RC: non-preprocessor dependencies of windows resource files don’t trigger resource recompilation
I have a windows resource file, which contains an icon and a manifest. Whenever one of them changes, I want the resources to be recompiled.
Trying to find an answer to this question, I stumbled upon OBJECT_DEPENDS which allows me to fix the issue.
But as the documentation suggests, it shouldn’t be necessary to do this manually.
out-of-the-box it neither works automatically with the MinGW Makefiles
nor Ninja
generators.
