I would like more direct access to the CMake version number, and the 
ability to make easy lexical comparisons between version numbers.
    

Since cmake 2.4.3 you can use CMAKE_PATCH_VERSION. CMAKE_MINOR_VERSION and CMAKE_MAJOR version existed already before.
  

Thank you much for this info, Alex.

But, holy [EMAIL PROTECTED]  This is infuriating!  I chew up my evening reinventing the wheel, because this stuff ISN'T IN THE DOCS, and ISN'T ON THE WIKI "USEFUL VARIABLES" PAGE!

Kitware, you know exactly what I would say, what I am tempted to say.  I will restrain myself from saying it.  Please, over the next year, do something about this.  For my part, I will continue to file "Content" bug reports when things aren't documented, and update wiki entries when I can.



Cheers,
Brandon Van Every
