David,
Awesome! That did the trick!
Thanks for the advice.

I think it's just a semicolon problem. Unfortunately for all of us
Windows PATH and CMake both use ";" as their list separator character.
And the set_test_properties ENVIRONMENT property is a semicolon
delimited list of name1=value1;name2=value2;name3=value3;...etc...
To embed ; characters inside of a value, try this after setting
NEWPATH and before calling set_test_properties:
STRING(REPLACE ";" "\\;" NEWPATH "${NEWPATH}")
Let us know if it works for you...
Thanks,
David

While trying to research the answer to my question about how to
make your test program locate its dependent DLL's (see my previous
posting entitled "add_test and locating dependent DLL's on
Windows"), I decided to try the recently added ENVIRONMENT
property of set_tests_properties to set the PATH for the test
program. I *think* I have found an issue with it, but before I
open a bug, I wanted to check to see if this isn't operator error.
First, I created a very simple test program:
===== BEGIN: Env_test.cpp ======
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
void main (int argc, char *argv[])
{
char *p = getenv("PATH");
fprintf(stdout, "PATH = %s\n", p);
}
===== END: Env_test.cpp ======
And then the CMakeLists.txt
===== BEGIN: CMakeLists.txt ======
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.7)
enable_testing()
add_executable (Env_test Env_test.cpp)
add_test (Env_test Env_test)
if (${CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME} STREQUAL "Windows")
set (NEWPATH "C:\\some_dir1;C:\\some_dir2;$ENV{PATH}")
message("NEWPATH = ${NEWPATH}")
set_tests_properties(Env_test PROPERTIES ENVIRONMENT
"PATH=${NEWPATH}")
endif()
===== END: CMakeLists.txt ======
When I run 'cmake -G "Visual Studio 8 2005"', I get the message:
NEWPATH = C:\some_dir1;C:\some_dir2;C:\Program Files\CollabNet...
And if I run Env_test.exe by hand, it properly prints out whatever
my current PATH is.
However, when I run ctest, the output contained in the
LastTest.log shows:
Start testing: May 12 14:03 Eastern Daylight Time
----------------------------------------------------------
Changing directory into: C:/cmake_bug
1/1 Testing: Env_test
1/1 Test: Env_test
Command: "C:/cmake_bug/debug/Env_test.exe"
Directory: C:/cmake_bug
"Env_test" start time: May 12 14:03 Eastern Daylight Time
Output:
----------------------------------------------------------
PATH = C:\some_dir1^M
----------------------------------------------------------
Test Passed.
"Env_test" end time: May 12 14:03 Eastern Daylight Time
"Env_test" time elapsed: 00:00:00
----------------------------------------------------------
End testing: May 12 14:03 Eastern Daylight Time
No matter what I set the PATH to in my CMakeLists.txt, the test
program always dumps on the first component of the path leading up
to the first semicolon in the path.
So, is this operator error or a bug in the new feature? Oh, I'm
running on last night's build of cmake (version 2.7.20090512).
Thanks,
