Have a look at the -C option which allows you to set cache variables before anything else runs. You can use that in a batch script to set up things automatically. And it's not CMAKE_<target>_PREFIX you want (no such variable, except CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX, which is probably not what you meant), but CMAKE_<CONFIG>_POSTFIX, where <CONFIG> is Debug, Release, RelWithDebInfo, MinSizeRel and any other configuration the project lists in CMAKE_CONFIGURATION_TYPES.
