• There is now the CMAKE_INTERMEDIATE_DIR_STRATEGY variable (and associated environment variable CMAKE_INTERMEDIATE_DIR_STRATEGY) that may be used to change the strategy used to name intermediate directories used for object files (and other associated target metadata). It is supported for the following generators:

  • Ninja Generators

  • Makefile Generators

  • Visual Studio Generators

  Note that the strategy implementation may differ between generators.
