[CMake] Need help with COMPILE_DEFINITIONS_<CONFIG>

Hi folks,

I need some help setting the COMPILE_DEFINITIONS_<CONFIG>. I'm using the
Visual Studio 2008 generator. I use this command to do so which I took in
the notes <http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_2.6_Notes> when the feature was
added:

set_property(TARGET ${PrjName0} PROPERTY COMPILE_DEFINITIONS_DEBUG ATEST)

Then, once the solution and project is generated, I go into the project
properties under the C++ preprocessor and I can't see the define. Removing
the configuration name does set it correctly for all of them, so it leads
me to believe the rest of my CMakeLists.txt is fine:

set_property(TARGET ${PrjName0} PROPERTY COMPILE_DEFINITIONS ATEST)

So is this supposed to work?

Thank you,

Carl
