[SOLVED] Can one add further source files to an executable once defined?

Issue

Given I have defined an executable with its main source file in a CMakeList.txt file:

ADD_EXECUTABLE(MyExampleApp main.cpp)

Can I add further source files to this executable after this line but in the same or an included CMakeList.txt file?

Solution

Use target_sources, available since cmake 3.1

eg. target_sources(MyExampleApp PRIVATE ${extra_file})
