Setting default build directory in QtCreator to use lowercase CurrentBuild:Name

I'm trying to set the default build directory in qtCreator to, depending on build type:

bin/debug
bin/release

I have changed the default value of

../build-%{CurrentProject:Name}-%{CurrentKit:FileSystemName}-%{CurrentBuild:Name}

to

bin/%{CurrentBuild:Name}

It builds fine, creates the directories etc; only issue is it creates the Debug|Release directory with a capital letter. Is there a way to make this lower case as every other folder in the path is lower case?

While I have been unable to find a way to make arbitrary strings lowercase, there is a variable that has the lowercase build type: 'CurrentBuild:Type'

So, the following default build path accomplishes what you want:

./bin/%{CurrentBuild:Type}
