Yes, CMake should recognize that "generator" is a target and create the dependency of tlib.h on "generator" automagically. And since it knows that tlib.h is GENERATED, it will also add a dependency of tlib on tlib.h. If you want to make really sure that CMake understands that "generator" is a target, use generator expressions, like "$<TARGET_FILE:generator>", but that works only since 2.8.4.
