Terrible English, try number two... Why would you not recommend
setting it, and what do you mean by it? I was not setting
CMAKE_CONFIGURATION_TYPES to anything, but the CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE
property is manipulated to offer the list, and then the
CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE variable is populated if it is empty in my example.
