[CMake] PDB_NAME with DEBUG_POSTFIX

[Carl Poirier]

Hi folks,

I have a question here regarding the use of the DEBUG_POSTFIX. When I set
it as well as the property OUTPUT_NAME, the former is correctly applied to
the latter. Now when I try to do so with a library, the DEBUG_POSTFIX does
not get applied to the PDB filename. Here are the relevant lines of my
CMakeLists.txt:

# Set the resulting filenames
set_target_properties(${PrjName1} PROPERTIES COMPILE_PDB_NAME mylib)
set_target_properties(${PrjName1} PROPERTIES OUTPUT_NAME mylib)

# Add "D" postfix for the debug build
set_target_properties(${PrjName1} PROPERTIES DEBUG_POSTFIX "D")

So is there a reason why it works (or doesn't) that way? The best
workaround I have now is set the names on a per-configuration basis.

Regards,

Carl
