Commit 438a7e2f (Fix utility dependencies for static libraries in VS
generators, 2007-04-04) implemented utility-only dependencies between
linkable targets by introducing an intermediate non-linkable target.
We convert a dependency of the form
foo -> bar
to the form
foo -> bar_UTILITY -> bar
to prevent foo from including bar on its link line. Previously we added
the extra "_UTILITY" targets explicitly among the project targets before
dependency analysis was performed. Now we generate them separately at
the last moment so that cmGlobalGenerator need not be aware of them.
Compute VS target dependencies in cmGlobalVisualStudioGenerator when the
main global dependency analysis is done. Use these results in each of
the VS generators instead of duplicating the analysis.
In cmGlobalGenerator::GetTargetSets we collect targets from all local
generators in a tree or subtree corresponding to a project() command.
Some targets, such as ALL_BUILD, are duplicated in each subdirectory
with a project() command. For such targets we should keep only the copy
for the top-most (root) local generator.
Previously this filtering was done in each VS IDE generator, but it is
easier to do it in one place when the targets are first encountered.
This also fixes bad ALL_BUILD dependencies generated for VS 7.0 because
the cmGlobalVisualStudio7Generator::WriteTargetDepends method was not
filtering out duplicates. Now we avoid duplicates from the start.
This commit cleans up the declaration, definition, and invocations of
the GetTargetSets method and related code. There is no change in
function except to make the method virtual.
This teaches the VS 6 IDE generator to use the transitive closure of
target dependencies. This re-uses much of the implementation already
done for the other VS>6 generators. See issue #8223 and issue #9568.
This converts the CMake license to a pure 3-clause OSI-approved BSD
License. We drop the previous license clause requiring modified
versions to be plainly marked. We also update the CMake copyright to
cover the full development time range.
- Created cmExportFileGenerator hierarchy to implement export file generation
- Installed exports use per-config import files loaded by a central one.
- Include soname of shared libraries in import information
- Renamed PREFIX to NAMESPACE in INSTALL(EXPORT) and EXPORT() commands
- Move addition of CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX to destinations to install generators
- Import files compute the installation prefix relative to their location when loaded
- Add mapping of importer configurations to importee configurations
- Rename IMPORT targets to IMPORTED targets to distinguish from windows import libraries
- Scope IMPORTED targets within directories to isolate them
- Place all properties created by import files in the IMPORTED namespace
- Document INSTALL(EXPORT) and EXPORT() commands.
- Document IMPORTED signature of add_executable and add_library
- Enable finding of imported targets in cmComputeLinkDepends
something like this:
ENABLE_LANGUAGE(ASM-ATT)
IF(CMAKE_ASM-ATT_COMPILER_WORKS)
... do assembler stufff
ELSE(CMAKE_ASM-ATT_COMPILER_WORKS)
... fallback to generic C/C++
ENDIF(CMAKE_ASM-ATT_COMPILER_WORKS)

"imported" executable target. This can then be used e.g. with
ADD_CUSTOM_COMMAND() to generate stuff. It adds a second container for
"imported" targets, and FindTarget() now takes an additional argument bool
useImportedTargets to specify whether you also want to search in the
imported targets or only in the "normal" targets.
Alex
add_custom_target() as COMMAND, and cmake will recognize them and replace
them with the actual output path of these executables. Also the dependency
will be added automatically. Test included.
ENH: moved TraceVSDependencies() to the end of GlobalGenerator::Configure(),
so it is done now in one central place
Alex
fix many bugs related to target names being computed inconsistently.
- Centralized computation of a target's file name to a method in
cmTarget. Now that global knowledge is always available the
*_CMAKE_PATH cache variables are no longer needed.
- Centralized computation of link library command lines and link
directory search order.
- Moved computation of link directories needed to link CMake targets
to be after evaluation of linking dependencies.
This also removed alot of duplicate code in which each version had its
own bugs.
This commit is surrounded by the tags

and

so make the large set of changes easy to identify.
