This is driving me nuts.  I have a list of compiler flags:

GET_DIRECTORY_PROPERTY(EXCESSIVE_CPPFLAGS_LIST
 DIRECTORY ${Chicken_SOURCE_DIR}
 DEFINITIONS
)

I want to turn this list into a string with NO SEMICOLONS. I need to shove this into a .scm file and semicolons won't be appreciated. I keep trying all these different FOREACH and STRING functions, and nothing works! I always end up with semicolons. What's the answer? It's like CMake is too smart about string handling, the double quotes " " always have side effects. It won't let me manipulate a plain old dumb string.

This failed:
STRING(REPLACE ";" " " EXCESSIVE_CPPFLAGS "${EXCESSIVE_CPPFLAGS_LIST}")

This failed:
MACRO(TO_STRING list string)
 SET(${string} "")
 FOREACH(elem ${${list}})
   SET(${string} "${${string}} ${elem}")
 ENDFOREACH(elem)
ENDMACRO(TO_STRING)

Everything I try fails.  HEEEELLLLPPPP!!!!!


Cheers,
Brandon Van Every
