Summary:                    Incorrect generator for VC2010
Description: 
I have created a small Cmake\C++ project which shows this error\issue.

It is a simple Cmake project.

It contains 1 static C++ library and 1 executable C++ project, which uses the
static library.

I am specifying to build these two projects into Release configuration.
But the static library is being built into DEBUG configuration also!

I have tried to reproduce this example for VC2008 generator - and it works fine
- only Release version of binaries were created!

It causes problem in my big project build!

Any ideas?

Thank you very much,
Petr

Steps to Reproduce: 
1) Unpack the attached CMake project;
2) Generate solution and VC2010 project files into xxx\build folder by using
VC2010 (32-bit) generator;
3) run "msbuild TestPetrPetrov.sln /m:1 /p:Configuration=Release
/p:Platform=Win32" in xxx\build folder from command line
4) see in "xxx\build\Debug\" folder. Here are Lib1.lib and lib1.pdb!!! It is an
error! I specified to compile only "RELEASE" configuration, *NOT* debug!
5) see in "xxx\build\Release\" folder. Here are Example1.exe and Lib1.lib. It is
correct behavior.

P.S. Also I see messages that DEBUG version of Lib1 is being built:

Lib:
  C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC\bin\Lib.exe
/OUT:"D:\cmake_test3\build\Debug\Lib1.lib" /NOLOGO Lib1.
  dir\Debug\lib.obj
  Lib1.vcxproj -> D:\cmake_test3\build\Debug\Lib1.lib
