NOTE: You can merge and sort lists using the SET() and LIST() command and no longer need this macro.

set(FIRST_LIST  a b c d i j k l)
set(SECOND_LIST e f g h m n o p)
set(COMPLETE_LIST ${FIRST_LIST} ${SECOND_LIST})
list(SORT COMPLETE_LIST)
# you can also remove duplicates
list(REMOVE_DUPLICATES COMPLETE_LIST)

# This macro merges elements in sorted lists ALIST and BLIST and stored the result in OUTPUT
MACRO(MERGE ALIST BLIST OUTPUT)

    SET(SORTED)
    SET(UNINSERTED 1)
    FOREACH(B ${BTEMP})
        IF(${UNINSERTED})

# Here is an example that merges *.cpp files and *.h files into a single sorted list
