You can use the ADD_CUSTOM_COMMAND cmake command to run custom scripts but you need to clarify a bit further. You mention "this functionality to create ./abc this file should generate after running make". This isn't clear at all. Are you trying to create a shell script (abc) with CMake code or do they already exist? If they already exist you could parse the contents of the desc files using FILE(READ... and STRING(REGEX... but there may be a far easier solution to your problem. Without knowing what a "desc" file is or what these shell scripts do it's unlikely anyone's going to be able to offer any useful suggestions for you on this mailing list. -- Philip Lowman
