This looks like you have an add_custom_command and expect the output to be available for file(READ) on the next line of the CMakeLists.txt file. Remember that add_custom_command creates a rule that is evaluated at *build* time which is after *cmake* time. The file(READ) takes place during cmake time, so the custom command has not yet been executed. You cannot have something that runs at build time generate a list of files to be used during the same build. All the build rules have to be generated ahead of time. You can run nepomuk-rcgen during the cmake configuration step with execute_process, but that will run every time and not have dependencies. You can use the cmake try_compile() command to update a whole build tree during the configuration step. Can you summarize what this program does and the relationships of its input/output files and the resulting library to be built? -Brad _______________________________________________ Kde-buildsystem mailing list [email protected] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-buildsystem
