# AddFileDependencies

Deprecated since version 3.20.

Add dependencies to a source file.

    add_file_dependencies(<source> <files>...)

Adds the given `<files>` to the dependencies of file `<source>`.

Do not use this command in new code. It is just a wrapper around:

    set_property(SOURCE <source> APPEND PROPERTY OBJECT_DEPENDS <files>...)

Instead use the `set_property()` command to append to the `OBJECT_DEPENDS` source file property directly.
