Hej hej,
for some reason your mail was not delivered to me and I only stumbled upon it
by chance in the archives (while trying to find out where another one of my
mails to the list disappeared to).
In any case, yes, I am adding the .rc file to my add_library command. The issue
I have is that if I use mylib.rc in add_library and have an
add_custom_command(OUTPUT mylib.rc ...) nothing is created but no error message
is produced either (i.e. silently ignored). I have to use
${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/mylib.rc explicitly. For most files (such as
generated .cpp files) using a relative path just works, because relative paths
used in add_custom_command are interpreted relative to
${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}.
Original text:
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?
Sincerely,
Jakob
