Hello everyone, I'm looking for a way to force Debug configurations in generated MSVC solutions to use the Release runtime instead of the default "Debug". e.g. /MD rather than /MDd.
My use case is an ever recurring problem of creating libraries that are linked in plug-in fashion against Release only applications. I want for my Debug configuration to have debug info and no optimization but still use the release runtime so I can link them. I tried replacing /MDd with /MD in CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS_DEBUG. This yielded objects built with /MD alright but failed to link into an executable with stuff like that: error LNK2038: mismatch detected for 'RuntimeLibrary': value 'MD_DynamicRelease' doesn't match value 'MDd_DynamicDebug' in Test.obj >From what I gather all the obj are actually compiled for Release runtime without optimization and Debug info just like I need it. But then the main obj is built and linked in Debug mode, causing the executable to not be created. Is there a way to solve this? Like a generic CMake executable flag or something that I can use to force the other runtime? Please note that using RelWithDebInfo and turning off optimization is not exactly what I need as I still want that mode much the way it is. Cheers, Stephan
