Summary0010687: VC 2010 generator ignores .idl Files and doesn't produce .tlb file
DescriptionThe Visual Studio 2010 generator has no rule to recognize .idl for generating typelibraries.

Instead of generating
<Midl Include="foo.idl" />
it generates
<None Include="foo.idl" />

Regards
Gabriel

Building the same project with VS9 Generator works fine.
I think cmake is missing a rule for handling odl/idl-Files in VS10 Generator.

Fixed by this commit, just pushed to CMake 'next':
http://cmake.org/gitweb?p=cmake.git;a=commitdiff;h=13caaa3eb74a11dbf067409ea129321718d34dfe [^]

I expect this will make it into the upcoming CMake 2.8.4 release. I will update this and related issues with another note if that expectation turns out to be too optimistic... :-)
