[CMake] Incorrect object file name on cmake compilation

[Ravi Raman]

Yes. That's correct David. I was actually looking for an explanation why the object file name is coming with the suffix .cpp.obj instead of the conventional .obj.
It was kind of a problem for me because the object file comparison tool uses the object file name as the reference for object file comparison.

Thanks & Regards

I think (Ravi, correct me if I'm wrong) that they're transitioning to 
CMake from a previously purely Visual Studio build system, and they're 
writing some tools to validate that the builds are ending up "the same."

So it's not really a "problem" for anybody -- I think he was just 
looking for an explanation of why CMake would change the obj file name.
