cmake: how to build opencv in both debug and release mode?

Question

I am using Cmake GUI 2.8 to build opencv 2.4.10 on a linux machine. I want to build both Debug and Release versions at the same time so that I will have two libraries /lib/Debug and /lib/Release.

I notice that opencv has parameter CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE but don't know how to enable both types.

How do I configure CMake GUI to do that?

Answer 1

Is not possible to do them at the same time. You should configure two separate build directories, one for the debug and one for the release builds.
