The result is that the depends of the target are created.
So,
add_library(somelib foo.cpp)
add_library(anotherlib EXCLUDE_FROM_ALL foo.cpp)
add_library(extra EXCLUDE_FROM_ALL foo.cpp)
target_link_libraries(anotherlib extra)
add_library(iface INTERFACE)
target_link_libraries(iface INTERFACE anotherlib)
Executing 'make iface' will result in the anotherlib and extra targets
being made.
Adding a regular executable to the INTERFACE of an INTERFACE_LIBRARY
will not result in the executable being built with 'make iface' because
of the logic in cmComputeTargetDepends::AddTargetDepend.
So far, this is implemented only for the Makefile generator. Other
generators will follow if this feature is possible for them.
Make INTERFACE_LIBRARY targets part of the all target by default.
Test this by building the all target and making the expected library
EXCLUDE_FROM_ALL.
With our modern development workflow it is less likely a property will
be added to C++ code without documentation. This mode only existed to
support the DocTest which had very limited coverage of the properties
anyway.
This allows the use of the $<TARGET_FILE:...> generator expression as a
replacement for the use of the LOCATION target property. The use of the
LOCATION target property is now deprecated for in-build targets.
Also drop other checks for older CMake versions:
* Simplify cmake_set_target_folder macro.
* Use find_package(LibArchive) unconditionally.
* Simplify condition for running testVisualStudioSlnParser test.
* Convert two macros to functions.
* Unconditionally run the CTestTestRerunFailed test.

This assumes that coverage.py has been run in such a way to produce its
standard XML output. This uses the Cobertura schema and should be somewhat
generalizable.
Add a new command line argument to ctest. This allows users to
rerun tests that failed during the previous call to ctest. This
is accomplished by analyzing the most recently modified file named
"^LastTestsFailed*" in the Testing/Temporary subdirectory of the
project's binary directory.
This target type only contains INTERFACE_* properties, so it can be
used as a structural node. The target-specific commands enforce
that they may only be used with the INTERFACE keyword when used
with INTERFACE_LIBRARY targets. The old-style target properties
matching LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES_<CONFIG> are always ignored for
this target type.
The name of the INTERFACE_LIBRARY must match a validity generator
expression. The validity is similar to that of an ALIAS target,
but with the additional restriction that it may not contain
double colons. Double colons will carry the meaning of IMPORTED
or ALIAS targets in CMake 2.8.13.
An ALIAS target may be created for an INTERFACE library.
At this point it can not be exported and does not appear in the
buildsystem and project files are not created for them. That may
be added as a feature in a later commit.
The generators need some changes to handle the INTERFACE_LIBRARY
targets returned by cmComputeLinkInterface::GetItems. The Ninja
generator does not use that API, so it doesn't require changes
related to that.
The lack of Qt4 on a system should silently skip the corresponding tests
with no other messages. This is already the case for other find_package
calls in Tests/CMakeLists.txt.
This is useful for cases like:
add_test(NAME mytest COMMAND mydriver $<TARGET_FILE:myexe>)
set_tests_properties(mytest PROPERTIES
REQUIRED_FILES "$<TARGET_FILE:myexe>"
WORKING_DIRECTORY "${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/$<CONFIGURATION>"
)
In this example we require the actual test executable to exist to
run the test in addition to the test driver at argv[0]. Also the
$<CONFIGURATION> expression improves over \${CTEST_CONFIGURATION_TYPE}
because the latter is not normalized for case-sensitive filesystems.
The Borland-built CTest binary has trouble running many instances of
itself in parallel, making the test unreliable. No particular recent
change appears to be the culprit and the failure is not reliably
reproducible. Just silence the failure for now by skipping the test.
* The ALIAS name must match a validity regex.
* Executables and libraries may be aliased.
* An ALIAS acts immutable. It can not be used as the lhs
of target_link_libraries or other commands.
* An ALIAS can be used with add_custom_command, add_custom_target,
and add_test in the same way regular targets can.
* The target of an ALIAS can be retrieved with the ALIASED_TARGET
target property.
* An ALIAS does not appear in the generated buildsystem. It
is kept separate from cmMakefile::Targets for that reason.
* A target may have multiple aliases.
* An ALIAS target may not itself have an alias.
* An IMPORTED target may not have an alias.
* An ALIAS may not be exported or imported.
This property replaces the properties which
match (IMPORTED_)?LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES(_<CONFIG>)?, and is enabled
for IMPORTED targets, and for non-IMPORTED targets only with a policy.
For static libraries, the INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES property is
also used as the source of transitive usage requirements content.
Static libraries still require users to link to all entries in
their LINK_LIBRARIES, but usage requirements such as INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES
COMPILE_DEFINITIONS and COMPILE_OPTIONS can be restricted to only
certain interface libraries.
Because the INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES property is populated unconditionally,
we need to compare the evaluated result of it with the link implementation
to determine whether to issue the policy warning for static libraries. For
shared libraries, the policy warning is issued if the contents of
the INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES property differs from the contents of the
relevant config-specific old LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES property.
If the CTest make program is not msbuild we find the msbuild
corresponding to the current test generator. In the case of
VS 12 search for the msbuild it provides.
Even with the NMake Makefiles generator, it is not able to properly
clean up after the test.

Internal cmake changing into directory: C:/Dashboards/My Tests/CMake-nmake10-x64-continuous/Tests/WarnUnusedCliUnused

Either remove the CMakeCache.txt file or choose a different binary directory.
It is common to specify a CMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE and get a warning
for using it despite it not being used.
The WarnUnusedCliUnused test relies on the warning being emitted
each time cmake is run on an existing build. That behavior is changed
by this patch to warn only on the first invokation of CMake, and not
on subsequent invokations (because the variable is in the cache with
the same value). For that test, a clean target is added which clears
the cache and cause the warning to be emitted each time.
As the Ninja generator does not support the feature needed to test
this, it is not tested with that generator.
Checkout [1] as an example of the test failures. In that particular cases, the
failures is caused by the plus sign in the path being pass unescaped
(buildd-cmake_2.8.9-1~bpo60+1-armel-3Lvkef) to the regexp.

In Qt 5.1, Qt5::Core has a INTERFACE_QT_MAJOR_VERSION property
of '5', and since CMake 2.8.11, Qt4::QtCore has an
INTERFACE_QT_MAJOR_VERSION of '4'. This was introduced in
commit 4aa10cd6 (FindQt4: Set the INTERFACE_QT_MAJOR_VERSION for
Qt4::QtCore, 2013-03-16), to produce an error if Qt 4 and Qt 5
are erroneously used by the same target. This can also be used
however to determine the Qt major version, and therefore the
particular moc executable to use during automoc steps. This means
that targets in a single buildsystem can use a selection of Qt 4
and Qt 5, and still take advantage of the CMAKE_AUTOMOC feature
without conflicting.

Add support to maintain designer functionality for Visual Studio C++
Windows Forms projects. Also add a test project showing how to use
the CMakeLists.txt file and, when successfully configured, will allow
use of the designer for the included form.
This allows the ctest_build command's TARGET option to name a target
in a subdirectory and still build properly with msbuild.
Add test case covering use of ctest_build() with such a TARGET.
Add test covering cmGlobalGenerator::GenerateBuildCommand for VS
solutions with MSBuild and building a target defined in a subdirectory
and not part of ALL.
In particular, this checks that CTest's use of select() has a sufficient
file descriptor set size limit (FD_SETSIZE) to handle many child
processes at the same time. Running 20 tests requires more than 64
descriptors, the Cygwin default that we override.
Since commit e03f83f3 (ProcessorCount test: fix path to cmsysTestsCxx
executable, 2013-01-24) the directory references a target that is not
built when BUILD_TESTING is OFF. It makes no sense to add tests without
BUILD_TESTING anyway.
While at it, use add_subdirectory instead of subdirs to add CMakeTests.
Commit 79568f95 (automoc: Add source file to target early to set the
linker language, 2013-02-20) changed automoc initialization to a two
step process. In the first step, the generated source file was added
to the target, which allows the link language to be determined.
However, this bypassed the check for the availability of Qt itself.
At build-time the automoc file could not be generated because the moc
tool was not available to create it.
The solution is to only add the automoc file to the target if Qt is
found.
