Teach set_property and get_property an "INSTALL" property type to be
associated with install-tree file paths. Make the properties available
to CPack for use during packaging. Add a "prop_inst" Sphinx domain
object type for documentation of such properties.
Provide a function to write a portable header to detect compiler
features. Generate a preprocessor #error for unknown compilers
and compiler versions whose features are not yet recorded. This
error condition might be relaxed in the future, but for now it
is useful for verification of expectations.

These policies should be checked at the call site that tries to access
the LOCATION or SOURCES property, not the directory scope containing the
target. Thread the caller context through cmTarget::GetProperty to use
for checking the policy setting and emitting a diagnostic with proper
backtrace.
Extend the RunCMake.CMP0026 and RunCMake.CMP0051 tests with
cross-directory cases.
Include tests for:
- @ expansion during normal execution
- various characters in variable names for comparison between the new
and the old parser
- corner cases in the parsers
- correct messages when behavior is different

Commit b8af2011 (cmTarget: Fix listing of source files at
configure-time., 2014-04-13) refactored a GetObjectLibrariesCMP0026
method out of GetLanguages. In flight, a conditional use of a target
if available was changed to an assert-available.
This code is only used to read the LOCATION property at configure
time, when the link information is incomplete, and not all targets
are defined, so the assert is inappropriate, even though it can lead
to incorrect information being generated. CMP0026 warns about the
potentially incorrect information anyway.
8d0b1cca Features: FATAL_ERROR on compilers with no recorded features.
447fbb3f Tests: Execute compile features tests unconditionally.
597bb72e Tests: Run RunCMake.target_compile_features unconditionally.
Users of the new target_compile_features command are expected to
check the existence of the CMAKE_CXX_COMPILE_FEATURES variable before
attempting to use it to require features.
When the primary source tree path named by a DATA{} reference does not
exist, produce an AUTHOR_WARNING instead of a FATAL_ERROR. This is
useful when writing a new DATA{} reference to a test reference output
that has not been created yet. This way the developer can run the test,
manually verify the output, and then copy it into place to provide the
reference and eliminate the warning.
If the named source tree path is expected to be a file but exists as a
directory, we still need to produce a FATAL_ERROR.
Since commit e5da9e51 (cmTarget: Allow any generator expression in
SOURCES property., 2014-03-18), source files are computed by
true evaluation of generator expressions, including TARGET_OBJECTS.
This evaluation requires the presence of cmGeneratorTarget objects
since commit bf98cc25 (Genex: Evaluate TARGET_OBJECTS as a normal
expression., 2014-02-26).
Ensure that we don't attempt to evaluate the TARGET_OBJECTS generator
expression at configure-time, as can happen if CMP0024 or CMP0026
are OLD. Use old-style parsing of the source item to extract
object target names in that case.
Avoid calling GetProperty("SOURCES") to bypass warnings from CMP0051.
Refactor existing logic in GetLanguages which is similar in intent to
the new GetSourceFiles code.
Allow directories in the source tree or build tree only if the
install tree is a subdirectory of the source tree or build tree,
as appropriate.
Re-use the test files in the RunCMake.include_directories test
to run in multiple scenarios. Bump the required CMake version
in the test to 3.0 to ensure that the new policy warnings are
emitted correctly.
This can be used to set the compiler features required by particular
targets. An error is issued at CMake time if the compiler does not
support the required feature. If a language dialect flag is required
by the features used, that will be added automatically.
Base the target_compile_features command on cmTargetPropCommandBase. This
gives us 'free' handling of IMPORTED, ALIAS, INTERFACE, non-compilable
and missing targets.
Extend the interface of the target_compile_features command with
PUBLIC and INTERFACE keywords. Populate the INTERFACE_COMPILER_FEATURES
target property if they are set. Consume the INTERFACE_COMPILER_FEATURES
target property from linked dependent targets to determine the final
required compiler features and the compile flag, if needed.
Use the same pattern of origin-debugging which is used for other
build properties.
Record the availability of this feature for GNU 4.8 on (UNIX AND
NOT APPLE) only. In the future, availability can be recorded for
earlier GNU, for other platforms and for other compilers. Initially
the affected configurations are as restricted as possible to allow
for easy testing while extending the features vector in only one
dimension.
The error message when using the set_property API directly is not
very good, but follow up commits will provide origin debugging of
the property and a target_compile_features command which will
provide a configure-time backtrace when possible.
This will allow decoupling the name of the test from the name and
location of the source file under test, which means one source
file can be used for multiple tests.
Rename the PARENT_SCOPE test in RunCMake.set to not use a keyword
of the if() command as a file name. As the filename is now used
with an if condition, this causes a conflict.

Disallow the use of config-specific source files with
the Visual Studio and Xcode generators. They don't have
any way to represent the condition currently.
Use the same common-config API in cmQtAutoGenerators. While
it accepts config-specific files, it doesn't have to support
multiple configurations yet.
Loop over the configs in cmTargetTraceDependencies
and cmGlobalGenerator::WriteSummary and consume all source
files.
Loop over the configs in cmComputeTargetDepends and compute the
object library dependencies for each config.
The output of this expression may contain macros for IDEs to replace
such as $(Configuration), $(CURRENT_ARCH) etc. To avoid generating
content which is not usable in other contexts, report an error if
there is an attempt to use it in other contexts.
This commit may be reverted in the future if a solution to the
above difference is implemented.
Remove use of UseObjectLibraries from Makefile and Ninja generators. It
is not needed now because those generators use GetExternalObjects
which already contains the objects from object libraries.
The VS10 generator calls both the UseObjectLibraries and the GetExternalObjects
methods. Ensure that duplicates are not created by skipping objects
from object libraries in handling of GetExternalObjects.
Similarly, fix VS6, VS7 and Xcode object handling by skipping
external objects from OBJECT_LIBRARY usage as appropriate.
The error message in the BadSourceExpression1 test is now reported
by the generator expression evaluator, so it has different text.
