If you don't want that file to be compiled, then setting the language to 
"C" is wrong, and is likely to produce unexpected behavior.  It is 
telling CMake that the file is a C file and it should be compiled. 
CMake should of course not create a VS project that fails to load 
because of this, but it might do other odd things when you try and treat 
a .h file like it is a .c file.
