I am trying to use the LOCATION property of a library target in VS. VS is a bit complicated, because a single generate creates all 4 targets (Debug, Release, etc.) I want to add a custom target command. Here is what is in the file:

_targ is a variable that contains a previous created target (ex. "temt")


get_target_property(TARG_FILENAME ${_targ} LOCATION)

add_custom_command(TARGET ${_targ} POST_BUILD
   COMMAND ${CMAKE_COMMAND} -E copy ${TARG_FILENAME}
        ${CMAKE_HOME_DIRECTORY}/bin)

Now, in VS, for Debug, the target is correctly called:

Linker:Output:

C:\Users\baisa\Emergent\build_dbg\src\temt\lib\Debug\temt_dbg.dll


But the Post Build Event:Command Line for Debug configuration contains:

"C:\Program Files\CMake 2.6\bin\cmake.exe" -E copy C:/Users/baisa/Emergent/build_dbg/src/temt/lib/$(OutDir)/temt.dll C:/Users/baisa/Emergent/bin

Notice that the _dbg is missing

I tried fudging this by making the filename myself, and embedding a * wildcard, but it seems that the CMAKE copy command doesn't process wildcards.
