Summary0010555: source_groups not working as expected for Visual Studio 10
Descriptionfile(GLOB SOURCE_FILES ../sick_sad_world/*.cpp)
list(APPEND PROJ_SOURCE_FILES ${SOURCE_FILES})
source_group(source_files/sick_sad_world FILES ${SOURCE_FILES})

when adding files to a source group without any files in the root source file, the source group is missing in Visual Studio 10. there are even some files not visible at all. when inspecting the generated .vcxproj and vcxproj.filters files everything looks normal. so i think this could be an issue of VS10. BUT, when using a native solution/project file it is possible to create such a scenario.

i created a repro case (attached file). when you add the commented part in the CMakeLists.txt file everything works as expected. this part only adds a dummy file to the root source_group.

The problem seems to be the following: The *.filters file generator simply needs to declare a separate filter for those groups that have no files. For example:

# Foo group is empty (i.e. it has no files directly):
source_group( Foo\\Bar FILES main.cpp )

There needs to be the following in the .filters file:

<Filter Include="Foo">
  <UniqueIdentifier>{ %GUID% }</UniqueIdentifier>
</Filter>

In addition to this (which is currently being generated)

<Filter Include="Foo\Bar">
  <UniqueIdentifier>{ %GUID% }</UniqueIdentifier>
</Filter>
