Hi, until recently I was pretty sure that CMake uses default compiler / linker options that you usually get when setting up a VisualStudio project by hand.
I was proven wrong after our latest code changes killed the compiler with 'compiler is out of heap space' error messages. The problem, as the explanation for that error message suggest, is the '/Zm1000' compiler option CMake forces. Removing that option from the compile flags fixed the problem. Another option in this category is the linker flag '/STACK:10000000' that CMake forces. We now use string replace to get rid of these options, that IMHO shouldn't be there in the first place. Even the biggest projects we currently build on VS2005+2008 don't need any of these options. So the question is, why does CMake force these flags? Is this some old behaviour that was once necessary in older VisualStudio versions?
