I'm still having problems with this.
I put together this:
project( test-post-build NONE )
cmake_minimum_required( VERSION 2.8 )
set( output ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/foo )
add_custom_command( OUTPUT ${output}
COMMAND touch ${output}
COMMENT "Touching foo"
)
add_custom_target( foo.build ALL DEPENDS ${output} )
add_custom_command( TARGET ${output}
POST_BUILD
COMMAND echo "POST_BUILD ${output}"
)
add_custom_command( TARGET foo.build
POST_BUILD
COMMAND echo "POST_BUILD foo.build"
)
Based on your description above I expected this behaviour:
% cmake ..
-- Configuring done
-- Generating done
-- Build files have been written to:
/home/magnus/Play/test/cmake/post_build/_build
% make
Scanning dependencies of target foo.build
[ 0%] Touching foo
POST_BUILD /home/magnus/Play/test/cmake/post_build/_build/foo
POST_BUILD foo.build
[100%] Built target foo.build
% make
POST_BUILD foo.build
[100%] Built target foo.build
However, that's not the case. I only ever see the 'POST_BUILD foo.build'
printed. So, what target can I use to get the desired behaviour of the
POST_BUILD only being run after an actual build?
