CMake generated projects do not contain header files

[GoogleCodeExporter]

When generating projects with CMake, only the source files are part of the 
project.
While this compiles find, it is not ideal when navigating the sources or when 
doing a find in "Entire Solution".

The issue can be quickly fixed by adding a line after the definition of 
source_files:

aux_source_directory( . source_files )
file( GLOB header_files *.h )

And when defining the target(s) adding ${header_files} after ${source_files}. 
e.g.

# Add library build target
if(CRASHRPT_BUILD_SHARED_LIBS)
    add_library(CrashRpt SHARED 
        ${source_files}
        ${header_files}
    )
else(CRASHRPT_BUILD_SHARED_LIBS)
    add_library(CrashRpt STATIC 
        ${source_files}
        ${header_files}
    )
endif(CRASHRPT_BUILD_SHARED_LIBS)

in the CrashRpt CMakeLists.txt file. As a side remark, the CMake documentation 
recommends not using aux_source_directory in the way used here:
http://www.cmake.org/cmake/help/v2.8.8/cmake.html#command:aux_source_directory
as convenient as it may be.
