Description Alexander Pepin 2009-06-17 15:21:48 UTC 
Steps to reproduce:
- create Welcome sample
- call Project Properties -> Manage Configurations...
- duplicate Debug configuration and name it Test
- set Test as active configuration
- change Development Mode for C++ in Test configuration from Debug to Release (-g to -O2)
- clean and build the project
Result: The build log shows compiler option -g for Test configuration.
- change Development Mode for C++ in Debug configuration from Debug to Release
- clean and build the project
Result: The build log shows compiler option -O2 for Test configuration.
Comment 1 Alexander Pepin 2009-06-17 15:22:32 UTC 
IMO it's a candidate for patch1
Comment 2 Alexander Pepin 2009-06-17 15:42:31 UTC 
Workaround: To 'split' configurations IDE should be restarted.
Comment 3 Thomas Preisler 2009-06-17 15:47:10 UTC 
Is it a regression? Duplicating configurations is not a common operation so I doubt it is a patch candidate.
Comment 4 Alexander Pepin 2009-06-17 15:59:47 UTC 
It's not a regression but it has become highly visible after fixing issue #167058
I think that both issues should be fixed in patch. 
User should be able to create new configurations using already created ones just adding or changing only some options.
But without fixing this bug it's very inconvenient.
Comment 5 Thomas Preisler 2009-06-17 16:06:10 UTC 
OK, I will see how complicated it is to fix.
