Re: [CMake] CMake stripping /SUBSYSTEM out of LINK_FLAGS
Hi, it reaches the linker. I can't simply add WIN32 to add_executable() because I want debug builds to use the console sub-system and release builds to use the windows subsystem. I have three questions: I don't have a solution in cmake, but I worked around this using code from here: http://www.halcyon.com/~ast/dload/guicon.htm. It shows how to open a console window and redirect the output. It also has the benefit that the debug build is closer to release builds and that the entry point definition is more in line with the windows documentation (SUBSYSTEM:WINDOWS - WinMain, SUBSYSTEM:CONSOLE - main).

[CMake] CMake stripping /SUBSYSTEM out of LINK_FLAGS
Hi, I'm using CMAKE 2.8.6 with Visual Studio 2010 Express. According to http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/VSConfigSpecificSettings I should be able run: set_target_properties(main PROPERTIES LINK_FLAGS /SUBSYSTEM:WINDOWS) where main is my project, but I've discovered that CMake strips /SUBSYSTEM:WINDOWS silently and never passes it to the linker. By contrast, if I run: set_target_properties(main PROPERTIES LINK_FLAGS /SUBSYSTEM:foo) it reaches the linker. I can't simply add WIN32 to add_executable() because I want debug builds to use the console sub-system and release builds to use the windows subsystem. I have three questions: 1. Why CMake is stripping this flag? 2. Why is it not issuing a warning of some sort? 3. How do I override SUBSYSTEM as suggested by this Wiki entry?

Thanks, Gili Looks like a bug that's been open for over a year now: http://public.kitware.com/Bug/view.php?id=11171 Any chance of increasing the priority of this bug?
