Wrong OPENSSL_INCLUDE_DIR during SlicerCAT build on WIndows

Development

Hi,

I’m trying to build SlicerCAT with SlicerJupyter bundled using clean build on WIndows with VS 2022.
Thus xeus depends on OpenSSL:

ExternalProject_Add_Dependencies(xeus
  DEPENDS
    OpenSSL
  )

But during xeus configuration I get:

  Performing configure step for 'xeus'
  loading initial cache file C:/C/r/slicersources-build/xeus-prefix/tmp/xeus-cache-Release.cmake
  -- Selecting Windows SDK version 10.0.19041.0 to target Windows 10.0.22000.
  -- xeus version: v2.3.1
  -- xeus binary version: v7.1.1

  -- XEUS_STATIC_DEPENDENCIES:        OFF
  -- XEUS_EMSCRIPTEN_WASM_BUILD:      OFF
  -- XEUS_BUILD_TESTS:                OFF
  -- XEUS_EMSCRIPTEN_WASM_TEST_BUILD: OFF
  -- tests disabled
  -- Configuring done
  CMake Error in CMakeLists.txt:
    Imported target "OpenSSL::Crypto" includes non-existent path

      "C:/C/r/OpenSSL-install/$(Configuration)/include"

    in its INTERFACE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES.  Possible reasons include:

    * The path was deleted, renamed, or moved to another location.

    * An install or uninstall procedure did not complete successfully.

    * The installation package was faulty and references files it does not
    provide.

In xeus cmakecache OPENSSL_INCLUDE_DIR is set to C:/C/r/OpenSSL-install/$(Configuration)/include.

I’m looking at External_OpenSSL.cmake but still don’t understand why there is rounded brakets in $(Configuration)
It seems it goes from SlicerBlockAdditionalLauncherSettings.cmake but can’t understand why this is hapenning.

I see now

Slicer’s External_OpenSSL uses CMAKE_CFG_INTDIR that is expanded to $(Configuration) at configuration time and to Release or Debug etc during build time.

Probably xeus tries to check whether the path exist during config time and that is why I get error
