I think what he wants to do it exactly the opposite we usually do.

Instead of choosing a compiler (for instance, Visual C++), then choose  
a build type (Release, Debug, etc) in the CMakeLists.txt depending on  
the command line, he seems to want to ask for the build type, then  
choose a compiler depending on that. If I have understood correctly,  
he wants to say "if build type is debug, use Visual C++ but if build  
type is release, use mingw".
