"Cannot find source file" when header has file extension .hpp

[hickford]

My tooling requires I use extension .hpp rather than .h for header files. This gives an error from cmake.

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:27 (add_executable):
Cannot find source file:

nucleotide_count.h

Tried extensions .c .C .c++ .cc .cpp .cxx .m .M .mm .h .hh .h++ .hm .hpp .hxx .in .txx

[NobbZ]

Either teach your tooling to accept *.h as well, or change the line that CMake is complaining about to search for hpp. You also need to change the Testfile then to include the hpp.

@NobbZ is correct, there isn't a reasonable way for us to support both naming conventions.

Thanks

If it helps anyone else, here's a patch for CMakeLists.txt

I'd send a pull request but not sure how to update 47 files

This wouldn't solve the problem, as you still need to fix the Testsuite manually. And you can not avoid that unless you create some additional compilation there. That again would clutter the testfiles
