0014564: cmake did not check if generated files were really created
in general the cmake system assumes the files generated were really created and saved. (sometimes) it does not check if file creation was successful and continues processing without dropping any error message.
I tried it with mysql source tree, just run cmake as user without write permission on the source files/directories. (you can modify permissions as root). Try to "fix" problems by adding access right to the reported dirs/files only and you will see a lot of misleading messages (and also sometimes there will be no message at all).
I wanted to move the mysql sources into/under a version control system and also wanted to add (store) the generated makefiles.

I think the problem can be easily solved by modifying the low-level write routines instead of checking all these issues.
No tags attached.
