Whoops - I take it back. I see that it IS there in the 2.8 online docs, as a separate file(<COPY|INSTALL> entry as you said. Not terribly clear IMHO, but anyway. So I guess this is a new 2.8 feature (it really truly isn't there in 2.6.4).<br>

<br>Moreover, your script doesn't work here with CMake 2.6.4. Maybe it was added in CMake 2.8? I don't have that available for testing, but it's not in the online documentation for 2.8 either:<br><br><a href="http://www.cmake.org/cmake/help/cmake-2-8-docs.html#command:file" target="_blank">http://www.cmake.org/cmake/help/cmake-2-8-docs.html#command:file</a><br>
<br>I'm glad it's apparently been added, but I guess it must be a very new thing!<br><br>So, tell me - are there any other features for generically modifying file permissions without copying the file?<br><br>Ceej<br>
