[CMake] INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES problem...

[BRM]

${project_SOURCE_DIR} is pointing to the root as I thought it would be.


Another suggestion was to use ${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR} however, that is an empty string.

I have also tried setting a new variable to ${project_SOURCE_DIR}/include and using that, however the same result.

I forgot to mention in the earlier e-mail - as I'm running this on Gentoo (which has used it for several projects), I am using CMake 2.4 - latest from Portage.

what is ${project_SOURCE_DIR} ?

try adding MESSAGE("project_SOURCE_DIR is '${project_SOURCE_DIR}'")
right before that line in your cmakelists. I have a sneaking suspicion
it's not what you think it is. You have to use something like
${project_SOURCE_DIR}/../include instead.
