No. CMakelists.txt does nothing but download the correct installer (32 
or 64 bit) from our server, set a bunch of variables, and then run 
CTest.  I invoke the InstallShield installer from a command line in a CTest.

There is no project, no make, no compile, no build. Just set a bunch of 
variables and run CTest.

I think from what Kyle said I need to migrate(?) this to a script that 
can be called from CTest directly, e.g., ctest -D Experimental -S cdash.txt.

Thanks for the reply.
