[Cmake] Why doesn't this give the expected output

[John Biddiscombe]

Aha. Thanks...

AUX_SOURCE_DIRECTORY(dir VARIABLE)

This gives a null result too, but using a batch file dir.bat and passing the params to that works fine.

thanks

JB

Dir is not a command, it is a built in part of the shell.
So there is no dir.exe for cmake to run.
You may want to look at this command:

   "  AUX_SOURCE_DIRECTORY(dir VARIABLE)\n"
      "Collects the names of all the source files in the specified "
      "directory and stores the list in the variable provided.";
