I believe you will want to use the low level command CUDA_WRAP_SRCS
with the MODULE option. Since CUDA_WRAP_SRCS is a low level command,
If you need separable compilation you will need to manually invoke
those steps too ( read CUDA_SEPARABLE_COMPILATION documentation on
what methods you will need to use ).
