+Introduction
+------------
+
+CMake has a number of build in build configurations which can be used to compile
+your project. These specify the optimization levels and if debug information is
+to be included in the binary.
+
+The levels provided are:
+
+  * Release - Adds the `-O3 -DNDEBUG` flags to the compiler
+  * Debug - Adds the `-g` flag
+  * MinSizeRel - Adds `-Os -DNDEBUG`
+  * RelWithDebInfo - Adds `-O2 -g -DNDEBUG` flags
+
+
+Shows a hello world example which first creates and links a static library
+
+The files in this tutorial are below:

+Set Build Type
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The build type can be set using the following methods.
+
+  - Using a gui tool such as ccmake / cmake-gui
+
+image::cmake-gui-build-type.png[cmake-gui build type]
+
+  - Passing into cmake
+
+[source,cmake]
+----
+cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
+----
+
+[[set-default]]
+Set Default Build Type
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The default build type provided by CMake is to include no compiler flags for
+optimization. For some projects you may want to
+set a default build type so that you do not have to remember to set it.
+
+To do this you can add the following to your top level CMakeLists.txt
+
+[source,cmake]
+----
+if(NOT CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE AND NOT CMAKE_CONFIGURATION_TYPES)
+  message("Setting build type to 'RelWithDebInfo' as none was specified.")
+  set(CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE RelWithDebInfo CACHE STRING "Choose the type of build." FORCE)
+  # Set the possible values of build type for cmake-gui
+  set_property(CACHE CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE PROPERTY STRINGS "Debug" "Release"
+    "MinSizeRel" "RelWithDebInfo")
+endif()
+----
+
+When creating an executable that will use your library you must tell the compiler
+about the library. This can be done using the +target_link_library()+ function.
