You should be able to use target_sources() to do that, although I'd
recommend you create the target higher up rather than burying it deeper
down in the subdirs. It would seem more logical to create the target at the
point above where all the subdirs that add sources are. Maybe have a read
of the following article for a more detailed discussion of using
target_sources() in this way:
