I'm trying to understand why the cmake.bbclass doesn't make any attempt to set 
CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE and what the design philosophy behind that is?

On the surface I would expect that the default build type would be Release but 
I can see how that might not always be the right choice. I'm really surprised 
that there isn't a global variable that can be set for this, am I missing 
something, or is it really expected that each recipe provide it if they care?


FYI I started looking into this when I realized that NDEBUG is not set for many 
(if not all) of my CMake based recipes and thus asserts are still enabled in my 
production code. This appears to be known behavior for CMake if 
CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE is not set.
