Summary | 0015703: "cmake -E copy" support for multiple files | ||||||||
Description | The copy operation is not support wildcart (star "*") when the full path is specified. But it is working correctly with "remove. "cmake -E remove" is not consistent with "cmake -E copy". With using cmake shell comamnd you could add star to whole path: cmake -E remove /Users/warsaw/cos/*.h But it is not possible to make similar operation with "-E copy": cmake -E copy /Users/warsaw/cos/*.h .. displays "CMakre Error" But: cmake -E copy *.h .. or: cmake -E copy /Users/warsaw/cos/file.h .. is working correctly. | ||||||||
Steps To Reproduce | 1. mkdir /Users/warsaw/cos/ 2. cd /Users/warsaw/cos/ 3. touch file.h 4. cmake -E copy /Users/warsaw/cos/*.h .. displays "CMakre Error" Working correctly: cmake -E copy *.h .. cmake -E copy /Users/warsaw/cos/file.h .. | ||||||||

According to the documentation: http://www.cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.3/manual/cmake.1.html#command-line-tool-mode [^] The two relevant "cmake -E" signatures are: copy <file> <destination> and: remove [-f] [<file>...] The "remove" signature documents support for multiple files but "copy" does not. In your example the wildcard is expanded by the shell so CMake sees many arguments. |

Thanks Brad. If wildcard is expanded by shell, then why command: cmake -E copy *.h .. is working correctly. Is should also not working, as it will be expanded by shell into multiple arguments. |

Re 0015703:0039300: If there is only one .h file then the shell wildcard will expand to just that one value as if it had been spelled out explicitly. |

Additional notes: At Source/cmcmd.cxx there is implementation of "cmake -E" commands. In this case the wildcard is expected to be expanded by the shell, so what we really want is for the copy command to support multiple inputs and a single (directory) output. The semantics should match the UNIX "cp" command as much as possible. |
