Is it possible to add the pre-build custom build step to BUILD to copy all files to the same dir?
I know (and use a lot) the post-build steps. What about pre-build?
configure
make sources
make

Getting the WDK to work with CMake takes a little work, but it makes
integrating the WDK with a larger build system much easier, IMO.
One of the things that you can do with it is more or less what Pavel just
mentioned 
CMake doesn’t support the Win8 WDK stuff directly, AFAIK.

Sorry, CMake is much better (and is a replacement of) this monstrosity, if you’re speaking about GNU automake/autoconf.
But yes, the notion of “configure” is the same in CMake.
Also note that yes, surely there are pre-build steps with SOURCES, I use one to generate the tiny little header called “svnver.h”, for instance

Oh yes. The simplest way is:
CMake doesn’t support the Win8 WDK stuff directly, AFAIK.
So, you can write your own generator and publish it to the community.
Is there an MSBuild generator for CMake? or only MSVC?

Are you speaking on Darwin or Cocoa?
The first seems to be really close to FreeBSD if not to Linux, in terms of tools too.

Yes definitely (as new vcxproj format works with msbuild) , but it
generates normal VC++ projects. Needs some tweaking for a driver project.
