Let's see if anybody else chimes in with an opinion. I've already given mine, and I don't think there's a good argument for making installing the debug runtime libraries any easier than it already is.

You can certainly write a wrapper script around the existing CMake InstallRequiredSystemLibraries that has additional logic surrounding it.

Whatever the case, if any change to CMake is proposed, it should take Visual Studio generator usage into account: i.e. -- do not rely on CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE, as it is typically empty/not set in a multi-configuration VS build.


Thanks,
David C.
