Upon using CMake with Xcode and instructing CMake to generate application bundles, I've run into the following issues:

* When I make a change to a static library, the executable doesn't relink. I have to rm it from the application bundle myself. Upon digging through the (very verbose) build logs, I came across this little snippet during the XCODE_DEPEND_HELPER phase:

/bin/rm -f /Users/joshua/MiniApp/build/image/Debug/MiniApp

This is wrong.  It should be:

/bin/rm -f /Users/joshua/MiniApp/build/image/Debug/MiniApp.app/Contents/MacOS/MiniApp

I'm not immediately sure how to fix this, but it is a critical nuisance. Code changes to libraries do not make it into the executable.

* The second issue has to do with running a Clean (an attempt to figure out what was going on). Cleaning an application bundle project whacks the entire MiniApp.app/ folder structure. Ack! Any resources I had manually copied in there are destroyed. CMake should not kill anything it does not write into that folder structure. Anyway, I'd love solutions to both of these, but the executable not relinking is a huge deal. I'll look into a solution in the meantime. If anyone knows how to fix this, please let me know.

What version of CMake are you using? Also, I don't think CMake has anything to do with the clean target, it is managed by Xcode itself.
I always forget the important stuff. I'm using latest CVS and the latest version of Xcode.

As a follow up question... why is that step even necessary? The static library is a dependency of the executable target. I know I've seen Xcode figure this stuff out on non-CMake builds. Why not here?

Thanks!
