AUTOUIC: Fix cyclic dependency between generated UI headers and timestamp (!6359) · Merge requests · CMake / CMake

Alexey Edelev requested to merge semlanik/cmake:fix_ui_headers_cycling_dependency into master Jul 16, 2021

Once the generated UI headers are created by UIC they also are involved into processing in next run on ninja. Autogen adds ui_*.h files to the deps file ui_*.h and this cause timestamp start depend on ui_*.h. Meantime ui_*.h depend on timestamp because of the explicit rules added by !5803 (merged). This avoids adding the ui_*.h to deps file at second ninja run.

Fixes: #16776
Backport: release
Topic-rename: autogen-ui-header-depends
