I was told that this sentence actually states that lines inside a (single) command argument cannot end in a line comment. I initially thought that "Command Arguments" in this sentence means the "section" that contains all the arguments in a command invocation, as the wording implies that there may be multiple lines inside the referred "Command Arguments". However, a bracketed or a quoted argument can span several lines, so the sentence means that one cannot have comments in a bracketed or quoted argument (the grammar does not allow unescaped "#" inside an unquoted argument, so I think the sentence does not refer to this case). Is this correct? This is valid: my_command( ARG1 # This comment is not part of an argument # Neither is this ARG2 ) This is also valid: my_command( "ARG1 # But this comment IS part of an argument " [==[ARG2 # And so is this ]==] ) Hope that helps, Kyle -- Powered by www.kitware.com Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Kitware offers various services to support the CMake community.
