I think that's true for all project files generated by cmake. You set up most 
things in the CMakeLists.txt, and then use what cmake generates as project 
files.

When opening a project from a CMakeLists.txt in CodeBlocks, it runs cmake on 
the CMakeLists.txt with the CodeBlocks generator, and loads the resulting 
codeblocks project file.

The one which parses the cmake files itself and reimplements most cmake 
commands is KDevelop4.
