(So accept it, and move on...) :-) You can *either* do add_custom_command stuff and have a bare Visual Studio project without any source files in (but that drives your build through Visual Studio and your existing makefiles without intellisense and all that)... *Or* you can convert the makefiles you do have into CMakeLists.txt files that list all the sources, do add_library, add_executable and include_directories calls and generate VS project files that *replace* your makefiles... But not both. (At least not without major CMake re-work...) Why not convert your existing makefiles and just use CMake? It wouldn't be that much more effort than getting CMake to generate a hybrid/fake thing like you're trying to do already... HTH, David
