[Cmake] Could not find CMAKE_ROOT !!!

[Bill Hoffman]

For MS VC++, there is another solution to this posted by John B.:

The real fix for this problem is to create a FILE command
that supports globbing.  

FILE(SOURCES GLOB ${DIR} "*.h" "*.cpp")


My concern is that your project will forever require a special
version of cmake.
