[Insight-developers] problem with Export header

[Bradley Lowekamp]

OK,

So the path:
>>> ./Modules/Core/Common/home/ajg23/DEVEL/ITK/Debug/Modules/Core/Common/ITKCommonExport.h
Has the "absolute" path after the relative path. I missed that the first time.

It is very likely related to the cmake version. The questions now are: Is it the "GenerateExportHeader.cmake" file? or the cmake core? or perhaps an issue with how we are using it?

To remove the need to potentially double the number of include paths needed( include a binary and source dir for each module), I thought it was best to place them all in the common binary module[1,2]. I believed that all modules and tests already included the common module.
