Yes, this matches what I found after sending my last email. I was able
to get something to work the way I wanted, following the outline I had
originally provided using an OBJECT library instead of using source
files directly, like this (I made the generator more complex to better
emulate my real environment):
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8.12)
project(TEST C CXX)
include_directories(${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR})
add_custom_command(OUTPUT bar.cpp bar.h biz.cpp biz.h
COMMAND sh ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/genfile bar bar biz
COMMAND sh ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/genfile biz bar biz
DEPENDS foo.cpp ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/genfile
COMMENT "GENERATING bar.cpp")
set_source_files_properties(bar.cpp bar.h biz.cpp biz.h
PROPERTIES GENERATED TRUE)
add_library(Bobj OBJECT bar.cpp bar.h biz.cpp biz.h)
add_library(Bar STATIC base.cpp $<TARGET_OBJECTS:Bobj>)
add_library(BarDLL SHARED base.cpp $<TARGET_OBJECTS:Bobj>)
By creating the "Bobj" OBJECT library I'm only mentioning the source
file one time and this appears to make things work properly: the
generator is only invoked one time, and if I re-run the build without
changing anything, nothing is rebuilt.
The problem, of course, is that it uses the exact same .OBJ file to link
into both the shared and static libraries. In my real environment I'm
using different -D* flags, so that doesn't work.
Also I'm not as familiar with Windows; do you need to compile the OBJ
files differently if you're targeting static vs. DLL libraries (similar
to UNIX's -fPIC flag--although -fPIC can actually be specified for both
static and shared libraries)?
