Some vendor tools convert PDB file names given on the command line to
lower-case before creating the file. When CMake places a mixed-case PDB
file name into the build system, the file does not exist the first time
and it is written with mixed case. After the first build though the
native tool has created a lower-case version of the file. If CMake does
CollapseFullPath again, the file exists so the actual-case lookup gets
the lower-case name. This causes the build files to change so the
project rebuilds.
The solution is to avoid calling CollapseFullPath for files generated by
the build. In the case of PDB files we already construct them from
paths that have been collapsed, so we can just skip the call altogether.
See issue #9350.
In cmMakefile::AddSubDirectory we were checking for addition of the same
source directory multiple times. However, the check code was incorrect
because it compared pointers instetad of pointed-to strings. Since the
check was written, a better check was added right after it to enforce
unique binary directories (in which case duplicate sources are fine).
This commit simply removes the old-style check code.
Before this change all targets were displayed in the top level directory of
the project. Now the targets are displayed in the correct directory.
The targets "clean" and "all" are now created in every subdirectory.
Also now the targets for just compiling one file, preprocessing one file,
assembling one file are are created for Eclipse.
Additionally all targets get a prefix now in eclipse, so that they are
sorted in a way which makes sense (global targets first, then executable and
libraries, then object files, then preprocessed, then assembly). Also
this prefix gives the user a hint what the target is, i.e. whether it's a
library or an executable or something else.

This commit teaches configure_file how to handle directories for input
and output. It is an error if the input is a directory. If the output
is a directory we put the configured copy of the input file in it with
the same name. See issue #9537.
The configure_file() command now converts relative output paths to full
paths using the current binary directory. Input relative paths were
already converted using the current source directory, but this behavior
was not previously documented.
Now gcc is queried also for the builtin definitions, and they are then added
to the .cproject file. This should make the preprocessor highlighting in
eclipse work better (#9272)
Patch mostly from Miguel.

The Intel Visual Fortran compiler plugin for MS Visual Studio may be one
of several versions of the Intel compiler. This commit teaches CMake to
detect the plugin version and set the version number in .vfproj files.
See issue #9169.
This method returns the registry key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\<version>
A protected GetIDEVersion method retrieves the version-specific part of
the key name.
The commit "Improve dynamic variable scope implementation" optimized
function scopes using an efficient parent scope pointer. However, the
parent scope used to initialize a new directory might not exist later
(like add_subdirectory called inside a function of the parent scope).
This caused CMake to crash when following the dangling pointer to the
original parent scope.
We fix the problem in this commit by always computing the closure of the
parent scope at directory initialization time so that no parent scope
pointer is needed. See issue #9538.
The cmProcess::Buffer class derives from std::vector. We were using
local variable 'data' in the GetLine method but this name shadowed a
member of vector with GNU. This renames it to 'text'.
When we clear the buffer for an output pipe after returning the last
partial line (without a newline) we need to set the partial line range
to empty. Otherwise the buffer object is left in an inconsistent state.
This commit fixes cmCTestRunTest and cmProcess to more efficiently
handle child output. We now use the buffer for each child output pipe
to hold at most a partial line plus one new block of data at a time.
All complete lines are scanned in-place, and then only the partial line
at the end of the buffer is moved back to the beginning before appending
new data.
We also simplify the cmProcess interface by making GetNextOutputLine the
only method that needs to be called while the process is running. This
simplifies cmCTestRunTest so that CheckOutput can be called until it
returns false when the process is done.
The commit "Remove barely-used cmMakefile::AddCacheDefinition" removed
all but one use of the cmCacheManager method 'bool' overload. This
commit removes the other use and the entire method, thus reducing code
duplication.
The commit "Remove barely-used cmMakefile::AddCacheDefinition" broke
option() calls that pass a non-boolean default value. We restore the
old behavior by always coercing the value to 'ON' or 'OFF'.
The GNU compiler warns about possible operator precedence mistakes and
asks for explicit parentheses (-Wparentheses). We add the parentheses
to silence the warning. This also fixes one real logic error in the
find_package() implementation by correcting expression evaluation order.
The set(CACHE) and option() commands should always expose the cache
value. Previously we failed to expose the value when it was already set
if a local variable definition hid it. When set to NEW, this policy
tells the commands to always remove the local variable definition to
expose the cache value. See issue #9008.
The boolean overload of this method was used only to implement option().
We re-implement option() in terms of the main method and removes the
now-unused signature. This removes some duplicate code that had already
fallen behind on changes (it was not removing the local definition
instead of setting it).
Basically the code is now a copy of the one from the CodeBlocks generator,
maybe this could move into a common helper function somewhere:
-only insert GLOBAL targets from the toplevel directory
-don't insert the edit_cache target if it calls ccmake, since this doesn't
work in the output tab of Eclipse
-add the /fast targets
Alex
Visual Studio 10 uses MSBuild to drive the build. Custom commands
appear in MSBuild files inside CustomBuild elements, which appear inside
ItemGroup elements. The Outputs and AdditionalInputs elements of each
CustomBuild element are evaluated according to timestamps on disk.
MSBuild does not use inputs/outputs to order CustomBuild steps within a
single ItemGroup or across multiple ItemGroup elements. Instead we must
put only unrelated CustomBuild elements in a single ItemGroup and order
the item groups from top to bottom using a topological order of the
custom command dependency graph.
This fixes CustomCommand and ExternalProject test failures, so we remove
the expectation of these failures.
In each target we trace dependencies among custom commands to pull in
all source files and build rules necessary to complete the target. This
commit teaches cmTarget to save the inter-source dependencies found
during its analysis. Later this can be used by generators that need to
topologically order custom command rules.
Until now the VS 10 generator did no Windows command-line escaping and
just did XML escapes. This commit teaches the generator to use the same
command-line escape addition code used by other generators. The script
construction method cmLocalVisualStudioGenerator::ConstructScript need
not do XML escapes. Each VS generator version adds the XML escapes
necessary for that version.
It seems that
while(i=file.get(), file)
iterates one character too much on HP-UX, let's see whether
while(file.get(c))
works, at least this is given as example on http://h30097.www3.hp.com/cplus/ifstream_3c__std.htm

-add all global targets from CMAKE_BINARY_DIR to the menu, but not from the subdirs
-add all utility targets to the menu, except the Nightly/Experimental/Continuous-"sub"targets as e.

In cmTarget we trace the dependencies of source files in the target to
bring in all custom commands needed to generate them. We clean up the
implementation to use simpler logic and better method names. The new
approach is based on the observation that a source file is actually an
input (dependency) of the rule that it runs (compiler or custom) even in
the case that it is generated (another .rule file has the rule to
generate it).
This teaches cmTarget to use a set of cmSourceFile pointers to guarantee
unique insertion of source files in a target. The order of insertion is
still preserved in the SourceFiles vector.
When CMake is invoked by the VS IDE re-run rule we compute whether or
not CMake really needs to re-run based on some timestamp helper files.
Previously we assumed that if the main generate.stamp file exists then
VS has correctly detected that the file is out of date. However, this
assumption is too aggressive and re-runs CMake unnecessarily sometimes.
This commit removes the assumption and always checks timestamps itself.
The change breaks the explicit user re-run request (R-click -> Compile)
but only in cases when the build system is already up to date.
The VS generators use a ZERO_CHECK target on which all other targets
depend to check whether CMake needs to re-run. This commit simplifies
the addition of a dependency on the target to all other targets.
We also move addition of dependencies to the beginning of the Generate
step. This allows the dependency on ZERO_CHECK to be included in the
global inter-target dependency analysis.
KWSys tries not to force anything on source files that include its
headers, but Borland warning 8027 leaves us no choice when we want to
have inline function definitions. This commit disables the warning for
the RegularExpression header and any file that includes it.
Until now CMake accidentally accepted add_subdirectory() and subdirs()
calls referring to directories that do not contain a CMakeLists.txt
file. We introduce CMake Policy CMP0014 to make this case an error.
This method tells the cmMakefile to read the input CMakeLists.txt file.
We factor out the call into a ReadInputFile method so it can be extended
without polluting the Configure method.
Much of the code in this method was dedicated to computing ObjectMaxPath
after configuring the directory. We move this last step into its own
ComputeObjectMaxPath method for better organization.
The cmLocalGenerator::Configure method sets its cmLocalGenerator
instance as the global generator's current local generator during
configuration. This commit refactors management of the current local
generator to use an automatic variable. This will allow early returns
from the method.
CMake Makefile generators silently ignore missing CMakeLists.txt files
and just treat the source directory as if it had an empty input file.
This will be addressed with a new CMake Policy, but for now we make the
VS generator consistent with the Makefile generator behavior. The VS
generator will need to handle the OLD behavior of the policy anyway.
The cmGlobalGenerator::AddTargetDepends method traces the dependencies
of targets recursively to collect the complete set of targets needed for
a given project (for VS .sln files). This commit teaches the method to
avoid tracing its dependencies more than once. Otherwise the code does
an all-paths walk needlessly.
We define the export(PACKAGE) command mode to store the location of the
build tree in the user package registry. This will help find_package
locate the package in the build tree. It simplies user workflow for
manually building a series of dependent projects.
A common user workflow is to build a series of dependent projects in
order. Each project locates its dependencies with find_package. We
introduce a "user package registry" to help find_package locate packages
built in non-standard search locations.
The registry explicitly stores locations of build trees providing
instances of a given package. There is no defined order among the
locations specified. These locations should provide package
configuration files (<package>-config.cmake) and package version files
(<package>-config-version.cmake) so that find_package will recognize the
packages and test version numbers.
We create target property "LINK_INTERFACE_MULTIPLICITY" and a per-config
version "LINK_INTERFACE_MULTIPLICITY_<CONFIG>". It sets the number of
times a linker should scan through a mutually dependent group of static
libraries. The largest value of this property on any target in the
group is used. This will help projects link even for extreme cases of
cyclic inter-target dependencies.
The 'binary' openmode does not exist on all compilers. We define macro
<kwsys>_ios_binary, where <kwsys> is the KWSys namespace, to refer to
std::ios::binary if it exists and 0 otherwise. Sample usage:
kwsys_ios::ifstream fin(fn, kwsys_ios::ios::in | kwsys_ios_binary);
In cmComputeLinkInformation::Compute we add implicit link information
from languages other than the linker language to the end of the link
line. This factors out that code into separate methods to improve
readability and organization.
CTest runs 'svn status' to identify modified and conflicting files in
the working directory. This commit fixes the interpretation of the 'X'
status, which corresponds to svn eXternals. This status should be
ignored rather than treated as a local modification.
This introduces a new syntax called "generator expressions" to the test
COMMAND option of the add_test(NAME) command mode. These expressions
have a syntax like $<TARGET_FILE:mytarget> and are evaluated during
build system generation. This syntax allows per-configuration target
output files to be referenced in test commands and arguments.
We creates methods IsDLLPlatform() and HasImportLibrary(). The former
returns true on Windows. The latter returns whether the target has a
DLL import library. It is true on Windows for shared libraries and
executables with exports.
We teach cmTestGenerator::GenerateScriptConfigs to use the general
cmLocalGenerator::EscapeForCMake method to write escaped test property
values into test scripts. This eliminates the previous hand-coded
escaping implementation.
The find_package commands looks at the "WhereBuild" registry entries
created by CMakeSetup and cmake-gui hoping that the project was recently
built. CMakeSetup created WhereBuild1..WhereBuild10 but cmake-gui
creates WhereBuild0-WhereBuild9.
This fixes find_package to look at WhereBuild0 so that the most recently
configured project can be found. It is important in the case that the
package to be found was the last one configured in cmake-gui but the
current project that is finding it is configured from the command line.
The try_compile command builds the cmTryCompileExec executable using the
cmTryCompileExec/fast target with Makefile generators in order to save
time since dependencies are not needed. However, in project mode the
command builds an entire source tree that may have dependencies.
Therefore we can use the /fast target approach only in one-source mode.
When building an entire source tree with try_compile instead of just a
single source file, it is possible that the CMakeLists.txt file in the
try-compiled project invokes try_compile. This commit fixes propagation
of language-initialization results from the outer-most project into any
number of try-compile levels.
The commit "Fix get_filename_component ABSOLUTE mode" broke the code
get_filename_component(cwd . ABSOLUTE)
because CTest scripts did not make cmMakefile::GetCurrentDirectory()
available. This commit fixes the problem by setting the proper
information on CTest script instances of cmMakefile.
This also makes CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR and CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR
available to CTest scripts. They are set to the working directory at
script startup.
CMake 2.4 generates old-style cmake_install.cmake code including calls
to the file(INSTALL) command with the COMPONENTS argument. We need to
set CMAKE_INSTALL_SELF_2_4 for the whole install tree to prevent the
command from complaining in this special case. Previously this was
needed only in the QtDialog directory, but now it is needed in the
entire tree.
The commit "Consider link dependencies for link language" taught CMake
to propagate linker language preference from languages compiled into
libraries linked by a target. It turns out this should only be done for
some languages, such as C++, because normally the language of the
program entry point (main) should be used.
We introduce variable CMAKE_<LANG>_LINKER_PREFERENCE_PROPAGATES to tell
CMake whether a language should propagate its linker preference across
targets. Currently it is true only for C++.
This factors the decision logic out of cmTarget::ComputeLinkClosure into
dedicated class cmTargetSelectLinker. We replace several local
variables with a single object instance, and organize code into methods.
All global generator CreateLocalGenerator methods automatically
initialize the local generator instances with SetGlobalGenerator. In
several places we were calling SetGlobalGenerator again after receiving
the return value from CreateLocalGenerator. The double-initializations
leaked the resources allocated by the first call to SetGlobalGenerator.
This fix removes the unnecessary calls.
We list implicit link items of languages linked into a target but filter
them by the implicit libraries known to be passed by the main linker
language. Implicit link flags like "-z..." should not be filtered out
because they are not libraries.
In cmComputeLinkInformation we recognize link options that look like
library file names, but pass flags starting in '-' through untouched.
This fixes the ordering of the check to recognize '-' flags first in
case the rest of the option looks like a library file name, as in the
case of "-l:libfoo.a".
In cmComputeLinkInformation we construct regular expressions to
recognize library file names. This fixes the expressions to not allow a
colon (':') in the file name so that "-l:libfoo.a" is left alone.
Some AIX/gcc version combinations the <cstdio> header breaks when large
file support is enabled. See this GCC issue for details:
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=20366
We work around the problem by enhancing the configuration check for
large file support to include <cstdio> when available. This will cause
LFS to be disabled when the above problem occurs.
This adds implicit libraries and search directories for languages linked
into a target other than the linker language to its link line. For
example, when linking an executable containing both C++ and Fortran code
the C++ linker is used but we need to add the Fortran libraries.
The variables
CMAKE_<LANG>_IMPLICIT_LINK_LIBRARIES
CMAKE_<LANG>_IMPLICIT_LINK_DIRECTORIES
contain the implicit libraries and directories for each language.
Entries for the linker language are known to be implicit in the
generated link line. Entries for other languages that do not appear in
the known implicit set are listed explicitly at the end of the link
line.
The "Keep only FinalPass commands in memory" commit caused instances of
this command to be deleted after the InitialPass. Even though the
variable_watch command does not have a final pass, it does need to stay
alive because it owns the callback information.
In cmMakefile we save all invoked commands so that FinalPass can be
called on them later. Most commands have no final pass, so we should
keep only the few that do.
This teaches CMake to detect implicit link information for C, C++, and
Fortran compilers. We detect the implicit linker search directories and
implicit linker options for UNIX-like environments using verbose output
from compiler front-ends. We store results in new variables called
CMAKE_<LANG>_IMPLICIT_LINK_LIBRARIES
CMAKE_<LANG>_IMPLICIT_LINK_DIRECTORIES
The implicit libraries can contain linker flags as well as library
names.
This teaches the command to recognize full windows paths when built on
UNIX. CollapseFullPath knows when the input path is relative better
than FileIsFullPath because the latter is only meant for paths from the
host platform.
Previously each new variable scope (subdirectory or function call) in
the CMake language created a complete copy of the key->value definition
map. This avoids the copy using transitive lookups up the scope stack.
Results of queries answered by parents are stored locally to maintain
locality of reference.
The class cmDefinitions replaces cmMakefile::DefinitionsMap, and is
aware of its enclosing scope. Each scope stores only the definitions
set (or unset!) inside it relative to the enclosing scope.
Generated makefiles for try-compile projects should never use color
output. On MSYS the color escapes end up in the try-compile output text
because there is no way to identify whether the output is going to a
color-capable terminal. Instead we should just always skip color for
try-compile projects.
This factors code out of cmOrderDirectories::CollectOriginalDirectories
into cmOrderDirectories::AddOriginalDirectories. Later a new call will
be added, and this is more readable anyway.
Add System_Parse_CommandForUnix to the KWSys System interface as a
utility to parse a unix-style command line. Move the existing
implementation out of ProcessUNIX. Add a flags argument reserved for
future use in providing additional behavior.
cmCTestScriptHandler, but have it load the new script CTestScriptMode.cmake
-> that makes it more flexible, also add a simple test that the system name
has been determined correctly
Alex
Now that languages are part of the link interface of a target we need to
export/import the information. A new IMPORTED_LINK_INTERFACE_LANGUAGES
property and per-config IMPORTED_LINK_INTERFACE_LANGUAGES_<CONFIG>
property specify the information for imported targets. The export() and
install(EXPORT) commands automatically set the properties.
Xcode does not seem to support direct requests for using the linker for
a particular language. It always infers the linker using the languages
in the source files. When no user source files compile with target's
linker language we add one to help Xcode pick the linker.
A typical use case is when a C executable links to a C++ archive. The
executable has no C++ source files but we need to use the C++ linker.
This teaches cmTarget to account for the languages compiled into link
dependencies when determining the linker language for its target.
We list the languages compiled into a static archive in its link
interface. Any target linking to it knows that the runtime libraries
for the static archive's languages must be available at link time. For
now this affects only the linker language selection, but later it will
allow CMake to automatically list the language runtime libraries.
This creates cmCTestHG to drive CTest Update handling on hg-based work
trees. Currently we always update to the head of the remote tracking
branch (hg pull), so the nightly start time is ignored for Nightly
builds. A later change will address this.
See issue #7879. Patch from Emmanuel Christophe. I modified the patch
slightly for code style, to finish up some parsing details, and to fix
the test.
