Summary0011651: Generator "Visual Studio 7": Invalid solution file
DescriptionWhen creating solution and project files with CMake -G "Visual Studio 7" then the generated solution file (.sln) is invalid.
Reason is that the introducing header lines state Visual Studio 2008 and not Visual Studio 2002 7.0.

First two lines of generated solution file:
Microsoft Visual Studio Solution File, Format Version 10.00
# Visual Studio 2008

Expected and correct lines would be:
Microsoft Visual Studio Solution File, Format Version 7.00
# Visual Studio 2002

Steps To ReproduceCMake -G "Visual Studio 7"

Can you show the output of the cmake run and attache the CMakeCache.txt file? One thing to try would be to remove the build tree, and try again. If you have already picked the generator, CMake will not switch it.

You are right, there must have been a left over.
Made sure that everything was deleted and re-generated, now the solution file was valid.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
