[CMake] Need some directions for non-trivial setup

[David Cole]

Every "project(...)" command in a CMakeLists.txt file (we expect at
most one in any given CMakeLists.txt file) results in a *.sln file
being generated for use with Visual Studio.

Every add_library(...), add_executable(...) and add_custom_target(...)
results in a *.vcproj or *.vcxproj file being generated for Visual
Studio.

The behavior you are seeing is probably due to the use of the
"add_subdirectory(...)" command. CMake does not "scan" anything
automatically. You must explicitly say what CMakeLists.txt files in
sub-directories you want to read.


HTH,
David
