Although COMPILE_FLAGS is not meant to specify definitions,
it usually works; look at the following exemplary project:

CMAKE_MINIMUM_REQUIRED(VERSION 2.8 FATAL_ERROR)
PROJECT(P C)
SET(CMAKE_VERBOSE_MAKEFILE ON)
FILE(WRITE ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/main.c "int main(void){return 0;}\n")
ADD_EXECUTABLE(main main.c)
SET_SOURCE_FILES_PROPERTIES(main.c
    PROPERTIES COMPILE_FLAGS "-D__RELATIVE_PATH__=\\\"ab\\\"")

Make's output reveals:

.../gcc -D__RELATIVE_PATH__=\"ab\" -o .../main.c.o -c .../main.c

Vivek, perhaps a mistake with regard to the variable f? BTW, note
that the COMPILE_DEFINITIONS properties take account for proper
escaping and then some; the COMPILE_FLAGS ones don't, AFAIK.

Regards,

Michael
