Use the file(WRITE ) command instead. + +:: + + write_file(filename "message to write"... [APPEND]) + +The first argument is the file name, the rest of the arguments are +messages to write. If the argument APPEND is specified, then the +message will be appended. + +NOTE 1: file(WRITE ... and file(APPEND ... do exactly the same as +this one but add some more functionality. + +NOTE 2: When using write_file the produced file cannot be used as an +input to CMake (CONFIGURE_FILE, source file ...) because it will lead +to an infinite loop. Use configure_file if you want to generate input +files to CMake. |
