Thanks! > Enclosing the cmake version will cause a republish of generated files What do you mean by "republish"? Do you mean "cause a rebuild"? The files generated by CMake should, generally, not be put into source control. If you mean "rebuild", only the header generation code needs to really not put the version into the file. The version in generated build.ninja, Makefiles, and CPack-related files shouldn't be a problem. --Ben -- 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.
