<div dir="ltr">We have a project that builds some executables,
then uses those executables to build some additional build
artifacts. We have this working well using makefiles on Windows
and various unix variants. I decided it would be nice to try
doing a build using a Visual Studio project. The various
compile/link steps worked great, but any step that needed to use
one of the built executables was failing to find the
executables. An examination of the build tree revealed that
Visual Studio was placing the executables in bin\Debug rather
than the expected bin directory.

Is there a more appropriate method we should be doing to locate this executable that will work using both the NMake build process and a Visual Studio project?</pre>

Try "COMMAND rexximage".<br>
If "rexximage" is an executable target (as created by
add_executable()) add_custom_command() will substitute the actual
command.<br>
