Re: [CMake] add_dependencies being ignored for add_custom_command?

Yes, Header.hpp will be generated before the target is built. I do not believe the order of files listed in add_library() matters at all. On Mon, Oct 26, 2015 at 5:31 PM, Martin Braun wrote: > Gotcha, Iosif, > > thanks for clearing that up for me. To summarize, I should
