[CMake] Copy dlls to release and debug folder

Hi,

I was successful in creating and building a project using CMake on Windows
(Visual Studio). After the build when I try to run the application it
throws an error asking for the dlls of Qt (I know it is a common case in
Windows, usually we do copy the dlls to debug/release folder where the exe
resides). When I searched the mailing list, I have seen an advise to
use "add_custom_command(TARGET
...)". Is this the right approach? Wont it be executed after each build,
thus causing repeated dll copies?

Can you please suggest me the right way?

Thanks,
  Lloyd
