Well I figured out the paths to the .OBJ files. Note they're coming
out as .OBJ files on Windows, both for MinGW and for MSVC. When I
dump my .OBJ file absolute pathnames into ADD_LIBRARY, CMakeSetup
complains that "the source file doesn't exist," because of course
they haven't been built yet. I tried
SET_SOURCE_FILES_PROPERTIES(${theobjs}PROPERTIES GENERATED true), but
it doesn't suppress the error. I don't think that function thinks
they're source files. Says it tried just about every extension,
except the .obj and .o extensions I might actually be interested in.
Not sure, must be something wrong in your script. The following works
with nmake and gmake with cl, and works on linux.
I was trying to propagate SET_SOURCE_FILES_PROPERTIES to a
subdirectory. For GENERATED this makes sense, as files typically have 1
point of generation. So, it would be reasonable to set GENERATED once
at the place they're generated, rather than several times wherever they
are consumed. I am not sure if directory propagation would be
reasonable for other properties though. Is this worthy of a feature
request, or is it not doable / adviseable?
Cheers,
