[CMake] custom command and differences between VS2005 and VS2010

[walter.schwarz at dzbank.de]

Hi Aaron,

thank you very much für your analysis. we are currently using cmake, ver 
2.8.2.

the effect disappears with cmake 2.8.7. so we have to go for an upgrade.

/thanks again and best regards    Walter

I tried this out with VS 2010 SP0 Win64.  Here?s my CMakeLists:

 

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8)

 

project(Test CXX)

 

file(WRITE foo.h "//Some Foo Header ")

file(WRITE foo.cpp "int main(int argc, char** argv) { return 0; }\n")

file(WRITE foo.txt "This is the foo text file (simulated config)")

 

set( etc_hdrs foo.h)

 

set( etc_srcs foo.cpp foo.txt)

 

add_custom_target( etc SOURCES ${etc_hdrs} ${etc_srcs} )

 

For me, the resulting VS Solution has the text file as a member of the 
project:

Also ended up with an item named ?etc?, which seems wrong.. not sure why 
that would have happened.  I?m using CMake 2.8.7 on Windows 7.  I wonder 
if there is something else that is a problem.  What version of CMake are 
you using?

our project contains a directory with config files. to make the config 
files (and other externally supplied header files) visible in the visual 
studio solution, the custom command shown below was specified in the 
directory. 

this worked well with the generator for Visual Studio 2005. it doesn't any 
more with the generator for visual studio 2010. 

- is this intentional or is it a bug? 
- what can i do to fix this?
