[CMake] Debug / release build types

[David Aldrich]

Hi Yuri

Thanks for your answer. I chose to use the OPTIMIZED and DEBUG keywords in target_link_libraries for simplicity.

Best regards

David

The best way is to use imported targets, specifying different locations for each configuration (http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake/Tutorials/Exporting_and_Importing_Targets).

Or simply use OPTIMIZED and DEBUG keywords in target_link_libraries (see command help).

Hi

My understanding is that cmake will automatically set the compiler flags based on CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE.  I am wondering whether there is a clean way of specifying debug / release ‘extra’ libraries such that cmake will select the appropriate library at link time?

Currently I use this code to link to the open source ‘SystemC’ library:

if( USE_SYSTEMC )
    if( CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE STREQUAL "Release" )
        target_link_libraries( zodiac ${SYSTEMCLIB_R} )
    endif( CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE STREQUAL "Release" )
    if( CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE STREQUAL "Debug" )
        target_link_libraries( zodiac ${SYSTEMCLIB_D} )
    endif( CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE STREQUAL "Debug" )
endif( USE_SYSTEMC )

Is there a cleaner way of doing this?

Best regards

David
