[CMake] 0009835: ctest --help-property CTEST_BUILD_TARGET

[Chris Hillery]

I would suggest you re-open that bug, since clearly that option is NOT
documented at all.

It's not mentioned on
http://www.cmake.org/cmake/help/ctest-2-8-docs.html#command:ctest_build ,
nor in the output of "ctest --help-command ctest_build".

It IS mentioned in at least one Kitware Quarterly newsletter, which is the
only reason I know anything about it:

http://kitware.com/products/archive/kitware_quarterly0709.pdf

But that's hardly the same thing as "well documented".

FYI, at least according to the Kitware Quarterly, it's not
ctest_build(TARGET ...), it's set (CTEST_BUILD_TARGET ...) and then
ctest_build() will build that.
