I'm experiencing trouble getting cmake to copy DLL files to my executable output path in visual studio after the target is built.
It seems that the CMAKE_CFG_INTDIR variable is being expanded to: "$"(OutDir) This causes the .dll files to be copied to the filename '$(OutDir)', not into the 'Debug' or 'Release' sub-directory as I would expect. Here is the relevant cmake code: IF(WIN32) FILE(GLOB QT_DLLS "${QT_LIBRARY_DIR}/../bin/*.dll") GET_FILENAME_COMPONENT(PTHREAD_LIBRARY_DIR "${PTHREAD_LIBRARY}" PATH) FILE(GLOB PTHREAD_DLLS "${PTHREAD_LIBRARY_DIR}/*.dll") SET(DESTINATION ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/${CMAKE_CFG_INTDIR}) FOREACH(DLL_FILENAME ${QT_DLLS} ${PTHREAD_DLLS}) ADD_CUSTOM_COMMAND( TARGET ${PROJECT_NAME} POST_BUILD COMMAND ${CMAKE_COMMAND} -E copy ${DLL_FILENAME} ${DESTINATION} VERBATIM) MESSAGE(COPY ${DLL_FILENAME} ${DESTINATION}) ENDFOREACH(DLL_FILENAME) ENDIF(WIN32) And here are a few lines from my VC++ buildlog.htm: "C:\Program Files (x86)\CMake 2.4\bin\cmake.exe" -E copy C:/Qt/4.3.1/lib/../bin/QtXml4.dll C:/bin/viewer/"$"(OutDir) "C:\Program Files (x86)\CMake 2.4\bin\cmake.exe" -E copy C:/Qt/4.3.1/lib/../bin/QtXmld4.dll C:/bin/viewer/"$"(OutDir) For some reason either cmake is quoting the $ in the expansion of the ${CMAKE_CFG_INTDIR} variable. Does anyone know a fix for this? -McKay D ____________________________________________________________________________________ Don't let your dream ride pass you by. Make it a reality with Yahoo!
