Add a target with no output so it will always be built.

</div>
Adds a target with the given name that executes the given commands.
The target has no output file and is always considered out of date
even if the commands try to create a file with the name of the target.
Use the <a class="reference internal" href="add_custom_command.html#command:add_custom_command" title="add_custom_command"><code class="xref cmake cmake-command docutils literal notranslate">add_custom_command()</code></a> command to generate a file with
dependencies. By default nothing depends on the custom target. Use
the <a class="reference internal" href="add_dependencies.html#command:add_dependencies" title="add_dependencies"><code class="xref cmake cmake-command docutils literal notranslate">add_dependencies()</code></a> command to add dependencies to or
from other targets.
The options are:
<dl>
<dt><code class="docutils literal notranslate">ALL</code></dt><dd>Indicate that this target should be added to the default build
target so that it will be run every time (the command cannot be
called <code class="docutils literal notranslate">ALL</code>).
</dd>
<dt><code class="docutils literal notranslate">BYPRODUCTS</code></dt><dd><div class="versionadded">
New in version 3.2.
</div>
Specify the files the command is expected to produce but whose
modification time may or may not be updated on subsequent builds.
If a byproduct name is a relative path it will be interpreted
relative to the build tree directory corresponding to the
current source directory.
Each byproduct file will be marked with the <a class="reference internal" href="../prop_sf/GENERATED.html#prop_sf:GENERATED" title="GENERATED"><code class="xref cmake cmake-prop_sf docutils literal notranslate">GENERATED</code></a>
source file property automatically.
See policy <a class="reference internal" href="../policy/CMP0058.html#policy:CMP0058" title="CMP0058"><code class="xref cmake cmake-policy docutils literal notranslate">CMP0058</code></a> for the motivation behind this feature.
Explicit specification of byproducts is supported by the
<a class="reference internal" href="../generator/Ninja.html#generator:Ninja" title="Ninja"><code class="xref cmake cmake-generator docutils literal notranslate">Ninja</code></a> generator to tell the <code class="docutils literal notranslate">ninja</code> build tool
how to regenerate byproducts when they are missing. It is
also useful when other build rules (e.g. custom commands)
depend on the byproducts. Ninja requires a build rule for any
generated file on which another rule depends even if there are
order-only dependencies to ensure the byproducts will be
available before their dependents build.
The <a class="reference internal" href="../manual/cmake-generators.7.html#makefile-generators">Makefile Generators</a> will remove <code class="docutils literal notranslate">BYPRODUCTS</code> and other
<a class="reference internal" href="../prop_sf/GENERATED.html#prop_sf:GENERATED" title="GENERATED"><code class="xref cmake cmake-prop_sf docutils literal notranslate">GENERATED</code></a> files during <code class="docutils literal notranslate">make clean</code>.
<div class="versionadded">
New in version 3.20: Arguments to <code class="docutils literal notranslate">BYPRODUCTS</code> may use a restricted set of
<a class="reference internal" href="../manual/cmake-generator-expressions.7.html#manual:cmake-generator-expressions(7)" title="cmake-generator-expressions(7)"><code class="xref cmake cmake-manual docutils literal notranslate">generator expressions</code></a>.
<a class="reference internal" href="../manual/cmake-generator-expressions.7.html#target-dependent-queries">Target-dependent expressions</a> are not
permitted.
</div>
</dd>
<dt><code class="docutils literal notranslate">COMMAND</code></dt><dd>Specify the command-line(s) to execute at build time.
If more than one <code class="docutils literal notranslate">COMMAND</code> is specified they will be executed in order,
but not necessarily composed into a stateful shell or batch script.
(To run a full script, use the <a class="reference internal" href="configure_file.html#command:configure_file" title="configure_file"><code class="xref cmake cmake-command docutils literal notranslate">configure_file()</code></a> command or the
<a class="reference internal" href="file.html#command:file" title="file"><code class="xref cmake cmake-command docutils literal notranslate">file(GENERATE)</code></a> command to create it, and then specify
a <code class="docutils literal notranslate">COMMAND</code> to launch it.)
If <code class="docutils literal notranslate">COMMAND</code> specifies an executable target name (created by the
<a class="reference internal" href="add_executable.html#command:add_executable" title="add_executable"><code class="xref cmake cmake-command docutils literal notranslate">add_executable()</code></a> command), it will automatically be replaced
by the location of the executable created at build time if either of
the following is true:
<ul>
<li>The target is not being cross-compiled (i.e. the
<a class="reference internal" href="../variable/CMAKE_CROSSCOMPILING.html#variable:CMAKE_CROSSCOMPILING" title="CMAKE_CROSSCOMPILING"><code class="xref cmake cmake-variable docutils literal notranslate">CMAKE_CROSSCOMPILING</code></a> variable is not set to true).</li>
<li><div class="versionadded">
New in version 3.6: The target is being cross-compiled and an emulator is provided (i.e.
its <a class="reference internal" href="../prop_tgt/CROSSCOMPILING_EMULATOR.html#prop_tgt:CROSSCOMPILING_EMULATOR" title="CROSSCOMPILING_EMULATOR"><code class="xref cmake cmake-prop_tgt docutils literal notranslate">CROSSCOMPILING_EMULATOR</code></a> target property is set).
In this case, the contents of <a class="reference internal" href="../prop_tgt/CROSSCOMPILING_EMULATOR.html#prop_tgt:CROSSCOMPILING_EMULATOR" title="CROSSCOMPILING_EMULATOR"><code class="xref cmake cmake-prop_tgt docutils literal notranslate">CROSSCOMPILING_EMULATOR</code></a> will be
prepended to the command before the location of the target executable.
</div>
</li>
</ul>
If neither of the above conditions are met, it is assumed that the
command name is a program to be found on the <code class="docutils literal notranslate">PATH</code> at build time.
Arguments to <code class="docutils literal notranslate">COMMAND</code> may use
<a class="reference internal" href="../manual/cmake-generator-expressions.7.html#manual:cmake-generator-expressions(7)" title="cmake-generator-expressions(7)"><code class="xref cmake cmake-manual docutils literal notranslate">generator expressions</code></a>.
Use the <a class="reference internal" href="../manual/cmake-generator-expressions.7.html#genex:TARGET_FILE" title="TARGET_FILE"><code class="xref cmake cmake-genex docutils literal notranslate">TARGET_FILE</code></a> generator expression to refer to the location
of a target later in the command line (i.e. as a command argument rather
than as the command to execute).
Whenever one of the following target based generator expressions are used as
a command to execute or is mentioned in a command argument, a target-level
dependency will be added automatically so that the mentioned target will be
built before this custom target (see policy <a class="reference internal" href="../policy/CMP0112.html#policy:CMP0112" title="CMP0112"><code class="xref cmake cmake-policy docutils literal notranslate">CMP0112</code></a>).
