/MT vs /MD and x86 vs x64

[bers]

Hi,
I'm using VS2005 on Win7 x64. I configured both for Win32 and Win64, and I noticed that, while the Win32-generated stuff is /MT(d) throughout, the Win64 projectes are /MD(d). Is this intended, and if yes, why?

In any case, you might adapt FAQ #26 (viewtopic.php?t=35), because this still states that dcmtk uses /MT.

Thanks,
Yannick

Thank you for pointing this out.

By default, DCMTK still uses /MT unless the CMake variable DCMTK_OVERWRITE_WIN32_COMPILER_FLAGS is set to "off". However, for the official 3.6.0 release, the generator check for VS on Win x64 was incorrect -- the "Win64" suffix was missing. This has been fixed with the following commit, which also makes sure that future VS versions are (hopefully) detected automatically.

So on the short time scale, can I do anything to generate all projects with /MT instead of /MD? Do I need to replace the CMakeLists.txt and re-generate? Because regeneration alone does not seem to suffice, if I get you right.

Edit: Yes, that works. Thanks a lot!
