[CMake] Post-Generate commands

[LaViolette, Alan]

What I really want to do is generate Intel Compiler project files for
the just generated visual studio project files.  I am trying to do this
without any cmake C++ changes at the moment.  I can generate the icproj
during the cmake run but have no way to generate a new solution, so I
have a script that will process the solution and projects to generate a
new solution.  I know this is not a great solution but it currently
works.

This is not easily possible without modifying the CMake C++ code. (Where
it would be fairly easy to add a feature like this...) Perhaps filing a
feature request for a "post generate action" would be the best thing to
do.

However, in the meantime, you could always add a custom target that
executes your stuff at the beginning of the build, and make all other
top level targets depend on it with add_dependencies. Would that work in
your case?

You can use add_custom_command(TARGET your_target POST_BUILD COMMAND
...) to
have commands executed after a target has been built.

Or do you mean at the end of the cmake run ?
What do you want to do ? Please let us know some more details, otherwise
it's
hard to help.
