A common idiom in CMake-based build systems is to have custom commands
that generate files not listed explicitly as outputs so that these
files do not have to be newer than the inputs. The file modification
times of such "byproducts" are updated only when their content changes.
Then other build rules can depend on the byproducts explicitly so that
their dependents rebuild when the content of the original byproducts
really does change.
This "undeclared byproduct" approach is necessary for Makefile, VS, and
Xcode build tools because if a byproduct were listed as an output of a
rule then the rule would always rerun when the input is newer than the
byproduct but the byproduct may never be updated.
Ninja solves this problem by offering a 'restat' feature to check
whether an output was really modified after running a rule and tracking
the fact that it is up to date separately from its timestamp. However,
Ninja also stats all dependencies up front and will only restat files
that are listed as outputs of rules with the 'restat' option enabled.
Therefore an undeclared byproduct that does not exist at the start of
the build will be considered missing and the build will fail even if
other dependencies would cause the byproduct to be available before its
dependents build.
CMake works around this limitation by adding 'phony' build rules for
custom command dependencies in the build tree that do not have any
explicit specification of what produces them. This is not optimal
because it prevents Ninja from reporting an error when an input to a
rule really is missing. A better approach is to allow projects to
explicitly specify the byproducts of their custom commands so that no
phony rules are needed for them. In order to work with the non-Ninja
generators, the byproducts must be known separately from the outputs.
Add a new "BYPRODUCTS" option to the add_custom_command and
add_custom_target commands to specify byproducts explicitly. Teach the
Ninja generator to specify byproducts as outputs of the custom commands.
In the case of POST_BUILD, PRE_LINK, and PRE_BUILD events on targets
that link, the byproducts must be specified as outputs of the link rule
that runs the commands. Activate 'restat' for such rules so that Ninja
knows it needs to check the byproducts, but not for link rules that have
no byproducts.
The special case added by commit v2.4.0~3051 (When building CMake
itself, use the new cmake to install so that the current cmake can be
overwritten, 2004-06-09) does not make sense when cross-compiling.
The evaluation files must be known before cmTargetTraceDependencies
attempts to find them, but we must actually generate the files after
cmTargetTraceDependencies, as that can add to target SOURCES. The
limitation is that the generated output name must not depend on the
SOURCES of a target if the generated file is used by that target.
Mark the output files as GENERATED so that trace dependencies does
not expect them to already exist in the filesystem.
Move the invokation of ForceLinkerLanguage in the Generate logic
to after the generated file names are known. ForceLinkerLanguage
tries to determine the sources of a target (in order to determine
an already-known language) and otherwise fails to get information
about the generated file.
Test that the output of file(GENERATE) can be used as a target source
file and that accessing the target SOURCES in the name of the output
file is an error. Accessing the TARGET_OBJECTS would be a similar
error if it was legal to use that generator expression in this
context. That is not currently possible and is a different error
condition, so test the current error output as a reminder to change
the expected output if that becomes possible in the future. Test
that generated rule files resulting from cmTargetTraceDependencies
appear in the SOURCES generated in the output file.
Visual Studio 12 (2013) deprecated GetVersionEx:
warning C4996: 'GetVersionExW': was declared deprecated
in favor of either "versionhelpers.h" or VerifyVersionInfo, neither of
which exist in some of the older compilers we support. Rather than
try to port conditionally to VerifyVersionInfo, simply suppress the
warning for now.
In cmGlobalGenerator::EnableLanguage, fix error messages for missing
module files to actually name the missing module instead of using the
empty string returned by GetModulesFile.
Call SetSystemName, SetGeneratorPlatform, and SetGeneratorToolset
exactly once after reading CMakeSystem.cmake, and not again on another
call to enable_language() or project().
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_PLATFORM and associated variable documentation to
hold the value persistently.
Add a RunCMake.GeneratorPlatform test to cover basic use cases for the
option. Verify that CMAKE_GENERATOR_PLATFORM is empty by default, and
that it is rejected when the generator does not support a user setting.
Move handling of an empty toolset name into the implementation of the
method. This simplifies the VS 10 implementation of default toolset
selection because it has one code path that is always called.
The implementation of CMP0047 detects the QNX compiler id internally,
then changes it to GNU after the language is fully enabled. This is too
late to correctly set the old IS_GNU variables, so set them as part of
the policy OLD behavior.

No call sites pass NULL to the output argument, so take it by
reference to avoid the if(output) conditions. Propagate the
change through the TryCompile APIs that call it.
The cmGlobalGenerator::ResolveLanguageCompiler method, invoked only by
Makefile generators, contains code originally added by commit v2.4.0~796
(..., add new generators for msys and mingw, 2005-12-22) to compute the
full path to the compiler and save the result back into the cache value.
Since then the CMakeDetermine*Compiler modules have learned to resolve
the full path to the compiler and save it in CMake*Compiler.cmake files
configured in the build tree. The value of CMAKE_<LANG>_COMPILER in the
cache is now only for reference of what the user originally specified.
The full path is now available in a normal variable of the same name,
and this is used by project code and the generators.
When the user specifies -DCMAKE_<LANG>_COMPILER=name on the command-line
of an existing build tree that uses a Makefile generator, it is first
stored in the cache with an uninitialized type. Then later when
ResolveLanguageCompiler updates the cache entry and sets the type to
FILEPATH, cmMakefile::AddCacheDefinition does CollapseFullPath on the
"name" and ends up with something like "$PWD/name" which is unlikely to
be correct. Furthermore, cmMakefile::AddCacheDefinition proceeds to
remove the normal variable of the same name, so the value originally
saved in CMake<LANG>Compiler.cmake is ignored and the generators use the
wrong path to the compiler.
Resolve this by dropping the code from ResolveLanguageCompiler that
touches the cache value of CMAKE_<LANG>_COMPILER. As explained above it
is no longer needed anyway.
Make the virtual 'Generate' method protected. Make 'DoGenerate'
the main entry point to generation. This gives cmGlobalGenerator
a chance to do some early operations before the individual
generator-specific implementations take over.
Add a cmGlobalGenerator::SetSystemName virtual method. Call it from
cmGlobalGenerator::EnableLanguage as soon as CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME is known.
This will give generators a chance to adapt themselves to the target
system. Pass the cmMakefile instance to the method so that the
generator can update it accordingly. Return early from EnableLanguage
if SetSystemName returns false.
Delay use of CMAKE_GENERATOR_TOOLSET until the CMakeSystem.cmake
file has been configured and loaded during the first project() or
enable_language() command. This gives the toolchain file named by
CMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE a chance to set CMAKE_GENERATOR_TOOLSET. This
point is still early enough to set the generator toolset prior to
the initialization of any languages that might use the toolset.
The cmake::GeneratorToolset member variable remains an indication
of what was specified by the -T option or loaded from the cache.
It does not need to be updated based on the toolchain file setting.
The cmMakefile::TryCompile can still pass cmake::GeneratorToolset
into the inner instance because the try-compiled project will do
platform and language initialization using the CMakeSystem module
configured for the outer project.
Extend the RunCMake.GeneratorToolset test with cases that use a
toolchain file to set CMAKE_GENERATOR_TOOLSET.
Teach set_property and get_property an "INSTALL" property type to be
associated with install-tree file paths. Make the properties available
to CPack for use during packaging. Add a "prop_inst" Sphinx domain
object type for documentation of such properties.
Create a Modules/CMakeSystemSpecificInitialize.cmake module loaded after
CMakeSystem.cmake but before per-language initialization. Use it to
load an optional Platform/<os>-Initialize.cmake module. This will be
useful to do per-platform initialization that does not depend on the
language and use the results when enabling specific languages.

...
Disallow the use of config-specific source files with
the Visual Studio and Xcode generators. They don't have
any way to represent the condition currently.
Use the same common-config API in cmQtAutoGenerators. While
it accepts config-specific files, it doesn't have to support
multiple configurations yet.
Loop over the configs in cmTargetTraceDependencies
and cmGlobalGenerator::WriteSummary and consume all source
files.
Loop over the configs in cmComputeTargetDepends and compute the
object library dependencies for each config.
Add a ComputeObjectMapping method to compute the object
names. It takes mapping to populate as an out-parameter so
that it can be extended in the future with parameters
relevant to generator expression evaluation.
Remove the supporting cmGeneratorTarget::AddObject method. It is
no longer needed as the container member is populated directly.
The ComputeObjectMapping method is called whenever objects are
requested from the cmGeneratorTarget. Because the Xcode generator
makes no such request, explicitly invoke the method from that
generator so that the logic of checking for bad sources in object
libraries is executed.
In a follow-up, the UseObjectLibraries usage may be replaced by a
true generator expression evaluator for TARGET_OBJECTS. That
will require generators to use cmGeneratorTarget::GetExternalObjects
which is not currently the case for Xcode and VS generators.
These policies are triggered by the use of a particular compiler rather
than outdated CMake code in a project. Avoid warning in every project
that enables a language by not displaying the policy warning by default.
Add variable CMAKE_POLICY_WARNING_CMP<NNNN> to control the warning
explicitly; otherwise enable the warning with --debug-output or --trace.
This breaks with strict policy convention because it does not provide
developers with any warning about the behavior change by default.
Existing projects will continue to build without a warning or change in
behavior. When a developer changes the minimum required version of
CMake in a project to a sufficiently high value (3.0), the project will
suddenly get the new compiler id and may break, but at least the
breakage comes with a change to the project rather than the version of
CMake used to build it.
Breaking strict policy convention is worthwhile in this case because
very few projects will be affected by the behavior change but every
project would have to see the warning if it were enabled by default.
Implement it in terms of the ComputeObjectFilenames virtual method
on the local generators.
Remove the reimplementation from the global generators which are
now all functionally identical.
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.
Casts from std::string -> cmStdString were high on the list of things
taking up time. Avoid such implicit casts across function calls by just
using std::string everywhere.
The comment that the symbol name is too long is no longer relevant since
modern debuggers alias the templates anyways and the size is a
non-issue since the underlying methods are generated since it's
inherited.
Implement a Visitor to hold the sequence of source file tests
for populating outputs. Use VS 6 and 7 workaround from Brad
King for lack of partial template specialization and function
template specialization capabilities.
This will make it possible to use context dependent generator
expressions to determine the sources of a target.
In a follow-up, the list of sources will become dependent on
the config, so check for existence in cmTarget::GetSourceFiles
instead of up-front with cmGlobalGenerator::CheckTargets().
When using link_directories() and including CMAKE_CFG_INTDIR,
one can end up with duplicate RPATHs in the binary which
install_name_tool cannot fix without corrupting the binary.
Also, the cmake_install.cmake file has been fixed to correctly
handle these generator specific variables.
Introduce policy CMP0047 to control resetting the id for
compatibility.
De-duplicate content in the QNX platform file by including the GNU
one. QNX is a form of GNU platform.
Do not clear CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_${lang}_FLAGS variables. They
are populated again later by the Compiler/GNU.cmake file anyway.
Modify the CMAKE_CXX_COMPILE_OBJECT variable only when the QCC
compiler id is in use, and the language is CXX. Use the QNX
recommended flag for QCC instead of the gcc compatible -x flag.
Populate new module files to handle system includes and depfiles
when using the QCC compiler.
Remove code which unsets the system include and depfiles related
variables. When a GNU driver is used instead of the QCC one, the
appropriate flags will be used. These variables were previously
cleared for lowest-common-denominator compatibility with both
drivers.

Store cmExportBuildFileGenerator instances which correspond to the

pointers. This avoids the need to add cmExportBuildFileGenerator
and dependencies to the bootstrap system.
Direct users of IMPORTED targets treat INTERFACE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES
as SYSTEM, after commit a63fcbcb (Always consider includes from IMPORTED
targets to be SYSTEM., 2013-08-29). It was intended that transitive
use of an IMPORTED target would have the same behavior, but that
did not work. The implementation processed only direct dependencies
in cmTarget::FinalizeSystemIncludeDirectories.
Implement transitive evaluation of dependencies by traversing the
link interface of each target in the link implementation.
The parent commit changed the AutogensType::value_type to be
"std::pair<cmQtAutoGenerators,cmTarget const*>" but our std::make_pair
call returns "std::pair<cmQtAutoGenerators,cmTarget*>". Construct the
value_type directly instead of using make_pair. Otherwise the Sun 5.9
compiler complains
".../Source/cmGlobalGenerator.cxx", line 1281: Error:
Formal argument x of type "const std::pair<cmQtAutoGenerators, const cmTarget*>&"
in call to "std::vector<std::pair<cmQtAutoGenerators, const cmTarget*> >
::push_back(const std::pair<cmQtAutoGenerators, const cmTarget*>&)" is being
passed "std::pair<cmQtAutoGenerators, cmTarget*>".
As we're iterating over IMPORTED targets now, handle them in
the loop body. The existing behavior is harmless because generally
nothing is done anyway for IMPORTED targets in these code paths,
because they do not have sources for example.
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.

Teach add_custom_target to check the policy too. Extend the policy to
disallow reserved target names that we use for builtin targets like
"all".
Extend the RunCMake.CMP0037 test to cover these cases.
Code paths that look up CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM from the cache only to
pass it to Build, which only passes it to GenerateBuildCommand,
no longer need to do so. GenerateBuildCommand now knows how to
look up CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM in the cache when no explicit value
is given, so simply pass 0 now.
Add a cmGlobalGenerator::SelectMakeProgram method to select a
caller-provided make program, the CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM cache entry, or a
generator-provided default. Call it from all implementations of the
GenerateBuildCommand method with the corresponding generator's default,
if any.
All cmGlobalGenerator::GenerateBuildCommand call sites that need to
produce a string now generate "cmake --build" commands. The remaining
call sites immediately pass the result to cmSystemTools::RunSingleCommand.
Avoid the intermediate string and argument parsing by directly producing a
vector of strings. Also drop the ignoreErrors argument because no call
sites remain that use it.
Create a GenerateCMakeBuildCommand method to generate a command-line
string invoking "cmake --build" for a given target and configuration.
Optionally allow the "-i" make flag and additional native options.
This is a virtual method that is overridden by every generator
subclass. The base class implementation should never be called,
so replace it with a dummy implementation.
Refactor edit_cache tool selection to ask each global generator for its
preference. Teach the Ninja generator to always use cmake-gui because
Ninja by design cannot run interactive terminal dialogs like ccmake.
Teach the Makefile generator to use cmake-gui when also using an "extra"
generator whose IDE has no terminal to run ccmake, and otherwise fall
back to CMAKE_EDIT_COMMAND selection for normal Makefile build systems.

19a8a3c cmTarget: Don't finalize include directories in GetIncludeDirectories.
3305364 cmGlobalGenerator: Rename the FinalizeCompileDefinitions method.
Rename cmSystemTools::FindExecutableDirectory to FindCMakeResources.
Teach it to compute the locations of cmake, ctest, cpack, ccmake, and
cmake-gui executables, and the location of CMAKE_ROOT. Provide this
information from static cmSystemTools::Get<resource>() methods.
Refactor code that needs these locations to use the new APIs.
Teach FindCMakeResources to use the OS X system API to lookup the
executable location. When running from the CMake build tree itself,
leave a file in the tree that FindCMakeResources can use to read the
location of the source tree. This avoids the need to compile the source
tree location into a binary that may be installed and used without the
source tree.
Teach the QtDialog on OS X to create a "cmake-gui" symlink in the build
tree next to "cmake" and the other tools, as is already done in the
install tree for the application bundle. This ensures a consistent set
of executables are available in one directory.
This change causes the GetLinkInterfaceDependentStringProperty method,
called in SetupAutoGenerateTarget, after the creation of generator
targets. In CMake 4.0, the GetLinkInterfaceDependentStringProperty
will move to the cmGeneratorTarget class, and this patch is a necessary
prerequisite to that.
In commit 18412153 (Refactor cmTarget::GetCompileDefinitions...,
2013-06-06) cmQtAutomoc was refactored to get all compile definitions
from the target instead of separately asking the target and querying the
directory-level COMPILE_DEFINITIONS property value. While the
generation process does integrate directory-level COMPILE_DEFINITIONS
into the target definitions, this did not happen until after Automoc
targets are constructed. Therefore the commit regressed use of
directory-level definitions in Automoc targets.
Factor the definition finalization logic out from the
cmGlobalGenerator::CreateGeneratorTargets method into a new
cmGlobalGenerator::FinalizeTargetCompileDefinitions method and call it
before constructing Automoc targets. This will place the
directory-level definitions into the target in time to use them for the
Automoc targets.
Extend the QtAutomoc test to cover this case.
Factor member cleanup out from cmGlobalGenerator::Configure and the

3e04946 Require CMAKE_<LANG>_COMPILER to be found as a full path
6007f7c CMakeDetermineCompilerId: Always use compiler detected from IDE
332771c CMakeDetermine*Compiler: Remove temporary cache entry
All generators now support detection of the full path to the compiler, so
require it to be so. This will allow CMake<LANG>Information.cmake and
other logic to assume the full path to the compiler tool is available.
The Makefile generators already rejected CMAKE_<LANG>_COMPILER values
that did not name an existing compiler. Extend this error message to
all generators, make it occur as early as possible, and improve the
message with advice about how to set the compiler. If the full path to
the compiler is not known, finish enabling languages with a fatal error
so configuration does not continue.
For now, allow the RC language compiler to not be a full path. Later we
will need to detect the full path to "rc" under the VS IDE.
Add a RunCMake.CompilerNotFound test to cover failure cases.
Fix the RunCMake.CompilerChange test EmptyCompiler case to work
when configuration does not continue past enable_language.
The source files are already processed by cmQtAutomoc to look for
moc includes, so extend that to also look for ui_ includes and
find corresponding .ui files to process.
This replaces the need to invoke qt4_wrap_ui().
As the ui files are not likely to be part of the SOURCES of the
target, store the options associated with them separately in the
cmMakefile for querying during the autogen run.
Drop all behavior activated by setting CMAKE_BACKWARDS_COMPATIBILITY to
a value lower than 2.4, and generate an error when projects or the user
attempt to do so. In the error suggest using a CMake 2.8.x release.
Teach cmake_minimum_required to warn about projects that do not require
at least CMake 2.4. They are not supported by CMake >= 3.0.
Replace the documentation of CMAKE_BACKWARDS_COMPATIBILITY with a
reference to policy CMP0001.
Make the API for adding targets string based so that it can easily
use cmGeneratorTarget.
Teach the cmIncludeCommand to generate the exported file at
configure-time instead if it is to be include()d.
The RunCMake.ExportWithoutLanguage test now needs a dummy header.h
file as expected error from export() is now reported after the
missing file error.
1763c31 Set policy CMP0025 to NEW while building CMake itself
aa53ee5 Add policy CMP0025 for Apple Clang compiler id compatibility
ab65862 Clang: Add separate "AppleClang" compiler id
The parent commit introduced a separate "AppleClang" compiler id for
Apple's Clang distribution. Add a policy in order to support projects
that expect this compiler's id to be just "Clang". When the policy is
OLD or not set, map AppleClang back to Clang. Continue to use the
AppleClang id internally while enabling the language, but set the
CMAKE_<LANG>_COMPILER_ID after project() or enable_language() to the
compatible value for use by project code.
This target type only contains INTERFACE_* properties, so it can be
used as a structural node. The target-specific commands enforce
that they may only be used with the INTERFACE keyword when used
with INTERFACE_LIBRARY targets. The old-style target properties
matching LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES_<CONFIG> are always ignored for
this target type.
The name of the INTERFACE_LIBRARY must match a validity generator
expression. The validity is similar to that of an ALIAS target,
but with the additional restriction that it may not contain
double colons. Double colons will carry the meaning of IMPORTED
or ALIAS targets in CMake 2.8.13.
An ALIAS target may be created for an INTERFACE library.
At this point it can not be exported and does not appear in the
buildsystem and project files are not created for them. That may
be added as a feature in a later commit.
The generators need some changes to handle the INTERFACE_LIBRARY
targets returned by cmComputeLinkInterface::GetItems. The Ninja
generator does not use that API, so it doesn't require changes
related to that.
Convert the incoming value to a path in the same way that the
already-cached value was converted before comparison.
Do the actual comparison only one time, after both values are
normalized.
* The ALIAS name must match a validity regex.
* Executables and libraries may be aliased.
* An ALIAS acts immutable. It can not be used as the lhs
of target_link_libraries or other commands.
* An ALIAS can be used with add_custom_command, add_custom_target,
and add_test in the same way regular targets can.
* The target of an ALIAS can be retrieved with the ALIASED_TARGET
target property.
* An ALIAS does not appear in the generated buildsystem. It
is kept separate from cmMakefile::Targets for that reason.
* A target may have multiple aliases.
* An ALIAS target may not itself have an alias.
* An IMPORTED target may not have an alias.
* An ALIAS may not be exported or imported.

f1fcbe3 Add Target API to determine if an include is a system include.
2679a34 Remove unused variable.
Unlike other target properties, this does not have a corresponding
non-INTERFACE variant.
This allows propagation of system attribute on include directories
from link dependents.
d7dd010 Add target property debugging for COMPILE_DEFINITIONS
1841215 Refactor cmTarget::GetCompileDefinitions to use an out-vector, not a string.
afc9243 Add an overload of cmIDEOptions::AddDefines taking a vector of strings.
d95651e Overload cmLocalGenerator::AppendDefines to add a list.
Use constructs similar to those for COMPILE_OPTIONS. This is a little
different because there is a command to remove_definitions(), so
we can't populate the equivalent target property until generate-time
in cmGlobalGenerator.
When CMake reports failure to configure a project, especially when the
toolchain does not initialize properly, the true reason may be clear
from reading the CMakeFiles/CMake(Output|Error).log files. Advise users
to look at these files if they exist when configuration fails.
Add RunCMake.Configure test to check that the log files are mentioned
when configuration fails.
The idea is to write to a temp file which contains generator
expressions, and at generate time, evaluate the generator expressions,
and write the result to a file.
Because executables on Windows are limited in the length of command line
it is possible to use, it is common to write command line arguments to a
file instead and specify the file as a source of arguments.
This new FILE(GENERATE) subcommand allows the use of generator
expressions to create such files so that they can be used with
add_custom_command for example.
Extend the cmGlobalGenerator::GenerateBuildCommand virtual method
signature with a "projectDir" parameter specifying the top of the
project build tree for which the build command will be generated.
Populate it from call sites in cmGlobalGenerator::Build where a
fully-generated build tree should be available.
Commit 79568f95 (automoc: Add source file to target early to set the
linker language, 2013-02-20) changed automoc initialization to a two
step process. In the first step, the generated source file was added
to the target, which allows the link language to be determined.
However, this bypassed the check for the availability of Qt itself.
At build-time the automoc file could not be generated because the moc
tool was not available to create it.
The solution is to only add the automoc file to the target if Qt is
found.
Previously, GetIncludeDirectories was called before calling
target->AddSourceFile(mocCppSource). Since commit a1c4905f (Use the
link information as a source of compile definitions and
includes., 2013-02-12), the include directories are determined by
the link information.
Valid link information requires that the linker language can be
determined, which depends on the source files languages and the
dependent targets languages. In the case of the no_link_languages
target in the unit test, there are no dependencies and the additional
source file no_link_languages_automoc.cpp is added to the target
at generate-time. That file can be used to determine the linker
language, but it must be added to the target before calling
GetIncludeDirectories.
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.
6063fef Output include directories as LOG messages, not warnings.
aa66748 Specify the target whose includes are being listed.
d70204a Only output includes once after the start of 'generate-time' when debugging.
0d46e9a Store includes from the same include_directories call together.
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.
This makes
set(CMAKE_BUILD_INTERFACE_INCLUDES ON)
add the equivalent of
set_property(TARGET tgt APPEND PROPERTY
INTERFACE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES
$<BUILD_INTERFACE:${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR};${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}>
)
to every target.
If the headers are in CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR, and the generated headers
are in CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR, this is a convenient way to build a target
bar, which depends on foo, just by using target_link_libraries() and adding
the INTERFACE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES to the INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES of the target
being linked. There will be more-convenient porcelain API to consume the
property in the future.
Solution folders are supported as read-only in the VS11 Express
Edition, so do not prohibit their use just because we detect the
express edition (as we did in the VS10 generator).

Since commit ca39c5cd (Optionally allow IMPORTED targets to be globally
visible, 2012-01-25) cmGlobalGenerator has a second member that tracks
targets with global scope. We must initialize the new 'ImportedTargets'
member wherever the old 'TotalTargets' member is initialized. Without
this initialization the ImportedTargets member is left with dangling
pointers during a same-process re-configuration.
We're going to need to link to them, and all the linking API is moving
to cmGeneratorTarget.
Skip imported targets when iterating over cmGeneratorTargets in places
where we only want targets we build. The GetGeneratorTargets result now
includes IMPORTED targets where it didn't before. The GetTargets
result, which was what used to be called in these methods does not
include IMPORTED targets. This doesn't relate to any known bugs, but in
some future uses of GetGeneratorTargets it will be important, so
starting the convention and being deliberate now is a good idea.
This fixes a regression introduced in commit 290e92ad (Move
GetIncludeDirectories to cmGeneratorTarget, 2012-09-16) which loops over
cmGeneratorTargets before they get created, so the container is empty.

This way we don't need to check the definitions from the Makefile when
generating later, and can more easily add generator expressions.
Duplication is not a problem as the definitions are de-duplicated before
generating.
At the top of a build tree we configure inside the CMakeFiles directory
files such as "CMakeSystem.cmake" and "CMake<lang>Compiler.cmake" to
save information detected about the system and compilers in use. The
method of detection and the exact results store varies across CMake
versions as things improve. This leads to problems when loading files
configured by a different version of CMake. Previously we ignored such
existing files only if the major.minor part of the CMake version
component changed, and depended on the CMakeCache.txt to tell us the
last version of CMake that wrote the files. This led to problems if the
user deletes the CMakeCache.txt or we add required information to the
files in a patch-level release of CMake (still a "feature point" release
by modern CMake versioning convention).
Ensure that we always have version-consistent platform information files
by storing them in a subdirectory named with the CMake version. Every
version of CMake will do its own system and compiler identification
checks even when a build tree has already been configured by another
version of CMake. Stored results will not clobber those from other
versions of CMake which may be run again on the same tree in the future.
Loaded results will match what the system and language modules expect.
Rename the undocumented variable CMAKE_PLATFORM_ROOT_BIN to
CMAKE_PLATFORM_INFO_DIR to clarify its purpose. The new variable points
at the version-specific directory while the old variable did not.
When a language is not enabled at the top level of a project but is
enabled in multiple disjoint subdirectories we should re-use the
CMake<lang>Compiler.cmake file from the first directory. Load the file
whenever it exists and is not left from a different version of CMake.
bd34963 Refactor generation of shared library flags
55d7aa4 Add platform variable for flags specific to shared libraries
31d7a0f Add platform variables for position independent code flags
CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_<lang>_FLAGS has flags on various platforms for a
variety of purposes that are correlated with shared libraries but not
exclusive to them. Refactor generation of these flags to use new
purpose-specific platform variables
CMAKE_<lang>_COMPILE_OPTIONS_DLL
CMAKE_<lang>_COMPILE_OPTIONS_PIC
CMAKE_<lang>_COMPILE_OPTIONS_PIE
Activate the DLL flags specifically for shared libraries. Add a new
POSITION_INDEPENDENT_CODE target property to activate PIC/PIE flags, and
default to true for shared libraries to preserve default behavior.
Initialize the new property from CMAKE_POSITION_INDEPENDENT_CODE to
allow easy global configuration in projects.
Although the default behavior is unchanged by this refactoring, the new
approach ignores CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_<lang>_FLAGS completely. We must
leave it set in case projects reference the value. Furthermore, if a
project modifies CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_<lang>_FLAGS it expects the new
value to be used. Add policy CMP0018 to handle compatibility with
projects that modify this platform variable.
Add a PositionIndependentCode test on platforms where we can get
meaningful results.
Add cmGlobalGenerator::GenerateRuleFile to compute a generator-specific
rule file location. This will allow specific generators to override the
location of .rule files without changing the behavior of other
generators.
Rename cmGlobalGenerator::GetCMakeCFG{InitDirectory => IntDir} to
have a shorter name without a typo. Add a 'const' qualifier since
the method is only for lookup and never needs to modify anything.
Add a virtual cmGlobalGenerator::ComputeTargetObjects method invoked
during cmGeneratorTarget construction. Implement it in the Makefile
generator to pre-compute all object file names for each target. Use
the results during generation instead of re-computing it later.
Construct the instances after the final set of targets is known but
before computing inter-target dependencies. This order will allow
initialization of cmGeneratorTarget instances to adjust and finalize
declared inter-target dependencies.
Eliminate callers of cmMakefile::GetIncludeDirectories.
All callers of GetIncludeDirectories should go through the local generator
object.
Only the local generator calls cmTarget::GetIncludeDirectories directly.
Consider the case motivating commit e01cce28 (Allow add_dependencies()
on imported targets, 2010-11-19). An imported target references a file
generated at build time by a custom target on which it depends. Had the
file been built directly using add_library or add_executable its target
name would have been visible globally. Therefore the imported target
representing the file should be globally visible also.
Teach the IMPORTED signature of add_(executable|library) to accept a new
"GLOBAL" option to make the imported target visible globally.

During a try_compile cmGlobalGenerator::EnableLanguage uses results from
the outer project. Reject attempts to enable languages in the test
project that are not "ready" in the outer project. Mark a language as
"ready" when all its information has been loaded and we are ready to
generate build rules.
This also avoids infinite recursion introduced by commit 295b5b60 (Honor
CMAKE_USER_MAKE_RULES_OVERRIDE in try_compile, 2010-06-29) for projects
that set CMAKE_USER_MAKE_RULES_OVERRIDE to a file that uses try_compile.
The file is loaded along with the information for a given langauge so
the language is not yet "ready".

Visual Studio Express editions do not support solution folders,
so default behavior should be as if USE_FOLDERS global property
is OFF.
Also, allow folder names to be the same as target names: internally,
use a prefix to distinguish folder GUIDs from target GUIDs. Add
a target and folder with the same name in the ExternalProject
test to exercise this code.
For CMake itself, provide a new option CMAKE_USE_FOLDERS that
defaults to ON so that Visual Studio users get a nicely organized
CMake project. Express edition users will have to turn off the
CMAKE_USE_FOLDERS option in order to build CMake in the VS Express
IDE.
Since commit bc43b0f2 (Do not link library dependencies in VS solutions,
2009-10-20) CMake disables for VS >= 8 linking of a target to libraries
that happen to be listed as solution-level dependencies. Therefore we
can list the direct dependencies of each target in the solution file and
let VS handle transitive dependencies automatically.
This work was started from a patch by Thomas Schiffer.
Thanks, Thomas!
See the newly added documentation of the FOLDER target
property for details.
Also added global properties, USE_FOLDERS and
PREDEFINED_TARGETS_FOLDER. See new docs here, too.
By default, the FOLDER target property is used to organize
targets into folders in IDEs that have support for such
organization.
This commit adds "solution folder" support to the Visual
Studio generators. Currently works with versions 7 through
10.
Also, use the new FOLDER property in the ExternalProject
test and in the CMake project itself.

We store custom command rule hashes in CMakeFiles/CMakeRuleHashes.txt
persistently across CMake runs. When the rule hash changes we delete
the custom command output file and write a new hash into the persistence
file.
This functionality was first added by the commit 'Introduce "rule
hashes" to help rebuild files when rules change.' (2008-06-02).
However, the implementation in cmGlobalGenerator::CheckRuleHashes kept
the file open for read when attempting to rewrite a new file. On
Windows filesystems this prevented the new version of the file from
being written! This caused the first set of rule hashes to be used
forever within a build tree, meaning that all custom commands whose
rules changed would be rebuilt every time CMake regenerated the build
tree.
In this commit we address the problem by splitting the read and write
operations into separate methods. This ensures that the input stream is
closed before the output stream opens the file.
CMake has a special case for the "make install" target when building
CMake itself. We use the just-built CMake to install itself since an
existing CMake installation cannot replace itself (at least on Windows).
We simplify the code that computes the location of the CMake binary by
taking advantage of existing generator support for target lookup. This
will make it robust to any changes in CMake's own CMakeLists.txt files
in the future.
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 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.
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.
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.
This generalizes the previous CMakeFiles/LabelFiles.txt created at the
top of the build tree to a CMakeFiles/TargetDirectories.txt file. It
lists the target support directories for all targets in the project.
Labels can still be loaded by looking for Labels.txt files in each
target directory.
The second argument of add_subdirectory must name a unique binary
directory or the build files will clobber each other. This enforces
uniqueness with an error message.
This creates a new LABELS property for targets and source files. We
write the labels of each target and its source files in target-specific
locations in the build tree for future use.
During bootstrap we do not bother with rule hashing. This updates the
dummy implementation to account for the recent change in rule hash
method signatures.
This simplifies computation of custom command rule hashes to hash
content exactly chosen as the custom commands are generated.
Unfortunately this will change the hashes of existing build trees from
earlier CMake versions, but this is not a big deal. The change is
necessary so that in the future we can make optional adjustments to
custom command lines at generate time without changing the hashes every
time the option is changed.
Previously the cmGlobalGenerator::GetDirectoryContent method would work
safely only during build system generation. These changes make it safe
to use during each configure step by flushing it at the beginning.
When looking for NOTFOUND libraries, use the direct dependencies of a
target instead of all dependencies. At least one target will trigger
the NOTFOUND error anyway because at least one must directly link it.
This removes another use of the old-style link line computation.
After reporting an error about circular target dependencies do not try
to continue generation because the dependency computation object is not
in a useful state.
- The source-file signature of try_compile looks up the language
of the source file using the extension-to-language map so that
it knows what language to enable in the generated project.
- This map needs to be filled before loading a file specified by
CMAKE_USER_MAKE_RULES_OVERRIDE
CMAKE_USER_MAKE_RULES_OVERRIDE_<LANG>
so that the user file may call the try_compile() source-file
signature.
- It must still be re-filled after loading CMake<LANG>Information.cmake
in case the compiler- or platform-specific files added anything.
- See bug #7340.
ENH: -if no compiler has been found, don't test it, and also remove the compiler
information file again. This makes optionally enabling a language work
better.
Alex
- The rule hash should use only commands specified by the user.
- No make output (echo and progress) rules should be included.
- No outputs or dependencies need be included. The native build tool
will take care of them.
- In CMake 2.4 custom commands would not rebuild when rules changed.
- In CMake 2.6.0 custom commands have a dependency on build.make
which causes them to rebuild when changed, but also when any
source is added or removed. This is too often.
- We cannot have a per-rule file because Windows filesystems
do not deal well with lots of small files.
- Instead we add a persistent CMakeFiles/CMakeRuleHashes.txt file
at the top of the build tree that is updated during each
CMake Generate step. It records a hash of the build rule for
each file to be built. When the hash changes the file is
removed so that it will be rebuilt.
- 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.
- CMake 1.8 and below did not do the check but could get in
infinite loops due to the local generate step.
- CMake 2.0 added the check but failed to perform it in directories
with no targets (see bug #678).
- CMake 2.2 removed the local generate which fixed the problem but
did not remove the check.
- Between CMake 2.4 and 2.6.0rc6 the check was fixed to work even
when no targets appear in a directory (see bug #6923).
- Bottom line: the check is no longer needed.
- Cycles may be formed among static libraries
- Native build system should not have cycles in target deps
- Create cmComputeTargetDepends to analyze dependencies
- Identify conneced components and use them to fix deps
- Diagnose cycles containing non-STATIC targets
- Add debug mode property GLOBAL_DEPENDS_DEBUG_MODE
- Use results in cmGlobalGenerator as target direct depends
