Hi!
i have a problem with find_file, finding files in directory structures not part
of the PATHS option and no other CMAKE VARIABLES relevant to find_file set.
I use find_file to find external libraries in different versions, they are
located in different git repos.
each repo has its find script
E.g.
<base>/libexternv1/cmake/FindLibExternV1.cmake
<base>/libexternv1/lib/win/alib.lib
<base>/libexternv2/cmake/FindLibExternV2.cmake
<base>/libexternv2/lib/win/alib.lib
<base>/project/CMakeLists.txt -> the CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR
the project now includes the correct FinLibExternV2.cmake (using include(
../libexternv1/cmake/FindLibExternV2.cmake )
in FindLibExternV2, the lib search with findfile
find_file( <VAR > alib.lib PATHS ${CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_DIR}/../lib/win/alib.lib )
My problem is: it always finds the lib from the libexternv1 directory, seems to
ignore the PATHS hint. FindLibExternV1.cmake is never included.
Environment: CMAKE 3.2.2 and Visual Studio Generator 2013 x64 on Win7
