Hi All,
I have a situation where I need to:
- create some dirs in the build directory
- create symlinks to the above dirs in the source directory
The creation part works well, I'm using add_custom_command(OUTPUT
...) and add_custom_target() which depends onthe output of custom
command. The cmake_clean.cmake is shown below. However, when I run 'make
clean' which finaly runs 'cmake -P
CMakeFiles/Test_dirs.dir/cmake_clean.cmake', the first invocation of
'make clean' only removes the dirs from the build dir. I have to run
'make clean' a second time to get rid of the symlinks that were created
in the source dir.
Does anybody know how to fix the situation, I'd like a single
invocation of 'make clean' to delete the dirs in the build directory as
well as the symlinks in the source dir.
TIA,
Ashok
