[CMake] Adding "*.obj" geometry files...

[Daniel Dekkers]

Hi,

Although with the VS2008 generator setting the HEADER_FILE_ONLY property
works to exclude the files from the build, in VS2010 no such luck.
Am I doing something wrong in the syntax? Or is it a known issue with
VS2010?

We're doing this:

# Mark all resource files as HEADER_ONLY to avoid (for instance) Visual
Studio interpreting obj files as regular object files...
SET_SOURCE_FILES_PROPERTIES( ${RT_ALL_RSRC_FILES} PROPERTIES
HEADER_FILE_ONLY TRUE)

Also tried:

# Mark all resource files as HEADER_ONLY to avoid (for instance) Visual
Studio interpreting obj files as regular object files...
FOREACH( RSRC_FILE ${RT_ALL_RSRC_FILES} )
	SET_SOURCE_FILES_PROPERTIES( ${RSRC_FILE} PROPERTIES
HEADER_FILE_ONLY TRUE )
ENDFOREACH()

Thanks,
Daniel

Hi Daniel.

Yes, that's how Visual Studio shows excluded files. If you exclude a file by
setting its "Excluded from build" property manually, you get the same.
