DEBUG_CONFIGURATIONS — CMake 4.4.0 Documentation

# DEBUG_CONFIGURATIONS

This property specifies which Build Configurations are for debugging.

The value must be a semicolon-separated list of build configuration names. Currently this property is used only by the `target_link_libraries()` command. Additional uses may be defined in the future.

This property must be set at the top level of the project and before the first `target_link_libraries()` command invocation. If any entry in the list does not match a valid configuration for the project, the behavior is undefined.

By default, this property is not set.

## Examples

The following example adds a custom configuration to non-optimized debug configurations while preserving any existing ones. If the project uses the default `Debug` configuration, it should be included as well.

    set_property(GLOBAL APPEND PROPERTY DEBUG_CONFIGURATIONS Debug CustomBuild)
