[CMake] How to turn off incremental linking for MSVC Debug and RelWithDebInfo targets?

[Erwin Coumans]

I can't find where this INCREMENTAL:YES is coming from.

Is there a better way than hacking the 'cmLocalVisualStudio7Generator
::GetBuildTypeLinkerFlags'
to replace INCREMENTAL:YES by INCREMENTAL:NO?

Thanks a lot,
Erwin




//----------------------------------------------------------------------------
std::string
cmLocalVisualStudio7Generator
::GetBuildTypeLinkerFlags(std::string rootLinkerFlags, const char*
configName)
{
  std::string configTypeUpper = cmSystemTools::UpperCase(configName);
  std::string extraLinkOptionsBuildTypeDef =
    rootLinkerFlags + "_" + configTypeUpper;

  std::string extraLinkOptionsBuildType =
    this->Makefile->GetRequiredDefinition
    (extraLinkOptionsBuildTypeDef.c_str());

  cmSystemTools::ReplaceString(extraLinkOptionsBuildType,
"/INCREMENTAL:YES", "/INCREMENTAL:NO");

  return extraLinkOptionsBuildType;
}
