You can also try shadow building. That is have two different subdirectories 
for different builds. Clean the build directory first, then go to the Build 
Settings, there is a Shadow Build checkbox and a line edit to enter the 
directory. You need to create another build configuration for each different 
build directory. And you need to remember to switch build configurations while 
switching platforms.
