[CMake] Why SET() not support regular expression ?

[pepone.onrez]

There isn't any way for GLOB runs every time and view if there is new files
in the GLOB?
or other way for adding multiple files with a regular expression and get it
update when needed?

a custom macro can do this?

Any other ideas for adding multiple files and get it updated automatically.

Thanks
