I'm trying to include legacy Visual Studio projects into a cmake generated solution like this:
project(Crypto) include_external_msproject(${PROJECT_NAME}_vcproj "${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/${PROJECT_NAME}_vs90.vcproj" ) # add_dependencies(${PROJECT_NAME}_vcproj # ) add_library(${PROJECT_NAME} INTERFACE) target_link_libraries(${PROJECT_NAME} INTERFACE debug ${LIB_PATH_DEBUG}/${PROJECT_NAME}.lib optimized ${LIB_PATH_RELEASE}/${PROJECT_NAME}.lib ) add_dependencies(${PROJECT_NAME} ${PROJECT_NAME}_vcproj ) This works only as long as the vcproj-files contain a configuration named 'release' and 'debug', but when they don't it seems there is no way to map the existing configuration names (as also requested in https://cmake.org/pipermail/cmake/2010-April/036388.html). I tried the proposed way with imported targets, but I didn't succeed. How can I map a configuration of an external ms-project (e.g. 'release_shared') into a configuration (e.g. 'release') of the cmake-generated solution? The problem is that simply adding a configuration named 'release' works, of course, but then I'd have to change the external vcproj... -- Powered by www.kitware.com Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Kitware offers various services to support the CMake community.
