I had a proposal for this a while ago but it didn't go anywhere nor did I ever implement it. http://www.itk.org/Bug/view.php?id=8396 I suggested that support for searching for files or directories that match a particular regex that describes a version number be added. In other words, you could try to find: NAMES foo-([0-9])\.([0-9]) or PATHS bar([0-9]+) The module would be responsible of passing on the request to find the latest version number that matches, or it could specify an absolute version to find. It would probably have to be an extended form of the find_library(), find_path(), etc. commands. -- Philip Lowman
