Hey, that's great. I didn't know that CONFIGURE_FILE does not touch the output file if the content doesn't change. With that knowledge, I can now simplify my scripts which up to now checked manually whether the version number changed and only called CONFIGURE_FILE if this is the case. Where did you find that? Did I miss it in the docs?
Thanks Johannes
