Hi,
By default I would like to set CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release (inside
CMakeLists.txt) if the user has not defined CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE himself (e.g.
as command-line option: cmake . -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug). Is there a best
practice how to do this in CMake? I have been searching the web to see how
other people achieved this and I found that many people use code like this:
if(NOT CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE)
set(CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE "Release" CACHE STRING
"Choose the type of build, options are: None Debug Release
RelWithDebInfo MinSizeRel."
FORCE)
endif()
I used this code myself in one of my projects but I recently discovered
that this code causes issues when compiling with clang-cl on Windows.
Greetings,
Kim
