What are ALL_BUILD and ZERO_CHECK and do I need them?
C++Visual StudioCmakeC++ Problem Overview
I've created a simple CMakeLists.txt:
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8)
project (HelloWorld)
add_executable (HelloWorld main.cpp)
When I generate a VS2012 or VS2010 project from CMake, however, I get these 2 additional entries - ALL_BUILD and ZERO_CHECK. I don't understand their purpose, do I need them?
C++ Solutions
Solution 1 - C++
From https://cmake.org/pipermail/cmake/2008-November/025448.html:

Solution 2 - C++
Add the following line to you CMakeLists.txt to suppress generation of ZERO_CHECK:
set(CMAKE_SUPPRESS_REGENERATION true)
