Hi, I try to understand the concept of generator expressions with little avail.
For the current project I thought, I could use them in combination with TARGET_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES. Instead of writting IF(t1) TARGET_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES(cTest PRIVATE path/to/h1 PRIVATE path/to/h2) ELSE(t1) TARGET_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES(cTest PRIVATE path/to/h1) ENDIF(t1) it should be more elegant SET(t1 ON) ADD_EXECUTABLE(cTest CTest.c cTest.h) TARGET_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES(cTest PRIVATE path/to/h1 $< $<BOOL:t1>:"PRIVATE path/to/h2") Of course this creates a major disaster. -------------------------- CMake Warning (dev) in CMakeLists.txt: Policy CMP0021 is not set: Fatal error on relative paths in INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES target property. Run "cmake --help-policy CMP0021" for policy details. Use the cmake_policy command to set the policy and suppress this warning. Found relative path while evaluating include directories of "cTest": ""PRIVATE path/to/h2"" This warning is for project developers. Use -Wno-dev to suppress it. cmake: /home/gildemeister/Picture/work-c/CMakeSrc/cmake-3.2.1/Source/cmLocalGenerator.cxx:2923: std::string cmLocalGenerator::ConvertToRelativePath(const std::vector<std::basic_string<char> >&, const string&, bool): Assertion `in_remote[0] != '\"'' failed. Abgebrochen (Speicherabzug geschrieben) -------------------------- Is there a way to solve this with a generator expression?
