On a Windows 7 machine I cannot read any registry values that contain a

For example if you have 7-zip, running the following
SET(MYPATH [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\7-Zip;Path])
MESSAGE("MYPATH = ${MYPATH}")
results in
MYPATH = [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\7-Zip;Path]
instead of the actual path as per the following thread
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg19014.html
I think registry paths that contain ";" are broken on Windows 7. Can
somebody confirm this? Is there any work-around?
You want:
get_filename_component(MYPATH
"[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\7-Zip;Path]" PATH)
The message command does not look up registry values.
