[CMake] Setting the and Icon for a Windows Executable

[David Cole]

Add a *.rc file to your ADD_EXECUTABLE sources.
In the *.rc file, add a line that references the ico file:
IDR_MAINFRAME           ICON                    "res\\CMakeSetupDialog.ico"

(In this example, IDR_MAINFRAME is a #define that gives an integer
identifier for the ico resource.)

See CMake/Source/MFCDialog/CMakeLists.txt and CMakeSetup.rc for an example.


HTH,
David
