There's currently a warning message when using YAML-CPP as static library in debug mode because the library yaml-cppd.lib is expecting / missing pdb information. By setting the pdb generation folder to the lib folder, the compiler is no longer complaining. It now looks like this: .\RootBuildFolder\Release - yaml-cpp.lib .\RootBuildFolder\Debug - yaml-cpp static.pdb - yaml-cppd.lib See more about the problem: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/25843883/how-to-remove-warning-lnk4099-pdb-lib-pdb-was-not-found

It strikes me as a little weird that you're using a parent directory here. Is there a more direct way to put this file in the right spot?
