I noticed when doing a recent test of our build with CMake 2.8.8 and MSVC that the CMakeCache.txt file seems to be getting changes applied to it during the generation step (primarily a lot of additions with the comment "Stored GUID", seemingly related to custom commands/targets.) One of the things I've noticed when doing Windows builds is that it seems to be very important that the CMakeCache.txt file after Configure/Generate not be in a state that triggers an automatic re-running of CMake "out of the box" in MSVC - we have hundreds of build targets and the interactive prompting is a killer for usability. From what I have seen previously, it looks like this automatic re-run takes place whenever the CMakeCache.txt file changes after the "Configure" step is complete. That was previously happing due to quirks with our build, but we had found ways to avoid the problem and were getting a "clean" MSVC build with no CMake re-running. I don't recall seeing this "Stored GUID" content appearing in the generator step previously - is this new?
Any help appreciated.
