Summary0013949: FAIL_REGULAR_EXPRESSION doesn't match beginning-of-line properly
DescriptionI ended up doing:

set_tests_properties(conversion PROPERTIES
  DEPENDS prepare
  FAIL_REGULAR_EXPRESSION "(^|
)[+][+] WARNING: "
  )

because this wasn't working:

set_tests_properties(conversion PROPERTIES
  DEPENDS prepare
  FAIL_REGULAR_EXPRESSION "^[+][+] WARNING: "
  )

CMake regex matching always treats '^' and '$' w.r.t. the entire text, not lines (like python without the MULTILINE option). The documentation here:

 http://www.cmake.org/cmake/help/v2.8.10/cmake.html#command:string [^]

is wrong in that regard.

However, there may be places that CMake or CTest splits text into lines and applies the regex separately on each line. I do not think FAIL_REGULAR_EXPRESSION is one of them.
