I don't know why it doesn't appear straight away, (although I suspect
it's because the variable is set after the project command)
But you should never do this unconditionally:
SET(CMAKE_CONFIGURATION_TYPES ${CMAKE_CONFIGURATION_TYPES} DebugStatic
CACHE STRING "" FORCE)
That will simply continuously append to the variable in the cache, and
it will grow on each subsequent configure in the same build tree...
Real code should check whether DebugStatic is in there already, and
avoiding appending if already present.
HTH,
David
