FILE( xxx) is CMake-time command (it runs when CMake runs) when you do "make" your are at "Build time" at Build time, cmake may be [automatically] invoked again if some target (library, executable, custom etc...) NEEDS a re-run because of a dependency. In your example there is no mean for CMake to know that FILE(COPY ...) generates a build time dependency. So when a new file is added either your re-run cmake yourself or you try Michael proposal which adds this kind of "build time dependency" using custom target. -- Erk Membre de l'April - « promouvoir et défendre le logiciel libre » - http://www.april.org _______________________________________________ Powered by www.kitware.com Visit other Kitware open-source projects at http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Follow this link to subscribe/unsubscribe: http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake
