Summary0009126: Feature request: Support for "File Type" setting in Xcode via file property
DescriptionCurrently the Xcode generator in CMake has a file type mapping to explicitly map extensions to Xcode's "File Type" property. This setting can be seen in Xcode by right-clicking a source file and selecting "Get Info".

For file extensions that CMake does not know it simply applies the type "sourcecode", however it would be nice if this could be overridden by using something such as:

set_source_files_properties(foo.asm PROPERTIES XCODE_FILE_TYPE "sourcecode.nasm")

Where "XCODE_FILE_TYPE" is the property type to be added for this feature.
Steps To Reproduce
Additional InformationThis feature may also enable other language support simply through this property assuming this is an acceptable convention for the Xcode generator.

If you would like to construct a git commit (based on the present 'master' branch), and then attach the patch produced by:

  git format-patch -1

to the issue at http://public.kitware.com/Bug/view.php?id=9126, [^] then we will consider it for inclusion in a future CMake release.

Seems like the easiest thing to do, at least for your case, would simply be add the "nasm" file extension to the code in the recently factored-out function GetSourcecodeValueFromFileExtension in Source/cmGlobalXCodeGenerator.cxx. Adding more known file types to that function will help us keep CMakeLists from being cluttered with too many required source file properties.
