Summary0011647: Mangled CMAKE_MODULE_PATH value (via CURL project)
Descriptioncmake version 2.6-patch 4

Cross compiling CURL using CMAKE. This appears to be a CMAKE issue though.

Error at CMakeLists.tx:189

Error Text:
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:189 (include):
  include could not find load file:

    /home/far/dev_puma/git_managed/curl/CMake;/CheckTypeSize.cmake


At run time include value evaluates to be "/home/far/dev_puma/git_managed/curl/CMake;/CheckTypeSize.cmake"
which is wrong, I'm assuming it should be "/home/far/dev_puma/git_managed/curl/CMake/CheckTypeSize.cmake"

text of CMakeLists.txt:188
if(CMAKE_CROSSCOMPILING)
  include ("${CMAKE_MODULE_PATH}/CheckTypeSize.cmake")

CMAKE_MODULE_PATH is generated at CMakeLists.txt:21

CMakeLists.txt:21
set(CMAKE_MODULE_PATH "${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/CMake;${CMAKE_MODULE_PATH}")

:. on my local build, if I change CMakeLists.txt:21 to be
set(CMAKE_MODULE_PATH "${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/CMake")

it compiles.
Steps To Reproduce
Additional Informationdunnkown if this is your or cURL, but it seems to be part of the CMAKE system.

This is a bug in the upstream Curl CMake code. The code

  include ("${CMAKE_MODULE_PATH}/CheckTypeSize.cmake")

evaluates the "CMAKE_MODULE_PATH" variable and substitutes its content literally into the string. If the value has a semicolon then that will be put in as well. No such file exists of course.

It looks like this bug existed in the originally contributed CMake support added by upstream Curl commit 4c5307b4. Likely no one has tried cross-compiling it since then.

If you need further help, please post to our mailing list:

Thanks.
