Hello,I have installed a very recent version of Cygwin on Windows 7 (64 bits) and the version of CMake that comes with it (2.8.9-2). When I use this however to configure and build projects that work fine under Windows (various versions0, then I get either configuration problems or build problems that turn out to be caused by a strange
permission set on "configured" files.
Using one of these projects I have created an almost minimal project to demonstrate the problem. If you configure it via CMake under Windows 7, the file "gnulliver.h" has "special permissions". I have no clue what that means or how it arises, but the consequence is that a program can not open it. Not even a program running under
Administrator rights.Oddly enough, you can change the permissions from Windows Explorer by opening the permissions dialogue and giving the user full access.
I have tried to reproduce it in an even smaller project than the one attached, that is: just a CMakeListst.txt file and gnulliver.h.in, but that worked without this problem. So it seems a combination of
steps is required to trigger this issue.Can anyone shed some light on this? It makes it impossible to use Cygwin in combination with Windows 7 (I have not tried on other platforms, quite possibly it is specific to this combination.)
