[Cmake] What "path" do custom commands use?

[Miller, James V (CRD)]

Thanks.  That was the problem.  Is there anyway we can work around this in general?  For instance,
could "custom commands" for DevStudio run another program that would ferret out a good path and then
exec the intended custom command executable?
 
So instead of the custom command being:
 
c:\itkQuality\fltk-1.0.11\fluid\fluid.exe -c -h
C:/itkQuality/Continuous/Insight-intel/Examples/Morphogenesis/BacterialColonyGUI.h -o
C:/itkQuality/Continuous/Insight-intel/Examples/Morphogenesis/BacterialColonyGUI.cxx
c:/itkQuality/Continuous/Insight/Examples/Morphogenesis/BacterialColonyGUI.fl 

it would something like
 
c:\itkQuality\CMake\hacks\fixEnviroment.bat  c:\itkQuality\fltk-1.0.11\fluid\fluid.exe -c -h
C:/itkQuality/Continuous/Insight-intel/Examples/Morphogenesis/BacterialColonyGUI.h -o
C:/itkQuality/Continuous/Insight-intel/Examples/Morphogenesis/BacterialColonyGUI.cxx
c:/itkQuality/Continuous/Insight/Examples/Morphogenesis/BacterialColonyGUI.fl 

It seems pretty problematic that DevStudio's environment for custom commands is not inherited.

This is a "fun" problem with MSDev.   

MSDev has a nice feature of taking a snapshot of your PATH when
it is installed. From that point on it ignores the system PATH.
You can manually add new paths in Tools->Options->Directories->Executables.

I am having a problem with the cmFLTKWrapUICommand when it is run on the PC.  When fluid.exe is run,
it cannot find a required dll.  The specific dll is one that Intel C++ provides which is what I used
to build fltk.
 
I can run fluid from the command line and it works fine.  However, when DevStudio runs fluid as a
custom command, the search path does not include the directory that has the Intel C++ dlls. This
directory is in my path when I run from the comand line.
 
Do custom commands have a special "path" associated with them? Is this a DevStudio problem?
