Summary0012422: cmake is unable to generate valid solution for Visual Studio 2010
DescriptionWhen there are two versions of Visual Studio (tested only 2005 and 2010) then the generating of cmake cache loads invalid environment variables and uses the nmake of the older studio
Steps To ReproduceInstall Cmake 2.8.4, Visual Studio 2005 and VS 2010
generate initial cache from a file:
cmake -G "Visual Studio 10" -C initial-cache.txt ..\..\src\internal

result :
generating is done for VS 2010 but environment is loaded from VS 2005
loading initial cache file initial-cache.txt

Sending old, never assigned issues to the backlog.

(The age of the bug, plus the fact that it's never been assigned to anyone means that nobody is actively working on it...)

If an issue you care about is sent to the backlog when you feel it should have been addressed in a different manner, please bring it up on the CMake mailing list for discussion. Sign up for the mailing list here, if you're not already on it: http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake [^]

It's easy to re-activate a bug here if you can find a CMake developer who has the bandwidth to take it on, and ferry a fix through to our 'next' branch for dashboard testing.
