Hi,

There is this existing big project which is based on autotools and I am trying 
to simply include the existing make files into my cmake project (don't even 
mention the possibility of converting the whole thing to cmake, this is the 
project owners problem). I was able to sucessfully implement this inclusion 
manually and this is what I mean by 'manually':

After generating the cmake output for a unix-like project, for the target of 
interest this file needs to be edited:

/CMakeFiles/[target].dir/build.make

The editing simply involves 2 modifications:

(1) Somewhere in this file the include line for the existing make file is added.

(2) Somewhere in the compile command all the flags from the existing make file, 
stored in one single variable $(EXISTING_MAKE_FLAGS), is added.

The above works fine, the only pain is that I have to edit the build.make file 
every time I re-run the cmake command. The question is, how can this be 
automated by cmake commands?


-Ali
