Hi, I am trying to force the BUILD step of an ExternalProject_Add target to be run - always. I have found several wiki articles, and references in the archives of this list, to setting an ALWAYS option for the stage I want to force to run each time. The problem is I can’t find any documentation on the exact syntax to use - can someone please enlighten me? (This is for a project where the files are on the local disk when the build is run, but may change due to external sync mechanisms - right now the build system never notices this)
I’m guessing it must be something like: ExternalProject_Add(Foo PREFIX ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR} DOWNLOAD_COMMAND "" # no need to download BUILD_ALWAYS # <<< but is this correct? SOURCE_DIR ${CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_DIR}/path/to/foo …... ) Kind regards, James Turner -- Powered by www.kitware.com Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Kitware offers various services to support the CMake community.
