[cmake-developers] Timestamp of VS-generator rule files

[Mike.Pagel at bmw.de]

MAIN_DEPENDENCY does not easily work in our case (tried it), unless we change a lot of targets in the project, which is not trivial. I'll be trying to submit a patch, thanks for the offer. In case I have questions like "can I use this API or should I use that one to do X", would this mailing list be the right place to ask?

Yes, I think that makes sense.  Those files are only there because the
IDE project files need a place to attach the commands.  Care to work on
a patch for this?

Meanwhile you may be able to work around the problem using a MAIN_DEPENDENCY
of your own.
