[CMake] Nmake verbose=1 gives no valuable output for cl.exe

[Dixon, Shane]

Is this a recent change?  I don't recall having to do anything like that before?  I'm running latest RC5.  Isn't this the kind of behavior that verbose=1 should set by default?  What's verbose about it if all the command-line options are obscured from the user in .tmp files that disappear?

In the bottom of Modules/Platform/Windows.cmake:

# uncomment these out to debug nmake and borland makefiles
#SET(CMAKE_START_TEMP_FILE "")
#SET(CMAKE_END_TEMP_FILE "")
#SET(CMAKE_VERBOSE_MAKEFILE 1)

Uncomment those three SET lines to see verbose nmake output...


HTH,
David

	I tried to use "nmake verbose=1 MyProjDLL-sw" to watch the command-line come by and verify it had the right definition, but all I get is this:
	
	C:\PROGRA~1\MICROS~1.0\VC\bin\cl.exe  @C:\DOCUME~1\SHANE~1.DIX\LOCALS~1\Temp\nm54B2.tmp
	myprojdll.c
	
	Do I have a command-line that's too long so it has to be put into a .tmp file?  I can't find the file after the run so I'm assuming it gets deleted.  How can I see what's getting passed to cl.exe?
