Thorsten Schöning commented on LOGCXX-510:
------------------------------------------
You are right, the following statement works for me as well. Must have missed
that the real problem was XML and most likely changed both at the same time.
{noformat}
set(LOG4CXX_DLL_DIR "$<SHELL_PATH:$<TARGET_FILE_DIR:log4cxx>>;")
{noformat}
Regarding XML, why not simply introduce a variable like is available for APR
already? That way people can easily configure whichever XML they like. In the
end, I seem to even use a more standard directory layout than you, because I
didn't change any defaults of CMAKE to place all DLLs into one and the same
directory and with that setup one needs to configure XML individually.

> I just tested building log4cxx using CMAKE and Visual Studio 2019 Community.
> Things failed and I want to use this bug to document everything that I've
> found, because for some things I'm not sure how to handle them properly. Will
> create a new branch to maintain the fixes I came along, so that those can at
> best be later reviewed by others. The branch of interest is currently named
> "logcxx_510_cmake_vs2019_compat".
