[CMake] Forcing project to be included in a solution?

[David Cole]

Sure, just use add_custom_target without the "ALL" argument. If you
don't use "ALL", then the project is completely disconnected from
ALL_BUILD and everything else, and will only be triggered when you
explicitly build that target/project.


HTH,
David
