It works for me. > By the way, what's the basic difference between macro/function in cmake > ? Related to preprocessing like in C/C++ ? What's the advantage of > distinguish them here ?

Functions are an actual function call and functions have their own scope. tyler _______________________________________________ Powered by www.kitware.com Visit other Kitware open-source projects at http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Follow this link to subscribe/unsubscribe: http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake
