...
Since commit fd33bf93 (fix for bug 6102, allow users to change the
compiler, 2007-12-13) we keep an internal ;-list of language compiler
variable and value pairs. Preserve empty values on expansion to ensure
that the key/value pairing remains consistent.
This is needed in the case that Automoc is used, as that calls
GetIncludeDirectories, which may cache the resulting include dirs
too early in the generate step.
Also, because the automoc step is so early, we can't cache the
include directories at that point. At that point the build interface
of all dependencies are not populated yet, so we'd be caching the
includes before appending the build interface. Only start caching
when we're definitely generating the buildsystem. At that point, the
includes should be stable.
We still need to invoke AppendBuildInterfaceIncludes
in the GlobalGenerator because the build interface includes affect
mostly the dependencies of targets (such as the automoc targets),
rather than the targets themselves, so the build interface needs
to be appended for all targets before generation is done.
The ctest_configure command already reads the CTEST_CMAKE_GENERATOR
variable to get the value for the cmake -G option. Read new variable
CTEST_CMAKE_GENERATOR_TOOLSET for -T.
The "ctest --build-and-test" mode already has "--build-generator" to
specify the -G option to CMake. Add a "--build-generator-toolset" option
to specify the -T value.
Implement generator toolset selection (cmake -T) for VS >= 10 by setting
the PlatformToolset. Extend the RunCMake.GeneratorToolset test case to
verify CMAKE_GENERATOR_TOOLSET when the generator supports -T.
Since commit 485a940e (VS: Simplify MSVC version reporting, 2012-08-23)
all MSVC version information is detected during the compiler id step
from the actual compiler invoked by generated build systems rather than
hard-coded in VS generators. Therefore we can set the PlatformToolset
in VS >= 10 project files and support toolsets from other VS versions.
Reject the option by default. It will be implemented on a per-generator
basis. Pass the setting into try_compile project generation. Add cache
entry CMAKE_GENERATOR_TOOLSET and associated variable documentation to
hold the value persistently.
Add a RunCMake.GeneratorToolset test to cover basic "-T" option cases.
Verify that CMAKE_GENERATOR_TOOLSET is empty without -T, that -T is
rejected when the generator doesn't support it, and that two -T options
are always rejected.
This tracking was added during the development of commit 042ecf04
(Add API to calculate link-interface-dependent bool properties
or error., 2013-01-06), but was never used.
It was not necessary to use the content because what is really
useful in that logic is to determine if a property has been implied
to be null by appearing in a LINK_LIBRARIES genex.
I think the motivating usecase for developing the feature of
keeping track of the targets relevant to a property was that I
thought it would make it possible to allow requiring granular
compatibility of interface properties only for targets which
depended on the interface property. Eg:
add_library(foo ...)
add_library(bar ...)
add_executable(user ...)
# Read the INTERFACE_POSITION_INDEPENDENT_CODE from bar, but not
# from foo:
target_link_libraries(user foo $<$<TARGET_PROPERTY:POSTITION_INDEPENDENT_CODE>:bar>)
This obviously doesn't make sense. We require that INTERFACE
properties are consistent across all linked targets instead.
We need to make sure expressions which evaluate TARGET_PROPERTY:TYPE
multiple times for example get the correct result each time, and
not an empty string instead.
As INTERFACE_COMPILE_DEFINITIONS are now possible, we can have
situations like this:
add_library(foo ...)
add_library(bar ...)
target_link_libraries(foo bar)
target_compile_definitions(bar INTERFACE SOME_DEF)
The INTERFACE_COMPILE_DEFINITIONS of bar determine how foo should be
compiled, and if they change, foo should be rebuilt.
Additionally, as of commit d1446ca7 (Append the COMPILE_DEFINITIONS
from the Makefile to all targets., 2012-09-17), we don't need to
read definitions from the makefile if we read them from the target,
so also de-duplicate the cached info.
The DependInfo for INTERFACE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES is already handled
correctly.
Remove the old "nocwd" behavior that attempts to provide the "--help"
output when no working directory is available. The long help output
scrolls the real error message out of typical terminal sizes. Also
execute as little code as possible when no working directory exists.
Since commit 08cb4fa4 (Process generator expressions in the
INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES property., 2012-09-18), it is possible to use
generator expressions with the include_directories command.
As that command can also have a SYSTEM argument, ensure that the
result of using that argument with generator expressions gives a
sane result.

The commit 18a3195a ('Keep track of INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES as a vector
of structs.', 2012-11-19) moved the handling of includes from
cmGeneratorTarget to cmTarget, but in the process introduced this
bug.
link.exe has problems with very very long lines in rsp files too.
Use $in_newline instead of $in variable for rspcontent which
separates the arguments with a newline instead of a simple space
and was specially made for this purpose.
Since commit d46d8df0 (Re-implemented cmGeneratedFileStream to look like a
real stream and replace the destination file atomically, 2004-11-03) our
RenameFile implementation tries to deal with MoveFile not replacing
read-only files. In order to avoid the Get/SetFileAttributes pair we used
stat to test for existence of the destination file. This has a race in
which the destination could be created between the test for existence and
the MoveFile call.
Remove the stat call and use GetFileAttributes to detect whether the file
exists. This shortens the race but does not eliminate it. Use a loop to
try multiple times in case we lose the race. While at it, drop Win9x
support and always use MoveFileEx.
Generator expressions whose output depends on the configuration
now record that fact. The GetIncludeDirectories method can use
that result to cache the include directories for later calls.
GetIncludeDirectories is called multiple times for a target
for each configuration, so this should restore performance for
multi-config generators.
While porting boost to use these features, the generation step took
too long (several minutes before I stopped it). The reason was that
the boost libraries form a large interdependent mesh. The libraries
list their dependencies in their INTERFACE such as:
$<LINKED:boost::core>;$<LINKED:boost::config>;$<LINKED:boost::mpl>
As boost::core already depends on the boost::config libraries, that
expression has no impact on the end-content, as it is removed after
the generation step. There is no DAG issue though, so the generator
expression evaluation would fully evaluate them. In the case of the
config library, it also depends on the core library, so all depends
are followed through that again, despite the fact that they've just
been evaluated. After this patch, the evaluation skips libraries if
they have already been seen via depends or directly in the content.
This patch keeps track of targets whose INTERFACE has been consumed
already. The INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES and COMPILE_DEFINITIONS properties
are whitelisted because repeated content will be stripped out later
during generation. For other properties now and in the future, that
may not be the case.
This establishes that linking is used to propagate usage-requirements
between targets in CMake code. The use of the target_link_libraries
command as the API for this is chosen because introducing a new command
would introduce confusion due to multiple commands which differ only in
a subtle way.
This is both a short form of using a TARGET_DEFINED expression
together with a TARGET_PROPERTY definition, and a way to strip
non-target content from interface properties when exporting.
Projects set interface requirements upstream, and existing
downstreams use of target_link_libraries will consume those interfaces.
This can create a backward compatibility concern as the result may
be changing the order of include directories of downstreams, or another
side-effect of using the INTERFACE properties.
Provide a way for them to emulate the behavior of a version-based
policy in the config file.
Both commit 8a37ebec (Add the target_include_directories command,
2013-01-01) and commit fc61a7a7 (Add the target_compile_definitions
command, 2013-01-08) added command implementations deriving from the new
cmTargetPropCommandBase class. Fix cmTypeMacro declarations of the
inheritance relationship.
7bf490e Make subclasses responsible for joining content.

We need to make sure we can export targets which have content such

That means making not finding a target non-fatal here.
Explain in the documentation for the legacy signature
target_link_libraries(foo bar)
that the other signatures like
target_link_libraries(foo LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES ...)
target_link_libraries(foo LINK_PRIVATE ...)
will set the LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES target property and therefore make
libraries specified only by the legacy signature private.
These interface-related link-libraries properties are used to determine
the value of the other INTERFACE properties, so we were getting infinite
recursion and segfaults otherwise.

With similar reasoning to the parent commit, as downstreams, we can't
determine what $<CONFIG> generator expressions would be appropriate.
Upstream would have populated the INTERFACE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES with
config-specific generator expressions, possibly appropriate for
their DEBUG_CONFIGURATIONS. In theory, if we would add include
directories for a DEBUG intent, we would have to match the upstream
configurations for that.
Rather than attempting to discover the appropriate configurations
at this time, simplify the feature instead. The use of IMPORTED targets
with these commands could still be added in the future if targets
would export their DEBUG_CONFIGURATIONS somehow.
This reverts commit 9cfe4f1b76.
It turns out that correctly adding the content to
the IMPORTED_LINK_INTERFACE_LIBARIES_<CONFIG> of an upstream target
from the buildsystem of a downstream project is not simple.
If upstream had added the INTERFACE content, the config-specific
properties would be determined by the DEBUG_CONFIGURATIONS of
upstream.
As downstream, we don't have any information about what
the DEBUG_CONFIGURATIONS of upstream were, so we can't determine
which configuration-specific properties to populate. The best we can do
is add it to all of them or add it to the ones downstream considers to
be DEBUG_CONFIGURATIONS, neither of which is a good solution.
So, removing the porcelain API for that is the best approach. A human
can still determine which properties to populate and use
the set_property API to populate the desired properies.
Another solution to this would be for upstream targets to publish
what they consider DEBUG_CONFIGURATIONS, but that can be added in
a future release.
During configure-time, GetIncludeDirectories may be called too, for example
if using the export() command. As the content can be different, it should
be output each time then.
Otherwise, we get a separate IncludeDirectoriesEntry for each include,
and that causes unnecessary and confusing splitting in the output when
debugging the INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES property.
The cache here needs to be cleared if GetLinkInformation is called
at configure-time, such as during an export().
The next commit does exactly that, and without this patch,
the LinkLanguage test would fail.
It is not necessary and the current state is unintentional. Before
this patch,
target_link_libraries(foo bar)
causes the LINK_LIBRARIES property of foo to contain
$<TARGET_NAME:bar>
instead of just
bar
This new expression allows checking how a policy was set when a target
was created. That information is only recorded for a subset of policies,
so a whitelist is used.
