This is not the solution that you want...but it works for me

I use a configure step in cmake to copy any resource the app will need them to the build dir in the location ${PROJECT_BINARY_DIR}/resources
ok.
then when loading them I do this...

//----------------------------------------------------------------------------
std::string GetResourcePath()
{
std::string apppath = QCoreApplication::applicationDirPath().toAscii().constData();
  vtksys::SystemTools::ConvertToUnixSlashes(apppath);
  if (!vtksys::SystemTools::FileIsDirectory(apppath.c_str())) {
    throw std::runtime_error("Can't locate Resources");
  }
  std::string ResourceDir = apppath + "/resources";
#if WIN32
  ResourceDir = vtksys::SystemTools::LowerCase(ResourceDir);
vtksys::SystemTools::ReplaceString(ResourceDir, "bin/debug/resources", "bin/resources"); vtksys::SystemTools::ReplaceString(ResourceDir, "bin/release/resources", "bin/resources"); vtksys::SystemTools::ReplaceString(ResourceDir, "bin/relwithdebinfo/resources", "bin/resources");
#endif
  return ResourceDir;
}

on win32 it does what we want. on other system it is just skipped.

This had been discussed in
http://public.kitware.com/pipermail/cmake/2004-January/004644.html

Now more than two years have passed by and the problem still remains. In
visual studio the generated files go into a Release/Debug subdir
depending on the build type choosen in the IDE. If your application
depends on relative pathes to find other stuff (like plugins) this is a
problem. I really would like to skip these subdirs to make the directory
structure of the build output identitcal to what you get with nmake or make.

Any ideas?
