Hello

I add custom build step manually through VS10 dialog for the following cmake
code , and it works as it should. But if I run this through cmake ( not
manually ) it does not work:
CMAKE_MINIMUM_REQUIRED(VERSION 2.8)
PROJECT(quick_test)
ADD_CUSTOM_COMMAND(
OUTPUT generated.txt
COMMAND ${CMAKE_COMMAND} -E copy
${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/generated.txt.in
${PROJECT_BINARY_DIR}/generated.txt
DEPENDS generated.txt.in
)
ADD_CUSTOM_TARGET(${PROJECT_NAME} DEPENDS generated.txt)
What it seems odd is this :
If I change the name of the input file or the name od the output file , then
it does work with cmake too.
Maybe this just my imagination can not tell for sure. My guess is maybe this
has to do something that the output file ( generated.txt) is substring of
the input file ( generated.txt.in ).
Thank you
