Maybe right about the cyclic dependency,

I used instead a cmakefile-local custom target to run all the time... with

Yes i have a DEPENDS.

What I want is this command to run post build of the entire project (my top
level project), this command produces a sql file,
and I want it only to run if any of its dependencies changed.
