Hej, Some more information about how you setup things would be useful. For instance: you would need to add the filename of the generated .rc file to the executable/library for which it is generated: are you doing that?
In the application I currently work on, we have created a small function to wrap the generation of the .rc file. I just checked that we actually also build a full path. That actually makes sense, because the generated file is put in the ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR} and *not* in the current source dir. In other words: we could never accomplish this with any type of ‘relative’ path anyway. Are you maybe also mixing up the *SOURCE_DIR and *BINARY_DIR?
