Sorry, It didn't register at first that about the cpp file that needs to
get compiled into the library.
That makes it a little more complicated.
In that case you need to keep ${MyParserOutput} and set the GENERATED
properties for the files.
Also the building the custom target needs to be done in a separate
directory as the add_custom_commands() need to be in a different
CMakeLists.txt file from the libraries. Otherwise the rules get pulled
into the libraries and cause the commands to be run multiple times.
