[osg-users] Windows 7 beta: "The binary is not a valid Windows image."

[Jean-Sébastien Guay]

Hi Philip,

Thanks for your insight.

OK, seems ProductName contains "Windows 7 Ultimate" so using a test such 
as "contains 'Windows 7'" should work.

Using execute_process(), will CMake return the resulting string? If so, 
can I then do a pattern match (like a regex) on that string?

Thanks again,

J-S
