Here is a code snippet from a project that I use that copies some files to the build directory.

#-- Copy all the HDF5 files from the test directory into the build directory
SET (HDF5_REFERENCE_TEST_FILES
  tnullspace.h5
  family_v1.7_00003.h5
  family_v1.7_00001.h5
  mergemsg.h5
  tbogus.h5
  tbad_msg_count.h5
  group_new.h5
  deflate.h5
  noencoder.h5
  family_v1.7_00000.h5
  le_extlink1.h5
  tmtimeo.h5
  tmtimen.h5
  fill_old.h5
  tlayouto.h5
  family_v1.7_00002.h5
  th5s.h5
  tarrold.h5
)

FOREACH ( h5_file ${HDF5_REFERENCE_TEST_FILES} )
   SET (dest "${PROJECT_BINARY_DIR}/${h5_file}")
   MESSAGE(STATUS " Copying ${dest}")
   ADD_CUSTOM_COMMAND (
     TARGET     ${HDF5_TEST_LIB_NAME}
     POST_BUILD
     COMMAND    ${CMAKE_COMMAND}
ARGS -E copy_if_different ${HDF5_TEST_SOURCE_DIR}/$ {h5_file} ${dest}
     )

ENDFOREACH ( h5_file ${HDF5_REFERENCE_TEST_FILES} )

Hi,

I would like to create a custom target that copy "several" files (one, two or n files, but at least one) to a directory. I know how to do it with one file:

add_custom_target(my_copy_target
${CMAKE_COMMAND} -E copy ${_inputfile} ${dirOUT}/)

but, I really don't know how to do it with a list of files.

Someone could help me?

Regards,

Leo
