Summary0011713: add_custom_command is not invoked
DescriptionI use the add_custom_command function in order to increment the build number. It seems that add_custom_command is never invoked in the build process.
Steps To ReproduceYou just unzip the attached file and generate a mingw makefiles or VS solution. You can also change the following line in order to fit them with your paths:
add_custom_command(OUTPUT ./BuildNumber.h COMMAND "java" ARGS "-jar"
                                        "c:\\Tools\\Updater\\BuildNumberUpdater.jar"
                                        "M:\\ProvaCMake\\HelloExec\\BuildNumber.h"
                                        DEPENDS ${SOURCES}
                                        COMMENT "Changing the build number")
TagsNo tags attached.

 I think this is not a bug.
I did just upload "add_custom_ok.zip" which contains an updated project
which should work, the fix are the following:

0) Use absolute PATH for GENERATED files
   Use relative PATH (with no extra "./" in the beginning)
       for other files.
   
1) separate SOURCES from GENERATED_SOURCES in order to
   avoid the circular dependency

The updated project works for me on Linux.
The project still have the weird
add_subdirectory(../myLib "${Lib_OutPut_Dir}/BuildFiles")

this if off course OK but I would expect either myLib to be a
subdir of HelloExec or a sibling which is built by some
mother CMakeLists.txt.

 As Eric stated in 0011713:0024754 this is not a bug. Please post the the cmake@cmake.org mailing list:

for further help in writing your CMake code.

Thanks.
