It would therefore make sense to set the build type to the right value so that
these flags can be included. In that case we would also have to set the default
values of all CMAKE_C{,XX}_FLAGS_$TYPE variables to sensible values that do
not include any -O flags. CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS_RELEASE would for example only
contain "-DNDEBUG".
Bernd Steinhauser proposed that we should set the CMake build type based on a
build_option. What do you think?
Why a build_option? Why not a regular suboption or option?
Just because I thought it fits into build_options. But that's the only real
reason.
(One of ) The reason against it would be that we currently just add a normal
option "debug" if we handle something like that at all, but we could switch
those over if we can define a general way how to do debug builds for autotools
and other build systems. And if we would want to, of course.
No idea if there technical reasons against a build_options suboption and for
regular suboptions, if there are, I'd like to know.
