Hi I have a generator that generates some, but not all of the source files. My understanding was that I should use add_custom_command for that
When I do set(EXIST_SOURCES A.cc B.cc C.cc) set(GEN_SOURCES X.cc Y.cc Z.cc) add_custom_command(OUTPUT ${GEN_SOURCES} COMMAND generator MAIN_DEPENDENCY gendir/generator ) set_property(SOURCE ${GEN_SOURCES} PROPERTY GENERATED ) add_library(mylib OBJECT "${EXIST_SOURCES} ${GEN_SOURCES}" ) I get error "Cannot find source file : X.cc" So, I tried set(EXIST_SOURCES A.cc B.cc C.cc) set(GEN_SOURCES X.cc Y.cc Z.cc) add_custom_target(generate COMMAND generator COMMENT "Generate" DEPENDS gendir/generator ) set_property(SOURCE ${GEN_SOURCES} PROPERTY GENERATED ) add_library(mylib OBJECT "${EXIST_SOURCES} ${GEN_SOURCES}" ) add_dependencies(mylib generate) I get same error "Cannot find source file : X.cc" I just don't get it...
