Summary0005065: Build debug and release libs/dlls to the same directory.
DescriptionAn option to build/install debug and release libs/dlls to the same directory.

I think this can be easily done by changging: <VTK_DIR>\Cmake\KitCommonBlock.cmake
From:
IF(VTK_LIBRARY_PROPERTIES)
  SET_TARGET_PROPERTIES(${KIT_LIBRARY_TARGETS} PROPERTIES
    ${VTK_LIBRARY_PROPERTIES}
    )
  
ENDIF(VTK_LIBRARY_PROPERTIES)
to:
IF(VTK_LIBRARY_PROPERTIES)
  SET_TARGET_PROPERTIES(${KIT_LIBRARY_TARGETS} PROPERTIES
    ${VTK_LIBRARY_PROPERTIES}
    )

#Add this line to change the output debug library name to *_d.lib/.dll
  SET_TARGET_PROPERTIES(${KIT_LIBRARY_TARGETS} PROPERTIES
    DEBUG_POSTFIX _d
    )

ENDIF(VTK_LIBRARY_PROPERTIES)

This is documented at the following URL: http://www.vesuite.org/forum/viewtopic.php?=&p=341 [^]

Can this be extended to include an option to add the _d extension automatically when building VTK?

The rationale is that when building your own code it would be nice to automatically include either the debug or release versions as appropriate.
