for 
CMake with support for selecting configuration at runtime. But day does 
not have enough hours, I'm afraid.
