Description Sylvain Joyeux 2003-06-13 17:34:00 UTC
Version:           CVS of 09/06 (using KDE KDE 3.1.2)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages

If you create a new build profile in "Configure Options" (creating a 'debug' build for instance), if you blank the "build directory" field, the change is taken into account. But next time you call the Options dialog, it is changed back to its original state (debug in my example).

You are not suposed to blank that directory! 
You should NOT mix your configurations! If you have two configurations 
outputing .o files to the project root, ALL HELL BREAKS LOOSE! 
Your debug files will be mixed with the optimized ones and so on! 
That is why that field sould never be blank and all your build directories 
_have_ _to_ _be_ different directories. 
 
Please close this bug if you understood or agree with me. If not, comment my 
opinon.

In this case, I definitely think it should be better to explain that
when we create new configurations. The first time I did it, I was unable
to use the new configurations because the default one was already 
built. It's very annoying.

Thank you.
