Summary

0000772: Changing CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR causes strange behaviour

Description

This is possibly something that I shouldn't be doing, but should it then perhaps be read-only?

If I perform the following calls in a CMakeLists.txt:

MESSAGE(STATUS ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR})
SET(CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/src}
MESSAGE(STATUS ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR})
MESSAGE(STATUS ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR})
MESSAGE(STATUS ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR})
MESSAGE(STATUS ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR})
SET(CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/..)

I get the following output:
-- J:/MCCL/Timer
-- J:/MCCL/Timer/src}MESSAGE(STATUSJ:/MCCL/Timer
-- J:/MCCL/Timer/src}MESSAGE(STATUSJ:/MCCL/Timer
-- J:/MCCL/Timer/src}MESSAGE(STATUSJ:/MCCL/Timer

It looks like a pointer is perhaps being mangled somewhere. No crash, but definitely not correct.

Function missing ending ")". Instead found "(". CMake Error: Error in cmake code at J:/MCCL/Timer/CMakeLists.txt:41: Parse error. Function missing ending ")". Instead found "(".
