# The ``*_DIR`` options specify directories for the project, with default
# directories computed as follows. If the ``PREFIX`` option is given to
# ``ExternalProject_Add()`` or the ``EP_PREFIX`` directory property is set,
# then an external project is built and installed under the specified prefix::
#
# TMP_DIR = <prefix>/tmp
# STAMP_DIR = <prefix>/src/<name>-stamp
# DOWNLOAD_DIR = <prefix>/src
# SOURCE_DIR = <prefix>/src/<name>
# BINARY_DIR = <prefix>/src/<name>-build
# INSTALL_DIR = <prefix>
#
# Otherwise, if the ``EP_BASE`` directory property is set then components
# of an external project are stored under the specified base::
#
# TMP_DIR = <base>/tmp/<name>
# STAMP_DIR = <base>/Stamp/<name>
# DOWNLOAD_DIR = <base>/Download/<name>
# SOURCE_DIR = <base>/Source/<name>
# BINARY_DIR = <base>/Build/<name>
# INSTALL_DIR = <base>/Install/<name>
#
# If no ``PREFIX``, ``EP_PREFIX``, or ``EP_BASE`` is specified then the
# default is to set ``PREFIX`` to ``<name>-prefix``. Relative paths are
# interpreted with respect to the build directory corresponding to the
# source directory in which ``ExternalProject_Add`` is invoked.
#
# If ``SOURCE_DIR`` is explicitly set to an existing directory the project
# will be built from it. Otherwise a download step must be specified
# using one of the ``DOWNLOAD_COMMAND``, ``CVS_*``, ``SVN_*``, or ``URL``
# options. The ``URL`` option may refer locally to a directory or source
# tarball, or refer to a remote tarball (e.g. ``http://.../src.tgz``).
#
# The ``ExternalProject_Add_Step`` function adds a custom step to an
# external project:
#
# .. code-block:: cmake
#
# ExternalProject_Add_Step(<name> <step> # Names of project and custom step
# [COMMAND cmd...] # Command line invoked by this step
# [COMMENT "text..."] # Text printed when step executes

# [EXCLUDE_FROM_MAIN 1] # Main target does not depend on this step
# [WORKING_DIRECTORY dir] # Working directory for command
# [LOG 1] # Wrap step in script to log output
# )
#
# The command line, comment, and working directory of every standard and
# custom step is processed to replace tokens ``<SOURCE_DIR>``,
# ``<BINARY_DIR>``, ``<INSTALL_DIR>``, and ``<TMP_DIR>`` with
# corresponding property values.
#
# Any builtin step that specifies a ``<step>_COMMAND cmd...`` or custom
# step that specifies a ``COMMAND cmd...`` may specify additional command
# lines using the form ``COMMAND cmd...``. At build time the commands
# will be executed in order and aborted if any one fails. For example::
#
# ... BUILD_COMMAND make COMMAND echo done ...
#
# specifies to run ``make`` and then ``echo done`` during the build step.
# Whether the current working directory is preserved between commands is
# not defined. Behavior of shell operators like ``&&`` is not defined.
#
# The ``ExternalProject_Get_Property`` function retrieves external project
# target properties::
#
# ExternalProject_Get_Property(<name> [prop1 [prop2 [...]]])
#
# It stores property values in variables of the same name. Property
# names correspond to the keyword argument names of
# ``ExternalProject_Add``.
#
# The ``ExternalProject_Add_StepTargets`` function generates custom
# targets for the steps listed::
#
# ExternalProject_Add_StepTargets(<name> [step1 [step2 [...]]])
#
# If ``STEP_TARGETS`` is set then ``ExternalProject_Add_StepTargets`` is
# automatically called at the end of matching calls to
# ``ExternalProject_Add_Step``. Pass ``STEP_TARGETS`` explicitly to
# individual ``ExternalProject_Add`` calls, or implicitly to all
# ``ExternalProject_Add`` calls by setting the directory property
# ``EP_STEP_TARGETS``.
#
# If ``STEP_TARGETS`` is not set, clients may still manually call
# ``ExternalProject_Add_StepTargets`` after calling
# ``ExternalProject_Add`` or ``ExternalProject_Add_Step``.
#
# This functionality is provided to make it easy to drive the steps
# independently of each other by specifying targets on build command
# lines. For example, you may be submitting to a sub-project based
# dashboard, where you want to drive the configure portion of the build,
# then submit to the dashboard, followed by the build portion, followed
# by tests. If you invoke a custom target that depends on a step
# halfway through the step dependency chain, then all the previous steps
# will also run to ensure everything is up to date.
#
# For example, to drive configure, build and test steps independently
# for each ``ExternalProject_Add`` call in your project, write the following

The ``*_DIR`` options specify directories for the project, with default
directories computed as follows. If the ``PREFIX`` option is given to
``ExternalProject_Add()`` or the ``EP_PREFIX`` directory property is set,
then an external project is built and installed under the specified prefix::
TMP_DIR = <prefix>/tmp
STAMP_DIR = <prefix>/src/<name>-stamp
DOWNLOAD_DIR = <prefix>/src
SOURCE_DIR = <prefix>/src/<name>
BINARY_DIR = <prefix>/src/<name>-build
INSTALL_DIR = <prefix>
Otherwise, if the ``EP_BASE`` directory property is set then components
of an external project are stored under the specified base::
TMP_DIR = <base>/tmp/<name>

DOWNLOAD_DIR = <base>/Download/<name>
SOURCE_DIR = <base>/Source/<name>
BINARY_DIR = <base>/Build/<name>

If no ``PREFIX``, ``EP_PREFIX``, or ``EP_BASE`` is specified then the
default is to set ``PREFIX`` to ``<name>-prefix``. Relative paths are
interpreted with respect to the build directory corresponding to the
source directory in which ``ExternalProject_Add`` is invoked.
If ``SOURCE_DIR`` is explicitly set to an existing directory the project
will be built from it. Otherwise a download step must be specified
using one of the ``DOWNLOAD_COMMAND``, ``CVS_*``, ``SVN_*``, or ``URL``
options. The ``URL`` option may refer locally to a directory or source
tarball, or refer to a remote tarball (e.g. ``http://.../src.tgz``).
.. command:: ExternalProject_Add_Step
The ``ExternalProject_Add_Step`` function adds a custom step to an
external project::
ExternalProject_Add_Step(<name> <step> [<option>...])
Options are:

Main target does not depend on this step
``WORKING_DIRECTORY <dir>``

The command line, comment, and working directory of every standard and
custom step is processed to replace tokens ``<SOURCE_DIR>``,
``<BINARY_DIR>``, ``<INSTALL_DIR>``, and ``<TMP_DIR>`` with
corresponding property values.
Any builtin step that specifies a ``<step>_COMMAND cmd...`` or custom
step that specifies a ``COMMAND cmd...`` may specify additional command
lines using the form ``COMMAND cmd...``. At build time the commands
will be executed in order and aborted if any one fails. For example::
... BUILD_COMMAND make COMMAND echo done ...
specifies to run ``make`` and then ``echo done`` during the build step.
Whether the current working directory is preserved between commands is
not defined. Behavior of shell operators like ``&&`` is not defined.
.. command:: ExternalProject_Get_Property
The ``ExternalProject_Get_Property`` function retrieves external project
target properties::
ExternalProject_Get_Property(<name> [prop1 [prop2 [...]]])
It stores property values in variables of the same name. Property
names correspond to the keyword argument names of
``ExternalProject_Add``.
.. command:: ExternalProject_Add_StepTargets
The ``ExternalProject_Add_StepTargets`` function generates custom
targets for the steps listed::
ExternalProject_Add_StepTargets(<name> [step1 [step2 [...]]])
If ``STEP_TARGETS`` is set then ``ExternalProject_Add_StepTargets`` is
automatically called at the end of matching calls to
``ExternalProject_Add_Step``. Pass ``STEP_TARGETS`` explicitly to
individual ``ExternalProject_Add`` calls, or implicitly to all
``ExternalProject_Add`` calls by setting the directory property
``EP_STEP_TARGETS``.
If ``STEP_TARGETS`` is not set, clients may still manually call
``ExternalProject_Add_StepTargets`` after calling
``ExternalProject_Add`` or ``ExternalProject_Add_Step``.
This functionality is provided to make it easy to drive the steps
independently of each other by specifying targets on build command
lines. For example, you may be submitting to a sub-project based
dashboard, where you want to drive the configure portion of the build,
then submit to the dashboard, followed by the build portion, followed
by tests. If you invoke a custom target that depends on a step
halfway through the step dependency chain, then all the previous steps
will also run to ensure everything is up to date.
For example, to drive configure, build and test steps independently
for each ``ExternalProject_Add`` call in your project, write the following
line prior to any ``ExternalProject_Add`` calls in your ``CMakeLists.txt``
file::
set_property(DIRECTORY PROPERTY EP_STEP_TARGETS configure build test)
