"ExtSubProj" is the name of a custom CMake target.
You should be able to:
add_dependencies(mylib1 ExtSubProj)
add_dependencies(mylib2 ExtSubProj)
And get ExtSubProj should build first before mylib1 and mylib2. (Assuming
mylib1 and mylib2 are add_library targets.) Also works with add_executable
targets, or other custom targets.
