[CMake] post and pre processing for the Cpack target (package/package_source)

[t m]

Hello CMake Experts,

Is there any way to define post or pre-processing actions for built-in
targets like package/package_source.

Those two are not visible in "CMakeLists.txt scope", so the
add_dependencies(package_source pre_package_source)
can not be used. What I found is the solution described here:
http://dingyichen.livejournal.com/8104.html. It based on
fact that you can wrapp a package target call by adding own target:

ADD_CUSTOM_TARGET(pack_src
    COMMAND make package_source
    COMMENT "Packaging Source files"
    DEPENDS other_dependency
    VERBATIM
    )

I check it and is fine as far as you do not use -j option together
with make. Is there any other alternative ?, Thanks in advance.

regards, Tomek.
