我在谷歌上搜索了大约半个小时，我想到的唯一有用的东西是调用find实用程序:

# Find and then delete all files under current directory (.) that:
#  1. contains "cmake" (case-&insensitive) in its path (wholename)
#  2. name is not CMakeLists.txt
find . -iwholename '*cmake*' -not -name CMakeLists.txt -delete

此外，确保在此之前调用make clean(或您正在使用的任何CMake生成器)。

:)

当你在生成build文件时将-D参数传递给CMake，并且不想删除整个build/目录时:

简单地删除构建目录中的CMakeFiles/目录。

rm -rf CMakeFiles/
cmake --build .

这将导致CMake重新运行，并重新生成构建系统文件。您的构建也将从头开始。

CMake官方常见问题解答说明:

Some build trees created with GNU autotools have a "make distclean" target that cleans the build and also removes Makefiles and other parts of the generated build system. CMake does not generate a "make distclean" target because CMakeLists.txt files can run scripts and arbitrary commands; CMake has no way of tracking exactly which files are generated as part of running CMake. Providing a distclean target would give users the false impression that it would work as expected. (CMake does generate a "make clean" target to remove files generated by the compiler and linker.) A "make distclean" target is only necessary if the user performs an in-source build. CMake supports in-source builds, but we strongly encourage users to adopt the notion of an out-of-source build. Using a build tree that is separate from the source tree will prevent CMake from generating any files in the source tree. Because CMake does not change the source tree, there is no need for a distclean target. One can start a fresh build by deleting the build tree or creating a separate build tree.

简单地发布rm CMakeCache.txt也适用于我。

如果你跑了

cmake .

它将重新生成CMake文件。如果您将一个新文件添加到由*选择的源文件夹中，这是必需的。比如Cc。

虽然这本身不是“清理”，但它通过重新生成缓存来“清理”CMake文件。

你可以这样使用:

add_custom_target(clean-cmake-files
   COMMAND ${CMAKE_COMMAND} -P clean-all.cmake
)

// clean-all.cmake
set(cmake_generated ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/CMakeCache.txt
                    ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/cmake_install.cmake
                    ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/Makefile
                    ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/CMakeFiles
)

foreach(file ${cmake_generated})

  if (EXISTS ${file})
     file(REMOVE_RECURSE ${file})
  endif()

endforeach(file)

我通常创建一个“make clean-all”命令，在前面的例子中添加一个调用“make clean”:

add_custom_target(clean-all
   COMMAND ${CMAKE_BUILD_TOOL} clean
   COMMAND ${CMAKE_COMMAND} -P clean-all.cmake
)

不要尝试将“clean”目标添加为依赖项:

add_custom_target(clean-all
   COMMAND ${CMAKE_COMMAND} -P clean-all.cmake
   DEPENDS clean
)

因为“干净”在CMake中不是一个真正的目标，这是行不通的。

此外，你不应该使用这个“clean-cmake-files”作为任何东西的依赖:

add_custom_target(clean-all
   COMMAND ${CMAKE_BUILD_TOOL} clean
   DEPENDS clean-cmake-files
)

因为，如果你这样做，所有的CMake文件将在clean-all完成之前被擦除，make将抛出一个搜索“CMakeFiles/clean-all.dir/build.make”的错误。因此，在任何情况下，都不能在"anything"前面使用clean-all命令:

add_custom_target(clean-all
   COMMAND ${CMAKE_BUILD_TOOL} clean
   COMMAND ${CMAKE_COMMAND} -P clean-all.cmake
)

这也不行。
