Because I would need to run the test using ctest, and the test cases have hard-coded and relative paths configured. If i do an out-of-source build. Some test cases would fail. I am also building the project on windows Visual studio, which does not have the problem with in-the-source. it will put object files in different folders (release/debug).
Therefore, I don't know why it won't work in that way on Linux.


Currently there is no support for multiple configurations in the same build directory with the makefiles in CMake. It would be a significant effort to add support. I would change the hard-coded and relative paths that you have in your tests to a configured file.

configure_file(mypaths.h.in mypaths.h)
