The easiest way to find out what to initialize in the type is to go to your CMakeLists.txt. Find the line that says something like add_executable(blah_blah src/whatever.cpp) then blah_blah is the type. Another way is to cd to your /devel/lib/ folder, dig into your package and there you will see the executables(probably, in green).
