Perl Issue (Feedback Only)

This is not a known bug nor a request for help, so please only respond if you have seen or are experiencing this issue.

Due to a unique circumstance on my laptop computer, I discovered the following message during a cmake configuration session:

'Found Perl: C:/Program Files/Git/bin/perl.exe (found version "5.8.8")'

If anyone has noticed that their 'perl.exe' location/version does not match their installed location/version, please reply
and I'll look into turning this into an actual bug report.

As for my actual server computer, I do have perl properly installed and have no issues with it.

Is that directory in your path before the actual perl directory?

You can see how cmake tries to find perl by looking at the various find modules in the modules directory here: http://cmake.org/gitweb?p=cmake.git;a=tree

Code:

if(WIN32)

  35   get_filename_component(

  36     ActivePerl_CurrentVersion

  37     "[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\ActiveState\\ActivePerl;CurrentVersion]"

  38     NAME)

  39   set(PERL_POSSIBLE_BIN_PATHS ${PERL_POSSIBLE_BIN_PATHS}

  40     "C:/Perl/bin"

  41     [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\ActiveState\\ActivePerl\\${ActivePerl_CurrentVersion}]/bin

  42     )

  43 endif()

User error...

I setup a manual directory on my laptop for my perl dependency and did not copy perl.exe to it.

It was still in my 'building' directory and not in the %PATH% one.

Sorry about that...
