Hi alan,

I just pushed a commit to JSBSim which should fix the issue you reported.
Now you should no longer need to modify manually python\setup.py for the
test suite to build successfully.

Regarding the command ctest -I 5,40,45, it should be launched from
C:/FlightGear/jsbsim/build64/.
The executable ctest.exe is part of the CMake package.

Regards,

Bertrand.
