Thanks for your reply. I'm not sure I follow your answer. I do delete the directory each time I build, but I'm still not understanding how you're building release or debug versions to begin with.
I'm just automatically getting Release, unless I edit CMakeCache.txt after I've built once. I just checked CGAL_CreateSingleSourceCGALProgram.cmake which is invoked in my CMakeLists.txt, but I do not see it setting the build type to Release. https://github.com/acgetchell/CDT-plusplus/blob/master/CMakeLists.txt On Tue, Feb 24, 2015 at 12:20 PM, J Decker <d3c...@gmail.com> wrote: > I use a different directory to build release and debug versions.... > > if you didn't delete, then when it goes to build partial things, the .obj > files will still be newer than the .c files and will cause mixed > release-debug builds which generally results in bizarre crashes. > Once chosen, can't change the build type of a build; although if you could > it should do a clean also. > > > On Tue, Feb 24, 2015 at 11:42 AM, Adam Getchell <adam.getch...@gmail.com> > wrote: > >> Hello all, >> >> I've browsed this thread: >> >> http://www.cmake.org/pipermail/cmake/2008-September/023808.html >> >> But it doesn't work.
