Summary0015146: MANIFESTUAC-Link flag results in vcxproj errors
DescriptionAdding the UAC flag like

set_target_properties( XXX PROPERTIES LINK_FLAGS_DEBUG "MANIFESTUAC:\"level='requireAdministrator' uiAccess='false'\"" )

Therefore we obtain inside the vcxproj:

<EnableUAC>true</EnableUAC>
<UACUIAccess>level='requireAdministrator' uiAccess='false'</UACUIAccess>

Instead of:
<EnableUAC>true</EnableUAC>
<UACUIAccess>false</UACUIAccess>
<UACExecutionLevel>RequireAdministrator</UACExecutionLevel>

what results in link errors
Steps To ReproduceAdding the UAC flag like

set_target_properties( XXX PROPERTIES LINK_FLAGS_DEBUG "MANIFESTUAC:\"level='requireAdministrator' uiAccess='false'\"" )

and build a VS2013 project file

Additional InformationI know there is antoher wa of adding link flags since 3.0, but we also use camke 2.8 and there it's teh same problem

Take a look at the flag tables in Source/cmVS*LinkFlagTable.h and the code in the cmIDEOptions::CheckFlagTable method in
Source/cmIDEOptions.cxx. It looks like some special handling will be needed to parse multiple values out of the MANIFESTUAC: option.

Yes, thus I changed it to separate links flag additions:
/MANIFESTUAC:NO
/level='requireAdministrator'
/uiAccess='false'

but at least at 2.8.12 it wrote

<UACUIAccess>NO</UACUIAccess>
instead of

<UACUIAccess>false</UACUIAccess>

into my vcxproj-file :(

Please try a nightly binary from:

 http://www.cmake.org/files/dev/?C=M;O=D [^]

I think that was fixed in post-3.0 development by:

 VS: Fix /MANIFESTUAC:NO linker option mapping
 http://cmake.org/gitweb?p=cmake.git;a=commitdiff;h=9c7f234c [^]
