Build Error when using -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS_DEBUG="/MTd" flag in C++

viki · January 8, 2021, 5:37am

Hi,

I am facing build error, when using -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS_DEBUG="/MTd" .

cmake_code:

cmake …\ITK -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS_RELEASE="/MT" -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS_DEBUG="/MTd" -DITK_SKIP_PATH_LENGTH_CHECKS=ON -DModule_ITKIOGDCM=OFF -DModule_ITKGDCMIO=OFF -DITK_USE_SYSTEM_JPEG=OFF -DITK_USE_SYSTEM_PNG=OFF -DBUILD_TESTING=OFF -DBUILD_EXAMPLES=OFF -G “Visual Studio 15 2017 Win64”

After Building . i have added following comment:

cmake.exe --build . --config Debug --target ALL_BUILD

Error:

how to solve this error, in my cmake any flags are missed ? if i missed any flag ,please tell me what flag i missed.

Thanks!

You are seriously modifying default Visual Studio’s flags. For release you are requesting static multi-threaded standard run-time library. For debug, you are requesting dynamic debug multi-threaded standard run-time library. The usual way is both are either static or dynamic (DLL). What are you trying to accomplish?

Maybe start from defaults, and then modify them. Get the defaults by running CMake or CMake-GUI without any custom options. For example, default CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS_DEBUG = /MDd /Zi /Ob0 /Od /RTC1.

Hi dzenanz !
Thanks For your Response.

For release you are requesting static multi-threaded standard run-time library.-yes correct.

For debug, you are requesting dynamic debug multi-threaded standard run-time library.-Debug also i am requesting MTd(static Multi threaded debug standard run-time library) .not requesting MDd(Multi threaded Debug Dll)

I am trying to build both Debug and release as static multi-threaded runtime Library.

dzenanz · January 9, 2021, 5:17pm

You are right, I did not pay enough attention.

You also need to use the same flags for CMAKE_C_FLAGS in addition to CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS. I still think starting from CMake defaults and modifying what you want is better than building flags from scratch.

viki · January 12, 2021, 6:16am

Hi dzenanz !

i used this flags CMAKE_C_FLAGS CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS .still facing same error only.

CMAKE:

cmake ..\ITK -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS_RELEASE="/MT" -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS="/MTd" -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS_DEBUG="/MTd" -DITK_SKIP_PATH_LENGTH_CHECKS=ON -DModule_ITKIOGDCM=OFF -DModule_ITKGDCMIO=OFF -DITK_USE_SYSTEM_JPEG=OFF -DITK_USE_SYSTEM_PNG=OFF -DBUILD_TESTING=OFF -DBUILD_EXAMPLES=OFF -G "Visual Studio 15 2017 Win64"

CMAKE_C_FLAGS_DEBUG take priority over CMAKE_C_FLAGS. If you also set CMAKE_C_FLAGS_DEBUG to /MTd the build succeeds. Your release config flags are even more obviously unsynchronized. Take a look at the configuration in CMake-GUI to see all the options. Here is a screenshot of configuration which built fine in Debug mode:
