I see in the cmake code that if I pick the Win64 generator, cmake takes
a 64 bit view of the registry and tries to find things. That makes
sense to me in general, such as finding 64 bit python, based on registry
keys, etc... But Visual Studio itself is a 32 bit application, and the
64 bit redist is contained in it.
I guess I'll put this in the bug tracker.
Thanks,

In cmake-gui, if I pick the "Visual Studio 8 2005" generator, it sets
MSVC80_REDIST_DIR correctly.
If I go back File -> Delete Cache, then hit configure again, but
choose "Visual Studio 8 2005 Win64" as the generator, then
MSVC80_REDIST_DIR is not found.

It's looking in the right place. You're using the 64-bit regedit. If
you view it with the 32-bit regedit (found, paradoxically, at
C:\WINDOWS\SysWOW64\regedit.exe) then you'll see it as 32-bit cmake
is asking for it...
Side note: you can always use Process Explorer from sysinternals.com
<http://sysinternals.com> to examine running processes to determine
if they are 32-bit or 64-bit if you need to. I would say Process
Explorer is the most indispensable tool that exists on Windows.
So you include InstallRequiredSystemLibraries and what happens?

On 64 bit Windows...
When I run cmake, the InstallRequiredSystemLibraries.cmake is not
finding the MSVC80_REDIST_DIR automatically.
It looks in
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\VisualStudio\\8.0;InstallDir]
for it, but its not there when I run regedit.
Its actually in
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Wow6432Node\\Microsoft\\VisualStudio\\8.0;InstallDir].
Is there some way to make this work without me helping it along?
Maybe its a more general issue?
This is using the cmake 2.6.2 binaries from cmake.org
<http://cmake.org>.
