Summary0015690: ctest doing one more undesirable run
DescriptionI call

ctest -VV -S my.ctest

and it goes through my script, then decides to do one more configure/build/test, which I don't want.
Steps To ReproduceUse this ctest script:


set(CTEST_SOURCE_DIRECTORY ${CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_DIR}/src)
set(CTEST_BINARY_DIRECTORY ${CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_DIR}/build)
set(CTEST_CMAKE_GENERATOR "Unix Makefiles")
set(CTEST_PROJECT_NAME "all")
set(CTEST_CONFIGURATION_TYPE "Release")
set(CTEST_COMMAND "ctest")

function(doit)
  ctest_start(Experimental)
  ctest_configure()
  ctest_build()
endfunction()

doit()
Additional InformationNotice how I'm using a function(). If I change to a macro(), then the problem goes away. But I don't want to do that.

A workaround is to add
set(CTEST_RUN_CURRENT_SCRIPT OFF)
at the bottom of my script (yuck).

This is left from legacy behavior when the ctest -S script mode would actually drive the dashboard itself and the script part was only for setting variables. Then we added the explicit command mode and distinguish it by the presence of one of the ctest_* commands (or something like that).
