No problem. I noticed that if I add this in the "ctest run script", i.e.
the script I execute like "ctest -S myscript.cmake", then the macro works correctly. Hence perhaps it is correct that the ctest --help-command is reporting this as such. However what I am trying to do now (not sure if it is supposed to work), is to add this to a 'CTestTestfile.cmake' file in the project itself, where the project is not using cmake (there is nothing to compile so it doesn't make much sense to use cmake).

Cheers,
Yngve

Hi,

I think it should work. Especially because that's the file I tested on... I mean, my project is CMake-generated, but I modified CTestTestfile.cmake manually:

# CMake generated Testfile for 
# Source directory: /home/jzakrzewski/server
# Build directory: /home/jzakrzewski/server/build/debug
# 
# This file includes the relevent testing commands required for 
# testing this directory and lists subdirectories to be tested as well.

macro(hello MESSAGE)
   message("${MESSAGE}")
endmacro(hello)
hello("Hello World")

SUBDIRS(src/Base)
SUBDIRS(src/Core)

And whe running just plain
ctest
command, I have output like this:

UpdateCTestConfiguration  from :/home/jzakrzewski/server/build/debug/DartConfiguration.tcl
UpdateCTestConfiguration  from :/home/jzakrzewski/server/build/debug/DartConfiguration.tcl
Test project /home/jzakrzewski/server/build/debug
Constructing a list of tests
Hello World
Done constructing a list of tests
Checking test dependency graph...
Checking test dependency graph end
test 1
	<cutoff>

So it's apparently working.
