[CMake] Adding a header dependency on a generated header file. (was PRE_BUILD custom commands don't appear to be working....)

2007-12-17 Thread Josef Karthauser 
So, I've created a new target to generate the header, and made the
library target depend upon it.  How do I now make sure that the
generated header is considered in the dependency checks for the objects
build from the CPP files that #include it?

But you should be able to put your custom command in its own custom
target and then use ADD_DEPENDENCIES to make the custom target build
*before* any build steps for the library...

 

Have you tried that?

ADD_CUSTOM_COMMAND: Add a custom build rule to the generated build
system.

Note that the PRE_BUILD option is only supported on Visual Studio 7 or
later. For all other generators PRE_BUILD will be treated as PRE_LINK. 



We have tried, and this is next to impossible to do with a makefile,
sorry...

Josef,

Here's what I do. The fooCLP.h file is generated by a custom command.

  # mark the .clp file as a header file

SET_SOURCE_FILES_PROPERTIES(${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/${TMP_FILENAME}CLP.h
PROPERTIES HEADER_FILE_ONLY TRUE)
  SET_SOURCE_FILES_PROPERTIES(${TMP_FILENAME}.cxx PROPERTIES
OBJECT_DEPENDS ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/${TMP_FILENAME}CLP.h)
