I haven't tried that, and I think it could work if I could make sure I kept track of all the possible variables that could go into making the arguments.<br><br>Is there something fundamental about CMake that would prevent it from detecting this change? I'm guessing that CMake would have to keep a record of all the custom commands that exist in a project and then compare them upon regeneration. I imagine that would not be an easy task.<br>

You should be able to configure a file into your binary directory that references all the option variables of interest and then make a dependency on that file for your add_custom_command.<br><br><div>That way, the file will change only if one of the options changes in cmake and the dependency on it should trigger a re-run of the custom command...</div>
