Create target property WINDOWS_EXPORT_ALL_SYMBOLS to automatically
generate a module definition file from MS-compatible .obj files and give
it to the linker in order to export all symbols from the .dll part of a
SHARED library.
In commit v3.2.0-rc1~272^2~2 (Makefile: Fix rebuild with multiple custom
command outputs, 2014-12-05) we changed the generated makefile pattern
for multiple outputs from
out1: depends...
commands...
out2: out1
to
out1 out2: depends...
commands...
This was based on the incorrect assumption that make tools would treat
this as a combined output rule and run the command(s) exactly once for
them. It turns out that instead this new pattern is equivalent to
out1: depends...
commands...
out2: depends...
commands...
so the commands may be run more than once.
Some documents suggest using a "dedicated witness" stamp file:
stamp: depends...
rm -f stamp
touch stamp.tmp
commands...
mv stamp.tmp stamp
out1 out2: stamp
However, if the commands fail the error message will refer to the stamp
instead of any of the real outputs, which may be confusing to readers.
Also, this approach seems to have the same behavior of the original
approach that motiviated the above commit: multiple invocations are
needed to bring consumers of the outputs up to date.
Instead we can return to the original approach but add an explicit
touch to each extra output rule:
out1: depends...
commands...
out2: out1
touch -c out2
This causes make tools to recognize that all outputs have changed and
therefore to execute any commands that consume them.
Fix the generated makefiles for custom commands with multiple outputs to
list all the outputs on the left hand side of the build rule. This is
much simpler and more reliable than the old multiple-output-pair
infrastructure.
Drop the CMAKE_NO_QUOTED_OBJECTS internal variable from the Makefile
generators. The underlying problem is with the Watcom linker, not with
WMake. The Watcom linker wants object files to be single-quoted. Add
<LINK-RULE>_USE_WATCOM_QUOTE platform information variables to tell the
generators to use Watcom-style single quotes for object files on link
lines.
On Windows, Watcom uses the GetCommandLine API to get the original
command-line string and do custom parsing that expects single quotes.
On POSIX systems, Watcom approximates the original command line by
joining all argv[] entries separated by a single space. Therefore we
need to double-quote the single-quoted arguments so that the shell does
not consume them and they are available for the parser to see.
Use the clang RemoveCStrCalls tool to automatically migrate the
code. This was only run on linux, so does not have any positive or
negative effect on other platforms.
Work around the command-line-length limit by using an @linklibs.rsp
response file to pass the flags for link libraries. This allows
very long lists of libraries to be used in addition to the existing
support for passing object files via response file.

The generators for executable and library targets duplicate the logic to
call the OutputLinkLibraries helper on the local generator. Factor it
out into a cmMakefileTargetGenerator::CreateLinkLibs method to avoid
dpulication.
Since commit v2.8.12~437^2~2 (VS: Separate compiler and linker PDB files
2013-04-05) we no longer set /Fd with the PDB_NAME or PDB_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY
properties. Those properties now exclusively handle linker PDB files.
Since STATIC libraries do not link their compiler PDB file becomes more
important. Add new target properties "COMPILE_PDB_NAME[_<CONFIG>]" and
"COMPILE_PDB_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY[_<CONFIG>]" to specify the compiler PDB
file location and pass the value to the MSVC /Fd option.
The <OBJECT_DIR> placeholder is supposed to be the base intermediate
files directory for the current target. This is how it gets replaced
during link line generation. However, during compile line generation
we replace it with the directory containing the current object file
which may be a subdirectory. Fix replacement of <OBJECT_DIR> in the
generated compile lines to be the base intermediate files directory.
This was expoxed by commit 42ba1b08 (VS: Separate compiler and linker
PDB files, 2013-04-05) when we added a "/Fd<OBJECT_DIR>/" flag to the
MSVC compile line in order to match the VS IDE default compiler program
database location in the intermediate files directory. For source files
in a subdirectory relative to the current target this caused the wrong
location to be used for the compiler program database. This becomes
particularly important when using precompiled headers.
While at it, use the cmTarget::GetSupportDirectory method to compute the
intermediate files directory for the current target instead of repeating
the logic in a few places.
Commit b04f3b9a (Create make rules for INTERFACE_LIBRARY
targets., 2013-08-21) extended the makefile generator to create
build targets for INTERFACE_LIBRARY targets. No other generators
were extended with this feature.
This conflicts with the feature of whitelisting of target properties
read from INTERFACE_LIBRARY targets. The INTERFACE_* properties
of the INTERFACE_LIBRARY may legitimately contain TARGET_PROPERTY
generator expressions for reading properties from the 'head target'.
The 'head target' would be the INTERFACE_LIBRARY itself when creating
the build rules for it, which means that non-whitelisted properties
would be read.
As an INTERFACE_LIBRARY has no direct link dependencies, we can
short-circuit in cmGeneratorExpressionEvaluator and
in cmGlobalGenerator::CheckLocalGenerators.
As they do not generate any output directly, any generate- or install-
related code acn also be short-circuited. Many of the local generators
already do this.
Because only INTERFACE related properties make sense on INTERFACE_LIBRARY
targets, avoid setting other properties, for example via defaults.
Just enough to reach the BuildMacContentDirectory method and the
NeedRelinkBeforeInstall methods.
In the future, those methods can be moved to cmGeneratorTarget.
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.
As CMAKE_ROOT_FIND_PATH can be a list, a new CMAKE_SYSROOT is
introduced, which is never a list.
The contents of this variable is passed to supporting compilers
as --sysroot. It is also accounted for when processing implicit
link directories reported by the compiler, and when generating
RPATH information.
This fixes bug #13797.
The kinds of changes applied in 373faae5 for frameworks are now
applied to CFBundle. The prefix and suffix for CFBundles are
now handled in cmTarget::GetFullNameInternal.
Make handling of directory separators consistent between
non-bundle and bundle code.
Remove xcode specific flag from cmTarget when getting install_name.
Add (more) consistent convenience functions in cmTarget to get
directories inside of bundles and frameworks to add files to.
This refactor also fixes bug #12263 where frameworks
had the wrong install name when SKIP_BUILD_RPATH.
Also make install_name for frameworks consistent between Makefile
and Xcode generator.
This is for consistency throughout cmake. The cmsys version exists
becaues uses of auto_ptr types as return types does not work with
some implementations in ancient compilers.

Add a boolean target property NO_SONAME which may be used to disable
soname for the specified shared library or module even if the platform
supports it. This property should be useful for private shared
libraries or various plugins which live in private directories and have
not been designed to be found or loaded globally.
Replace references to <CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_SONAME_${LANG}_FLAG> and
hard-coded -install_name flags with a conditional <SONAME_FLAG> which is
expanded to the value of the CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_SONAME_${LANG}_FLAG
definition as long as soname supports is enabled for the target in
question. Keep expanding CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_SONAME_${LANG}_FLAG in
rules in case third party projects still use it. Such projects would
not yet use NO_SONAME so the adjacent <TARGET_SONAME> will always be
expanded. Make <TARGET_INSTALLNAME_DIR> NO_SONAME aware as well. Since
-install_name is soname on OS X, this should not be a problem if this
variable is expanded only if soname is enabled.
The Ninja generator performs rule variable substitution only once
globally per rule to put its own placeholders. Final substitution is
performed by ninja at build time. Therefore we cannot conditionally
replace the soname placeholders on a per-target basis. Rather than
omitting $SONAME from rules.ninja, simply do not write its contents for
targets which have NO_SONAME. Since 3 variables are affected by
NO_SONAME ($SONAME, $SONAME_FLAG, $INSTALLNAME_DIR), set them only if
soname is enabled.
