Why are you using aux_source_directory here?

@SirDarius, just for the sake of completeness. I use aux_source_directory for all projects to collect source files.

I'm mentioning this because the documentation says explicitely that it is not good practice and this command should only be used for explicit template instanciation. Explicitely listing source files is the preferred way in CMake.

@SirDarius, thanks for the clarification. This is my bad habit then which may originating from Qt Creator's CMake project template.
