Hi All,

I have a setup where, the main project consists of a number of subprojects which are added to the build using the ExternalProject_Add() function. I have a few cached variables in the main project's cmake file which can be configured by the user. These are passed to the subproject using the CMAKE_ARGS parameter in ExternalProject_Add().

After I generated the makefiles from the main project, I do a 'make edit_cache' and update the cache variables. Then I give make in the main project. But the new values of the cached variables are not being used in the sub project.

Is there any way I can make the external project to be reconfigured and built automatically when the cached variable is changed in the main project?

thanks,
arun
