Thanks. VERBATIM was the problem. After, removing it, the code works
perfectly. Thanks!
Anyway, I am a little bit puzzled with documentation, as it states:

I hope, my code will still work in future releases :-) .
So, finally, solved, and it works now! Thanks.

Your initial attempt looks reasonable... Did you try it without the
"VERBATIM" argument to the ADD_CUSTOM_COMMAND?
This sort of copy command should work if invoked from Visual Studio,
even with the $(OutDir) reference...
HTH,

Dears cmakers,
I am about to finish my "dual gui/console" behaviour for
InventorTools utilities. Compilation of whole set of executables is
perfectly handled by cmake, but final "installation" procedure does
not work.
Can cmake handle this situation?:
1. cmake builds all the executables of the projects
"Dual" behaviour requires .com suffix, so all *.com are placed in
the build directories. On MSVC, it is usually at
build/(project_name)/(debug|release)/*.com
This works perfectly.
2. The last project makes one .exe for "dual" behaviour. It is called
autoconsole.exe. Before using cmake, I copied autoconsole.exe to
all other
build directories to reside together with their .com and renamed
them to
the same name as .com except with .exe suffix. This worked
perfectly using
post-build script, but how to make it with cmake?
I unsuccessfully tried two options:
- to make post-build step by
add_custom_command (TARGET autoconsole
POST_BUILD
COMMAND ${CMAKE_COMMAND} -E copy
${PROJECT_BINARY_DIR}/${CMAKE_CFG_INTDIR}/autoconsole.exe
${ivview_BINARY_DIR}/${CMAKE_CFG_INTDIR}/ivview.exe
COMMENT "Copying executables..." VERBATIM)
This does not work because ${CMAKE_CFG_INITDIR} is set to $(IntDir)
on Visual Studio. So, the copy command fails because it expect
regular path. (And $(IntDir) differs among different debug/release
configurations).
- to make it part of install process by
install (TARGETS autoconsole
RUNTIME
DESTINATION bin
RENAME ivview.exe)
It copies the file, but RENAME does not work (It probably works only
for PROGRAMS and FILES signatures). I was planning to use this
command about ten times to get all the required .exe.
Please, is there any way how to proceed, to get all of about ten .exe
executables to their places, either with their .com counterparts
(preferred), or to final install destination?
Thanks,
John
