I tried execute process it works but hte problem is that it runs at compile
time itself i want that script wil run at build time.

With add_custom_command iam not able to give something in OUTPUT since the
script simply display a message.

Another problem is that  with other add_custom_command wher iam specify
OUTPUT which is something like files then its compulsory to link them with
some target but i simply want to generate it. also unless an until u cant
link to some target and run "make <target_name> add_custom_command willnot
run.

I want to simply run the make command and want to execute teh command but
this OUTPUT as well as linking it with some target really creates a lots of
problem to me..

Is there any way by which if want to simply executes a command it runs on
doing "make" only. add _custom _commadn demands OUTPUT which is not a
problem but the tresult will not come unless u link it with some target and
then built that target for that u have to give "make <target_name>. i just
want to run make...

I hope i make clear my problem...
Let me know how to get rid of it...
