Summary0014599: Show sources out of CMakeLists directory in Project Explorer view of Eclipse
DescriptionIn many subprojects I've got some sources outside of CMakeLists directory. This is an example:
C:\Product1\project1\CMakeLists.txt
C:\SharedFiles\dir1\foo.cpp
C:\SharedFiles\dir1\foo.h

Should it be possible to add dir1 as linked folder or add foo.* as linked files?
In this way the
behavior of the Eclipse generator would be closer to the VS's one.
A previous discussion having the object "Eclipse: sources out of CMakeLists directory" is reported in the mailing list.

Here comes the ML reference

Andrea,

Could you provide us a minimal project example including
a *working* CMakeLists.txt and a couple of files.
Sommething like:

OutOfTree/Project/CMakeLists.txt
OUfOfTree/Project/Source/*
OutOfTree/OtherDir/foo.cpp
OutOfTree/OtherDir/foo.h

this should be enough to give us an example of what you want.

That's an example:
#-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8.10)

# Project name
project(FooLib)

include_directories(C:/Lib)

set (TARGET_NAME_STATIC FooLib)
set (SRC_FooLIB
             ./Foo.h
             ./Foo.cpp
             C:/Lib/OtherHeader.h)

add_library(${TARGET_NAME_STATIC} ${SRC_FooLIB})

My idea is FooLib project should have:
1 - A linked directory to C:/Lib
or
2 - A virtual directory named something like C_Lib containing a linked file to OtherHeader.h.
With linked directory or linked file I mean what is described here: http://help.eclipse.org/indigo/index.jsp?topic=%2Forg.eclipse.platform.doc.user%2Ftasks%2Ftasks-45.htm [^]

Let me know if I clarified my vague idea.

Thanks.
