This has been proposed several times and never accepted because file(GLOB) is a primitive. As Petr said our documentation explicitly discourages the use case in question. Those projects that wish to ignore our advice can use list(SORT) themselves to get reproducible source file ordering after file(GLOB). -Brad -- Powered by www.kitware.com Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Kitware offers various services to support the CMake community.
