As far as MS VS IDE is concerned, build directory names like "debug runtime-static threading-multi" (with the space character) would make life easier than directory tree like the current "...debug/runtime-static/threading-multi" because the string "debug runtime-static threading-multi" can become $(ConfigurationName) macro in IDE.
I'd strongly suggest not to use spaces in file / directory names, as that makes life unnecessarily hard for users of command-line tools. But I agree that collapsing some option sets into single directory names would be quite convenient. Regards, Stefan
