[Vxl-users] problems submitting nightly build with ctest for debug/release

[Miguel A. Figueroa-V. <mi...@ms...>]

Hello,

Please let me know if I should post the question in the CMake lists and 
not here.

I'm not sure if there is too much interest in having another nightly 
build for a:

- OS: WinXP Pro with SP2
- Compiler: Visual Studio 7 .NET 2003
- Machine: AMD Athlon XP 2400+ 2GHz 1GB DDR RAM
- cmake and vxl updated daily from cvs

But since I am trying to get into the habit of keeping my vxl build 
up-to-date automatically, I figured it wouldn't be much more work to 
test and submit the build. BTW, I'm running everything from the cygwin 
bash shell, and using cygwin tools except for the Compiler, and CMake 
(which is built with MS VS 7.1).

I have successfully built vxl and submitted it as Nightly and 
Experimental a few times. And I built the debug and release versions 
using something like:

- devenv.com /build Release(or Debug) /project ALL_BUILD

The problem that I am having is that I can't get them built using ctest. 
That is build both the release and debug configurations in the same 
binary tree (I have source and binary trees separate) and submit results 
for both of them together or separately. I definitely want to keep both 
configurations in the same tree and I can't afford to erase everything 
daily.

I have tried several things, but basically this is what I thought I 
should be doing (after reading several documentation pages, cmake book, 
and searching everywhere I could think):

   "${MYCTEST} -D NightlyStart"
   "${MYCTEST} -D NightlyUpdate"
   "${MYCTEST} -C Release -D NightlyConfigure"
   "${MYCTEST} -C Release -D NightlyBuild"
   "${MYCTEST} -C Release -D NightlyTest"
   "${MYCTEST} -C Debug -D NightlyConfigure"
   "${MYCTEST} -C Debug -D NightlyBuild"
   "${MYCTEST} -C Debug -D NightlyTest"
   "${MYCTEST} -D NightlySubmit"

where ${MYCTEST} is set to the ctest program path.

This, however, builds the release version in lib/release, but doesn't 
build build lib/debug files. I think it might have to do with clearing 
some files...

Any insight on how to solve this issue will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Miguel
