Well, there is a case that I can not do without it, even Microsoft says to
use it in this case : when using uuid.lib, you may have multiple symbol
(constant) definition .. And Microsoft says to use /FORCe to build the
executable. I tried to not use it but I could never build my executable :(

That's drive me crazy : I use cmake and all is ok but when doing it without
cmake, my executable can't link ... Cmake is frightening black-box....

I hope I'll be able to build my "big project" with cmake easily ...

One thing I do not know how to do is to specifiy different  include/link
directories for debug/release and also different libraires (we use a
decorated name for debug library: eg Toto.lib for release an TotoD.lib for
debug ....) but i will find (i hope so :) )
