Use GetLinkImplementationLibraries instead of GetDirectLinkLibraries
because it tells us whether there will be any libraries to link after
evaluating generator expressions. Also GetDirectLinkLibraries will be
dropped soon.
Instead of storing just the string names in these structures, lookup any
target associated with each item and store its cmTarget pointer. Use
the cmLinkItem class to hold the name and pointer together. Update
client sites to use the pre-stored lookup result instead of looking up
the target name again.
Create a cmTarget::LookupLinkItems helper method to handle the lookup.
Since lookups are now moving from cmComputeLinkDepends::AddLinkEntries
to cmTarget::LookupLinkItems, move use of CheckCMP0004 to the latter.
This drops use of CheckCMP0004 from entries added for _LIB_DEPENDS
variables by cmComputeLinkDepends::AddVarLinkEntries, but I do not
think that use was intentional originally anyway.
Add a method like GetUtilities but that provides the target names
already looked up and resolved to cmTarget pointers internally. Update
call site in cmComputeTargetDepends::AddTargetDepend to use the
already-found target instead of looking it up again.
In cmTarget, cmGeneratorTarget, and cmGeneratorExpressionEvaluator, fix
target name lookups to occur in the cmMakefile context of the target
that referenced the name, not the current 'head' target. The context
matters for imported targets because they are directory-scoped instead
of globally unique. We already do this in cmComputeLinkDepends and
cmComputeTargetDepends.
Extend the InterfaceLibrary test with an example covering this behavior.
Move generator expression evaluation for imported library lists out of
GetImportInfo and into a new GetImportLinkInterface helper. This avoids
duplicating the computation and storage of all imported target info just
because some of it is parameterized on the 'head' target.
Many of the 'head' arguments added by commit v2.8.11~289^2~1 (Make
linking APIs aware of 'head' target, 2013-01-04) turned out not to be
needed. The "link implementation" of a target never needs to be
computed with anything but itself as the 'head' target (except for
CMP0022 OLD behavior because then it is the link interface).
Remove the unused 'head' target paths. Add "internal" versions of
cmTarget::GetDirectLinkLibraries and GetLinkImplementationLibraries
to support the CMP0022 OLD behavior without otherwise exposing the
'head' target option of these methods.
Create an ExpandLinkItems method to handle evaluation of generator
expressions in a library list and expansion of the ;-list into a vector.
Replace some duplicate copies of the implementation with calls to the
new helper.
Create a Platform/Android module that includes Platform/Linux since
Android is based on Linux. Provide only the minimal settings needed to
get builds with Android NDK toolchains to work.
Disable use of RPATH since the Android loader ignores it and we cannot
predict the install destination anyway.
Android supports soname but shared library names must end in ".so" and
we cannot represent the versioned names with associated symlinks on all
host operating systems anyway. However, we do want the SONAME of
library files to be set so that linking to them by path to the library
file produces NEEDED entries with the soname and not the path. Add a
new CMAKE_PLATFORM_NO_VERSIONED_SONAME setting to tell the
cmTarget::GetLibraryNames method that not to use the VERSION or
SOVERSION target properties in the soname.
Allow setting build properties based on the features available
for a target. The availability of features is determined at
generate-time by evaluating the link implementation.
Ensure that the <LANG>_STANDARD determined while evaluating
COMPILE_FEATURES in the link implementation is not lower than that
provided by the INTERFACE of the link implementation. This is
similar to handling of transitive properties such as
POSITION_INDEPENDENT_CODE.
The languages used in compiling STATIC libraries need to be propagated
to dependents regardless of the settings of INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES or
CMP0022. They are independent of the libraries in the link interface.
Prior to commit v2.8.12~192^2~2 (Introduce the INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES
property, 2013-06-04) the cmTarget::ComputeLinkInterface code path for
"explicitLibraries" could never be taken for STATIC libraries, so the
logic to propagate languages existed only in the non-explicitLibraries
code path. After that commit, INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES could be set for
STATIC libraries to cause the "explicitLibraries" code path to be taken.
The commit also left the old non-explicitLibraries code path conditional
on CMP0022 not being set to NEW. Thus link language propagation was
left missing from two cases by that commit.
The explicitLibraries code path was fixed to propagate languages by
commit v2.8.12~149^2~1 (cmTarget: Fix iface libraries and languages for
static libraries, 2013-07-26). However, the non-explicitLibraries case
was never taught to propagate languages when CMP0022 is set to NEW. Fix
that now. Factor the logic to propagate link languages out of the link
interface libraries conditions so that it always occurs. Update
Tests/Fortran to set CMP0022 to NEW to test this case (because the test
passes only if link language propagation works).
Add properties and variables corresponding to CXX equivalents.
Add features for c_function_prototypes (C90), c_restrict (C99),
c_variadic_macros (C99) and c_static_assert (C11). This feature
set can be extended later.
Add a <PREFIX>_RESTRICT symbol define to WriteCompilerDetectionHeader
to conditionally represent the c_restrict feature.
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.

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.
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.
The AddSource method accepts one file and tries to avoiding adding
it to the sources-list of the target if it already exists. This
involves creating many cmSourceFileLocation objects for matching
on existing files, which is an expensive operation.
Avoid the searching algorithm by appending the new sources as one
group. Generate-time processing of source files will ensure
uniqueness.
Add a new AddTracedSources for this purpose. The existing
AddSources method must process the input for policy CMP0049, but
as these source filenames come from cmSourceFile::GetFullPath(),
we can forego that extra processing.
Computing the language involves computing the source files, which
is an expensive operation. It requires calling
cmMakefile::GetOrCreateSource many times, which involves creating
and matching on many cmSourceFileLocation objects.
Source files of a target may depend on the head-target and the
config as of commit e6971df6 (cmTarget: Make the source files depend
on the config., 2014-02-13). The results are cached for each context
as of commit c5b26f3b (cmTarget: Cache the cmSourceFiles in
GetSourceFiles., 2014-04-05).
Each target in the build graph causes language computation of all
of its dependents with itself as the head-target. This means that
for 'core' libraries on which everything depends, the source files
are computed once for every transitive target-level-dependee and
the result is not cached because the head-target is different. This
was observed in the VTK buildsystem.
Short circuit the computation for targets which have a source-list
that is independent of the head-target. If the source-list has
already been computed and the generator expression evaluation
reports that it was context-independent, return the only source-list
already cached for the target. Reset the short-circuit logic when
sources are added and when the link libraries are re-computed.
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.
Use the contents of it to upgrade the CXX_STANDARD target property,
if appropriate. This will have the effect of adding the -std=c++11
compile flag or other language specification on GNU when that is
needed for the feature.
Avoid calling GetSourceFiles with the same result container multiple
times when tracing target dependencies. The result from the previous
configuration is cached and used later otherwise.
