[SOLVED] How to print messages after make done with cmake?

Issue

I'm trying to print messages after building process done using CMake.

I just want to inform the user after make command is done without any error.

How can I do it? I tried add_custom_target() but I cannot choose when to run.

Also, I tried add_custom_command(), again it doesn't give me the right result.

Any idea?

Thank you for your idea in advance.

Solution

You could, indeed, do the following:

add_custom_target( FinalMessage ALL
    ${CMAKE_COMMAND} -E cmake_echo_color --cyan "Compilation is over!"
    COMMENT "Final Message" )
add_dependencies( FinalMessage ${ALL_TARGETS} )

That custom target depending on the list of all the targets you previously defined, you make sure it will be run last.
