I had recently a similar problem, until I found this solution:

SET(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS_DEBUG "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS_DEBUG} -Zi -wd4996 -wd4800")

The point was to enclose ALSO the ${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS_DEBUG} into the two quotes.


Hope this is a better hint.

Bah. I finally found the problem. All of my string handling was correct. I was passing arguments to a CMake script using INCLUDE(${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/vars.cmake) because there are no command line arguments for scripts in CMake 2.4.2. *That* file was missing the quotes. Bah! Well I look forward to being able to pass command line arguments in the next release. This is another reason why they're needed: people will be forever breaking their own homebrew hacks around the problem. That one only cost me, oh, 2 hours at least.


You know I spoke too soon. Once I changed that, I started getting semicolons in new places *inside of* quoted strings. There is a general problem of semicolons, double quotes, and spaces in filenames beating each other up, as they are passed around between lists and strings and replacements are performed. A list of defines like the following is highly problematic:

-DHIERARCHICAL_INSTALL -DC_USE_C_DEFAULTS -DC_INSTALL_HOME="E:/Program Files/Chicken" -DC_INSTALL_BIN_HOME="E:/Program Files/Chicken/bin" -DC_INSTALL_INCLUDE_HOME="E:/Program Files/Chicken/include" -DC_INSTALL_LIB_HOME="E:/Program Files/Chicken/lib" -DHAVE_DIRECT_H -DHAVE_GCVT -DHAVE_STDINT_H -DHAVE_WINDOWS_H -DHAVE_LOADLIBRARY -DHAVE_GETPROCADDRESS -DHAVE_WINSOCK2_H -DHAVE_WS2TCPIP_H -DC_ENABLE_PTABLES -DC_STACK_GROWS_DOWNWARD=1

I'll try to ask a specific question when I've got it back down to a specific problem again. Until then, any general remedies?
