cmake：每次生成時都重新生成文件

Question

由腳本（暫時替換為touch ）創建generated.h 。 如何在每次運行make時重新生成此文件？ 如以下示例中那樣調用rm會產生錯誤。

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.5.1)
project(MyProject)

set_source_files_properties(generated.h PROPERTIES GENERATED TRUE)

add_executable(jr
    jr.cpp
    generated.h
    )

add_custom_command(
        OUTPUT generated.h
        COMMAND rm generated.h
        COMMAND touch generated.h
        )

Answer 1

代替add_custom_command使用add_custom_target ：它會在每次運行構建時執行：

add_custom_target(regenerate
    COMMAND rm -f generated.h # Remove file if it exists.
    COMMAND touch generated.h
)

# Force executable to be compiled after regeneration takes a place
add_dependencies(jr regenerate)

# You need to hint compiler about location of the header file generated.
include_directories(${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR})
