The following issue has been SUBMITTED. ====================================================================== https://public.kitware.com/Bug/view.php?id=15577 ====================================================================== Reported By: Cedric Guerin Assigned To: ====================================================================== Project: CMake Issue ID: 15577 Category: CMake Reproducibility: always Severity: minor Priority: normal Status: new ====================================================================== Date Submitted: 2015-05-20 11:38 EDT Last Modified: 2015-05-20 11:38 EDT ====================================================================== Summary: The 'project' command overwrites CMAKE_CONFIGURATION_TYPES. Description: If you have cmake files in a hierarchy of directories like in the sample provided, and use additional project commands in subdirectories (in my case in order to generate additional Visual Studio Solutions with only a subset of all the libraries generated), the project command will change the value of CMAKE_CONFIGURATION_TYPES to what appears to be a merge of the initial value outside any project declaration and it's current value, and this value will even be stored in the cache, affecting completely unrelated directory subhierarchies.
Steps to Reproduce: Simply run cmake on the provided sample. Additional Information: The output of the provided sample in a fresh build directory is: CMAKE_CONFIGURATION_TYPES at start is : CMAKE_CONFIGURATION_TYPES before global project is : Debug;Release;Default CMAKE_CONFIGURATION_TYPES after global project is : Debug;Release;Extra CMAKE_CONFIGURATION_TYPES before libraries project is : Debug;Release;Extra CMAKE_CONFIGURATION_TYPES after libraries project is : Debug;Release;Default;Extra CMAKE_CONFIGURATION_TYPES for runtimes is : Debug;Release;Default;Extra While the expected output whould be for CMAKE_CONFIGURATION_TYPES to remain at Debug;Release;Extra once set. Note that you can remove the assigment to CMAKE_CONFIGURATION_TYPES outside any project, it's only there to help identify what occurs. Without it, cmake considers that the value outside of any project is the one stored in CMakeCache.txt (or the 4 default configurations if there is no CMakeCache.txt), but the overall behavior is the same. ====================================================================== Issue History Date Modified Username Field Change ====================================================================== 2015-05-20 11:38 Cedric Guerin New Issue 2015-05-20 11:38 Cedric Guerin File Added: Project.zip ====================================================================== -- Powered by www.kitware.com Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Kitware offers various services to support the CMake community.
