[Cmake] Basic questions

[William A. Hoffman]

SOURCE_GROUP should do what you want, you may be using it incorrectly.

SOURCE_GROUP: Define a grouping for sources in the makefile.

  SOURCE_GROUP(name [REGULAR_EXPRESSION regex] [FILES src1 src2 ...])

Defines a group into which sources will be placed in project files. This is mainly used to setup file tabs in Visual Studio. Any file whose name is listed or matches the regular expression will be placed in this group. If a file matches multiple groups, the LAST group that explicitly lists the file will be favored, if any. If no group explicitly lists the file, the LAST group whose regular expression matches the file will be favored. For backwards compatibility,this command is also supports the format SOURCE_GROUP(name regex).
