Disclaimer: Most native build tools have poor support for escaping
|
|
certain values. CMake has work-arounds for many cases but some values
|
|
may just not be possible to pass correctly. If a value does not seem
|
|
to be escaped correctly, do not attempt to work-around the problem by
|
|
adding escape sequences to the value. Your work-around may break in a
|
|
future version of CMake that has improved escape support. Instead
|
|
consider defining the macro in a (configured) header file. Then
|
|
report the limitation. Known limitations include:
|
|
|
|
============= ========================
|
|
``#`` Broken almost everywhere.
|
|
``;`` Broken in VS IDE 7.0 and Borland Makefiles.
|
|
``,`` Broken in VS IDE.
|
|
``%`` Broken in some cases in NMake.
|
|
``& |`` Broken in some cases on MinGW.
|
|
``^ < > \ "`` Broken in most Make tools on Windows.
|
|
============= ========================
|
|
|
|
CMake does not reject these values outright because they do work in
|
|
some cases. Use with caution.
