Hi, I have the following example copied from the cmake Tests/Tutorial directory. cmake works fine.
/tmp/xxx/src$ cat.sh * ==> CMakeLists.txt <== cmake_minimum_required (VERSION 2.6) project (Tutorial) # The version number. set (Tutorial_VERSION_MAJOR 1) set (Tutorial_VERSION_MINOR 0) # configure a header file to pass some of the CMake settings # to the source code configure_file ( "${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/TutorialConfig.h.in" "${PROJECT_BINARY_DIR}/TutorialConfig.h" ) # add the binary tree to the search path for include files # so that we will find TutorialConfig.h include_directories("${PROJECT_BINARY_DIR}") # add the executable add_executable(tutorial.exe tutorial.cpp) ==> TutorialConfig.h.in <== // the configured options and settings for Tutorial #define Tutorial_VERSION_MAJOR ${Tutorial_VERSION_MAJOR} #define Tutorial_VERSION_MINOR ${Tutorial_VERSION_MINOR} ==> tutorial.cpp <== // A simple program that computes the square root of a number #include <stdio.h> #include "TutorialConfig.h" int main (int argc, char *argv[]) { fprintf(stdout,"%s Version %d.%d\n", argv[0], Tutorial_VERSION_MAJOR, Tutorial_VERSION_MINOR); return 0; } When I mv xxx to '$' /tmp/$$ dir build src I get the following error. This is must be due to a bug in cmake such that it can not handle directory path with '$' in it. Could anybody fix it?
