Summary	0013963: get_filename_component returns blank
Description	Command get_filename_component fails to return the name of the file if its input string is not simple. This works: get_filename_component(EDB "${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/etc/emppack.db" NAME) but the following fails set(EMP_DB_FILE "${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/etc/emppack.db" CACHE FILEPATH "name of the Emppack data base file. Full path must be included") get_filename_component(EDB "${EDB_DB_FILE}" NAME)
Steps To Reproduce	set(EMP_DB_FILE "${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/etc/emppack.db" CACHE FILEPATH "name of the Emppack data base file. Full path must be included") get_filename_component(EDB "${EDB_DB_FILE} " NAME) message(" this is the dbfile: ${EDB}")
Additional Information	I could reproduce the error using cmake 2.8.7 and 2.8.9 on an updated Ubuntu 12.04 and on a RHEL 6.3.
