[CMake] file INSTALL cannot set modification time on

[Eric Clark]

Hello,

I have a few Visual Studio projects that I set a post-build event in Visual Studio to copy the DLLs, LIBs and a few other files up into a directory used for development. I do this by running the following custom command:

add_custom_command(TARGET ${PROJECT_NAME} POST_BUILD COMMAND
                                                 ${CMAKE_COMMAND} -D "BUILD_TYPE:STRING=\$(Configuration)"
                                                 -D "CMAKE_INSTALL_LOCAL_ONLY:STRING=TRUE"
                                                 -D "CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:STRING=${ARA_DIR}"
                                                 -D "COMPONENT:STRING=development"
                                                 -P "${PROJECT_BINARY_DIR}/cmake_install.cmake" VERBATIM)

I can guarantee you that all of the paths are correct and that this used to work no problem. Now, every now and then I get the following error:

12>PostBuildEvent:

This is on a specific project, but it is not always the same project and it happens very randomly. If I build the solution multiple times, it will eventually make it through everything, but I always have to build the solution multiple times. Does anyone know why this would be happening and if there is something I could do to prevent it?

Thank You,
Eric
