This would be a workable solution for me. It would certainly be a step in the
right direction, especially if it is easy enough to implement. I was into
PERL years ago, so "my" declarations are still ingrained in my head ... try
writing a large set of PERL scripts without "use strict" and "my" :-)
It sure would be nice if there were more standard ways to denote scope though.
The whole "begin ... end" construct gets to be tedious after a while. I am a
big fan of curly braces ( { ... } ) personally, although I am sure that this
would require quite a bit more work to the CMake scripting language.
With a construct to control variable scope and curly braces to
replace "begin ... end", I would be quite satisfied with CMake scripting :-)
Thanks,
Justin
