I can't seem to put it in a custom target.
Just list the output source files in a target: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ#How_can_I_generate_a_source_file_during_the_build.3F In your code these lines: # Convert ADD_CUSTOM_COMMAND( OUTPUT tmpFile COMMAND transmogrify ARGS ${TMP_MCFILE} ) do not make sense because it creates an output called "tmpFile" over and over again in that FOREACH loop. Each rule should have its own output, and all outputs you want to generate should be listed in a target. -Brad _______________________________________________ CMake mailing list [email protected] http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake
