Re: [CMake] Why SET() not support regular expression ?
Maybe a macro can call cmake for only this part that need to be regenerated, in this way if the macro detects thats a glob has changed it can recreate rules that´s depends upon this GLOB, Only and idea what you think about this?

Any other ideas for adding multiple files and get it updated automatically. Thanks FILE does recalculate the GLOB every time CMake is run, but CMake is not invoked every time you type make. CMake is ran once to setup the build directory, but after that when you run make it will call cmake only if a CMakeLists.txtis modified. So the only way to run the FILE command at each build would be to run cmake at every build. This can be done, but it would be a waste time. -- Daniel ___ CMake mailing list CMake@cmake.org http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake

So you are talking about determining arbitrary program execution based on the value of the var. In practice I don't see how you'd cleanly separate that.

RE: [CMake] Why SET() not support regular expression ?
Hi, Alan Thanks for your suggestion.But when using GLOB, the cmake would not update automatically. So now, I think that the best way is added those files by myself. Best regards Yang If you do a FILE(GLOB cmake will not detect when files are added to the directory and will *not* re-run automatically. If you explicitly list your files in CMakeLists.txt, then when it changes, cmake re-runs automatically as part of a build. Don't use the FILE(GLOB technique unless you are willing to live with this fact... HTH, David -Original Message- From: Alan W. Irwin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 2008年1月18日 19:29 To: Yang, Y.
