Summary0000541: Variable variable works wrong in macros
DescriptionVariable variable in macros works only with macro parameters, why? I set a "local" variable and it doesn't work.

Try this:
CMakeLists.txt:
MACRO(SHOW_BUG name)
                                                                                        MESSAGE(${${name}_DIR})
                                                                                        SET(SOMETHING ${name})
                                                                                        MESSAGE(${${SOMETHING}_DIR})
                                                                                        ENDMACRO(SHOW_BUG)
                                                                                        
SET(test_DIR "./")
SHOW_BUG(test)

# cmake .
-- Check for working C compiler: gcc -- works
-- Check for working CXX compiler: c++ -- works
./

 "Variable Variables" only work for the arguments of a macro, and do not work in general or with other variables.
