Olivier,

This should be possible to do with the code pasted below BUT due to Bug
#4057 the particular folder hierarchy you have defined above will ONLY
work in CVS versions of CMake, not in 2.4.8.

http://www.cmake.org/Bug/view.php?id=4057

If you need a solution that works in 2.4.8 you will have to use unique
folder names.  In other words, you can't have "folder1" appear in more
than one place.

You can download prebuilt nightly CVS builds for Win32 from the link below:
http://www.cmake.org/files/vCVS
(for today's build you would download cmake-2.5.20080223-win32-x86.zip
<http://www.cmake.org/files/vCVS/cmake-2.5.20080223-win32-x86.zip>
extract and run CMakeSetup from within the bin folder)

SET(group1_hdrs    file1_1.h  file1_2.h)
SET(group2_hdrs    file2_1.h  file2_2.h)
SET(group1_srcs    file1_1.cc file1_2.cc)
SET(group2_srcs    file2_1.cc file2_2.cc)

SOURCE_GROUP("Header Files\\folder1" FILES ${group1_hdrs})
SOURCE_GROUP("Header Files\\folder2" FILES ${group2_hdrs})
SOURCE_GROUP("Source Files\\folder1" FILES ${group1_srcs})
SOURCE_GROUP("Source Files\\folder2" FILES ${group2_srcs})
