set_property() has APPEND, which creates a list. E.g. when
appending to COMPILE_FLAGS a string is needed, not a list.
With the APPEND_STRING option the value is append as string,
not as list.

The CMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES variable works only as a global setting.
This commit defines target properties
OSX_ARCHITECTURES
OSX_ARCHITECTURES_<CONFIG>
to specify OS X architectures on a per-target and per-configuration
basis. See issue #8725.
In cmTarget we compute the link implementation, link interface, and link
closure structures on-demand and cache the results. This commit teaches
cmTarget to invalidate results after a LINK_INTERFACE_* property changes
or a new link library is added. We also clear the results at the end of
the Configure step to ensure the Generate step uses up-to-date results.
In cmTarget::SetProperty and cmTarget::AppendProperty we check whether
changing the property invalidates cached information. The check was
duplicated in the two methods, so this commit moves the check into a
helper method called from both.
This method is called during ConfigureFinalPass on every target. It
gives each target a chance to do some final processing after it is known
that no more commands will affect it. Currently we just call the old
AnalyzeLibDependencies that used to be called directly.
This creates cmTarget::GetFeature and cmMakefile::GetFeature methods to
query "build feature" properties. These methods handle local-to-global
scope and per-configuration property lookup. Specific build features
will be defined later.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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 passes the build configuration to most GetLinkerLanguage calls. In
the future the linker language will account for targets linked in each
configuration.
The new method centralizes loops that process raw OriginalLinkLibraries
to extract the link implementation (libraries linked into the target)
for each configuration. Results are computed on demand and then cached.
This simplifies link interface computation because the default case
trivially copies the link implementation.
These member structures are accessed only in the cmTarget implementation
so they do not need to be defined in the header. This cleanup also aids
Visual Studio 6 in compiling them.
This method previously required the global generator to be passed, but
that was left from before cmTarget had its Makefile member. Now the
global generator can be retrieved automatically, so we can drop the
method argument.
When LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES is not set we use the link implementation
to implicitly define the link interface. These changes centralize the
decision so that all linkable targets internally have a link interface.
This moves code implementing policy CMP0004 into cmTarget::CheckCMP0004.
The implementation is slightly simpler and can be re-used outside of
cmComputeLinkDepends.
This fixes cmTarget::GetLinkInterface to compute and return the link
interface in an exception-safe manner. We manage the link interface
returned by cmTarget::ComputeLinkInterface using auto_ptr.
This creates cmTarget::GetOutputInfo to compute, cache, and lookup
target output directory information on a per-configuration basis. It
avoids re-computing the information every time it is needed.
Internally cmTarget was passing the target type in several name
computation signatures to support computation of both shared and static
library names for one target. We no longer need to compute both names,
so this change simplifies the internals by using the GetType method and
dropping the type from method signatures.
This property was left from before CMake always linked using full path
library names for targets it builds. In order to safely link with
"-lfoo" we needed to avoid having both shared and static libraries in
the build tree for targets that switch on BUILD_SHARED_LIBS. This meant
cleaning both shared and static names before creating the library, which
led to the creation of CLEAN_DIRECT_OUTPUT to disable the behavior.
Now that we always link with a full path we do not need to clean old
library names left from an alternate setting of BUILD_SHARED_LIBS. This
change removes the CLEAN_DIRECT_OUTPUT property and instead uses its
behavior always. It removes some complexity from cmTarget internally.
This creates target properties ARCHIVE_OUTPUT_NAME, LIBRARY_OUTPUT_NAME,
and RUNTIME_OUTPUT_NAME, and per-configuration equivalent properties
ARCHIVE_OUTPUT_NAME_<CONFIG>, LIBRARY_OUTPUT_NAME_<CONFIG>, and
RUNTIME_OUTPUT_NAME_<CONFIG>. They allow specification of target output
file names on a per-type, per-configuration basis. For example, a .dll
and its .lib import library may have different base names.
For consistency and to avoid ambiguity, the old <CONFIG>_OUTPUT_NAME
property is now also available as OUTPUT_NAME_<CONFIG>.
See issue #8920.
This creates method cmTarget::GetOutputTargetType to compute the output
file type 'ARCHIVE', 'LIBRARY', or 'RUNTIME' from the platform and
target type. It factors out logic from the target output directory
computation code for later re-use.
This creates method cmTarget::GetSupportDirectory to compute a
target-specific support directory in the build tree. It uses the
"CMakeFiles/<name>.dir" convention already used by the Makefile
generators. The method will be useful for any code that needs to
generate per-target information into the build tree for use by CMake
tools that do not run at generate time.
The LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES target property may not contain the
"debug", "optimized", or "general" keywords. These keywords are
supported only by the target_link_libraries (and link_libraries) command
and are not a generic library list feature in CMake. When a user
attempts to add one of these keywords to the property value, we now
produce an error message that refers users to alternative means.
When creating an IMPORTED target for a library that has been found on
disk, it may not be known whether the library is STATIC or SHARED.
However, the library may still be linked using the file found from disk.
Use of an IMPORTED target is still important to allow per-configuration
files to be specified for the library.
This change creates an UNKNOWN type for IMPORTED library targets. The
IMPORTED_LOCATION property (and its per-config equivalents) specifies
the location of the library. CMake makes no assumptions about the
library that cannot be inferred from the file on disk. This will help
projects and find-modules import targets found on disk or specified by
the user.
This change introduces policy CMP0008 to decide how to treat full path
libraries that do not appear to be valid library file names. Such
libraries worked by accident in the VS IDE and Xcode generators with
CMake 2.4 and below. We support them in CMake 2.6 by introducing this
policy. See policy documentation added by this change for details.
- Previously this was done implicitly by the check for a target
link language which checked all source full paths.
- The recent change to support computing a link language without
finding all the source files skipped the implicit check.
- This change adds an explicit check to find all source files.
- Place the built library in foo.framework/Versions/A/foo
- Do not create unused content symlinks (like PrivateHeaders)
- Do not use VERSION/SOVERSION properties for frameworks
- Make cmTarget::GetDirectory return by value
- Remove the foo.framework part from cmTarget::GetDirectory
- Correct install_name construction and conversion on install
- Fix MACOSX_PACKAGE_LOCATION under Xcode to use the
Versions/<version> directory for frameworks
- Update the Framework test to try these things
- Policy is WARN by default so projects will build
as they did in 2.4 without user intervention
- Remove CMAKE_LINK_OLD_PATHS variable since it was
never in a release and the policy supercedes it
- Report target creation backtrace in warning message
since policy should be set by that point
- Add cmListFileBacktrace to record stack traces
- Move main IssueMessage method to the cmake class instance
(make the backtrace an explicit argument)
- Change cmMakefile::IssueMessage to construct a backtrace
and call the cmake instance version
- Record a backtrace at the point a target is created
(useful later for messages issued by generators)
- Add cmSystemTools::ChangeRPath method
- Add undocumented file(CHRPATH) command
- When installing use file(CHRPATH) to change the rpath
instead of relinking
- Remove CMAKE_CHRPATH lookup from CMakeFindBinUtils
- Remove CMAKE_USE_CHRPATH option since this should
always work
- Use linker search path -L.. -lfoo for lib w/out soname
when platform sets CMAKE_PLATFORM_USES_PATH_WHEN_NO_SONAME
- Rename cmOrderRuntimeDirectories to cmOrderDirectories
and generalize it for both soname constraints and link
library constraints
- Use cmOrderDirectories to order -L directories based
on all needed constraints
- Avoid processing implicit link directories
- For CMAKE_OLD_LINK_PATHS add constraints from libs
producing them to produce old ordering
