Visual Studio 2019 linking wrong libraries in Debug (Release instead of Debug)

MoeDoucet

I'm trying to compile one of the CMakelist based demos under Visual Studio instead of Qt Creator.  My problem is that when compiling in Debug, Visual Studio is not getting the correct "d" version of the libraries.  It properly links the "d" version of all the Qt libraries, but not EsriRuntimeQt or EsriCommonQt.  I have to manually add the "d" in Visual Studio.

I'm using the CMakelist.txt generated by the demo so I'm not quite sure what's going on.

I found a way around it.  I have a build system that compiles my Qt apps and targets Debug/Release within Visual Studio.  To fix this, I took the demo CMakelist.txt that was created and removed the dependency on the "FindArcGISRuntime.cmake" as it's reference to the higher level ArcGISRuntime.cmake did not see to ever put the proper POSTFIX "d" onto the libraries for my debug builds.  So I changed the above to look like the following and Visual Studio Debug/Release builds are now setup properly.  I know I'm having to specify paths, but this got me up and running:
