I added these lines:<br><br>set_directory_properties(<br> PROPERTIES ADDITIONAL_MAKE_CLEAN_FILES<br> "${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/abc.txt"<br>)<br><br># check the location where abc.txt is supposed to be deleted from<br>
message("CURRENT_BINARY_DIR: ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}")<br><br>to the end of my CMakeLists.txt and then created abc.txt in the cmake build directory. I can confirm that the abc.txt file was not deleted by a clean solution. I tried this with Visual Studio 2012 and Visual Studio 2008 (both installs are the Express editions) and the results were identical.<br>

</div>Can you manually set the ADDITIONAL_MAKE_CLEAN_FILES directory property to<br>
some file and check whether this file is deleted when you clean ?<br>
<br>
Something like<br>
<br>
set_directory_properties(PROPERTIES ADDITIONAL_MAKE_CLEAN_FILES<br>
"${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/abc.txt" )<br>
<br>
<br>
then just create such a file in the build dir, and clean.<br>
It should be removed then.<br>
If it is not, then this is the reason why clean doesn't clean automoc<br>
properly.<br>
