<p>This property need not be used to specify the dependency of a source
file on a generated header file that it includes. Although the
property was originally introduced for this purpose, it is no longer
necessary. If the generated header file is created by a custom
command in the same target as the source file, the automatic
dependency scanning process will recognize the dependency. If the
generated header file is created by another target, an inter-target
dependency should be created with the <span class="target" id="index-0-command:add_dependencies"></span><a class="reference internal" href="../command/add_dependencies.html#command:add_dependencies" title="add_dependencies"><code class="xref cmake cmake-command docutils literal"><span class="pre">add_dependencies()</span></code></a>
