<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">I've noticed an inconsistency in CMake's generation.. For example I go through the following sequence:<br>
<br>
cd \Project<br>
mkdir Debug<br>
cd Debug<br>
<br>
Then I either:<br>
<br>
cmake -G "Visual Studio 9 2008" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug ..\CMakeLists.txt<br>
<br>
It will generate, and then place the project files in \Project.<br>
<br>
<br>
But if I use:<br>
<br>
cmake -G "Visual Studio 9 2008" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug ..<br>
<br>
It will generate, and then place the project files in \Project\Debug<br>
<br>
<br>
Why are these different?<br>
Are the differences expected behavior?<br>
I'm a bit confused..<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
