Bug Description

If you have (say) Zorba 2.6 installed on your system, you may have problems building (say) Zorba 2.7, because the build will find diagnostic_list.h from the earlier version. This at least is happening on a Mac when Zorba 2.6 is installed from the package and someone attempts to build Zorba 2.7 from source.

The Zorba build should ensure that all the src/ and build/ directories are FIRST on the include path.

If we set CMAKE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES_PROJECT_BEFORE to 1, this may be solved.

I cannot (anymore?) reproduce this on Linux, but my initial notes say it was found on a mac. Paul, can you try this out and see if there are any problems? If not, close this bug as Invalid.

Not sure how this was assigned to me since it's a build problem, i.e., a cmake problem, i.e., a problem for Chris.

Did you read the comment I made when I assigned the bug to you, Paul?

OK, I tried this out. I installed Zorba 2.6 from the .pkg file; built the trunk from scratch, and it failed with a compile-time error. I removed the installed Zorba, built the trunk from scratch again, and it worked fine. So, no, it's not fixed.

BTW: The failure was NOT in diagnostic_list.h, but rather include/zorba/util/base64_util.h. The problem isn't specific to a particular header, but rather it's the combination of old and new headers that causes problems. Which header in particular causes a problem is therefore virtually random.
