[CMake] Passing Macro Arguments to "configure_file"

Not sure what I am doing wrong but here is my problem.
I have a macro that takes a few arguments. Within the macro I am
calling "configure_file" and in the file that gets configured I am
using the values of the arguments. Unfortunately after the file is
configured during cmake time the values are blank. Here is a concise
test case.
#---- CMakeLists.txt file Begin
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.6)
macro(vartest variable)
message(STATUS "----------------------------------")
message(STATUS "variable: ${variable}")
SET (Test_Variable "${variable}/Test_Output.cmake")
CONFIGURE_FILE("Test.txt.in" "Test.txt" @ONLY IMMEDIATE)
endmacro(vartest variable)
set (target "myTarget")
vartest(${target})
#---- CMakeLists.txt file End
# ---- Test.txt.in Begin
variable = @variable@
Test_Variable = @Test_Variable@
# ---- Test. txt.in End
The output I get from Cmake is:
509:[mjackson at Shepard-2:Build]$ cmake ../
-- ----------------------------------
-- variable: myTarget
-- Configuring done
-- Generating done
-- Build files have been written to: /Users/mjackson/Desktop/Test/Build
and the txt file looks like this:
variable =
Test_Variable = myTarget/Test_Output.cmake
Is this a bug or something I am doing wrong or am I just not
understanding something basic about macros. (Probably the "dumb"
part.. )
Thanks for any help
