Does the following examplary project do what you intend?
CMAKE_MINIMUM_REQUIRED(VERSION 2.8 FATAL_ERROR)
PROJECT(P C)
SET(CMAKE_VERBOSE_MAKEFILE ON)
# The library target:
FILE(WRITE ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/f.c "void f(void){}\n")
ADD_LIBRARY(f SHARED f.c)
# The README file:
FILE(WRITE ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/README "Very important information!\n")
# The ZIP file command:
ADD_CUSTOM_COMMAND(OUTPUT ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/f.zip
COMMAND zip -j ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/f.zip
${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/README
$<TARGET_FILE:f>
DEPENDS ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/README)
# The ZIP file target:
ADD_CUSTOM_TARGET(zip ALL DEPENDS ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/f.zip)
# Trigger ZIP file target after library target:
ADD_CUSTOM_COMMAND(TARGET f POST_BUILD
COMMAND ${CMAKE_COMMAND} -E remove ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/f.zip
COMMAND ${CMAKE_COMMAND} --build ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}
--config $<CONFIGURATION>
--target zip)
The basic idea is the decomposition of the ZIP file's generation into a
custom target, an OUTPUT-style custom command and a TARGET-style custom
command, the latter in conjunction with CMake's --build switch.
