Hi,

I am porting my qmake project to cmake. So far it all goes well, but I have the following problem when hitting "build" from within qtcreator as opposed to manually running Cmake.

My project links to several packages provided by the vcpkg manager, which integrates well with cmake.
When i manually configure and compile my project with "cmake --build .", then cmake copies the .dll files from the vcpkg-libraries correctly to the build dir.
But this does not happen when I hit "build" in QtCreator. The CMakeLists.txt is the exact same.

Here is my CMakeFile. It's basically the default one generated by QtCreator for a widget app.
The second line provides the vcpkg integration, and I then link to the library "capstone_dll" installed in vcpkg.
