I started again from the beginning to sort out exactly what was going
on. Here's what I found.
If I use the CMake GUI, and set CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE to Release,
re-configure and then generate, and then do the following build command:
"devenv OpenMPI.sln /build"
I get the following:
1>------ Build started: Project: libopen-pal, Configuration: Debug x64
etc. It still builds debug versions, and pdbs. The install project
doesn't try to install the pdbs though.
If I do a "devenv OpenMPI.sln /build release", I get a proper release
build, no pdbs and the install project works.
If I use the CMake GUI, and leave CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE at Debug, and do
"devenv OpenMPI.sln /build release", I get a release build, but the
install fails because it goes looking for pdbs that aren't there.
So, in order to get a Release build that installs using the CMake GUI,
you need to have CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE set to Release *and* do a
"devenv OpenMPI.sln /build release" at the command line, followed by
"devenv OpenMPI.sln /build release /project INSTALL".
To get a Release build from the command-line without using the CMake
GUI, you need to have SET(CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE Release) in the top-level
CMakeFiles.txt, and then
"devenv OpenMPI.sln /build release" at the command-line, followed by
"devenv OpenMPI.sln /build release /project INSTALL"
As Shiquing said in another post, you need to do completely independent
setups for 32 and 64-bit builds. I set mine up with build32 and build64
directories, and install32 and install64 directories to keep everything
separate.
HTH,

Hmmm. I did try setting release and I think I still got pdbs. I'll try
again from a totally clean source tree and post back.
Another datapoint:
I tried Cmake's Generate after setting CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE and building.
I have the same sort of build problems with setting x64 in the VS 2008
configuration manager.
