[CMake] Windows RC files with Ninja

[Miller, Frank]

Greetings,

I tried to move from 2.8 to 3.0.1 today and I'm experiencing an issue with RC files. Looks like a simple problem but I would be baffled if I'm the first to experience this so I expect I have some kind of configuration issue. Here is the offending snippet in the rules.ninja file:

rule RC_COMPILER
  depfile = $DEP_FILE
  deps = gcc
  command = "" RC $in "$DEP_FILE" $out "" "c:/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0/VC/bin/cl.exe" c:\PROGRA~2\WI3CF2~1\8.1\bin\x86\rc.exe  $FLAGS $DEFINES /fo$out $in
  description = Building RC object $out

If I put the path to "cmcldeps.exe" in the empty quotes on the command line, it works as expected.

Does anyone else have this problem?

Frank
