[CMake] configurations and (debug, release and others)

[Mehdi Rabah]

Thanks, and sorry to have called compiler optimization "tweaks", my english
is not so good... but I see that you understood it.

Still,  when I type "ccmake ." and I toggle to advanced mode, I only get
CMAKE_BACKWARDS_COMPATIBILITY variable.

Here is what my CMakeLists.txt look like:
------------------
project ( Test )
cmake_minimum_required ( VERSION 2.4.4 )

set ( CMAKE_VERBOSE_MAKEFILE OFF )
set ( CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE Debug )

set ( EXECUTABLE_OUTPUT_PATH
${PROJECT_BINARY_DIR}/../Build/${CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE}/bin )
set ( LIBRARY_OUTPUT_PATH
${PROJECT_BINARY_DIR}/../Build/${CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE}/lib )

include_directories ( Structs )

add_subdirectory ( Applications )
add_subdirectory ( Drivers )
----------------

Do I made something wrong ?

Regards,
