Historically these were both added for the Makefile and Visual Studio
generators, respectively. Later the VS generators started using the
CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM cache entry to find the IDE build tool, and the
CMAKE_BUILD_TOOL was simply set as an alias.
Fix the documentation to explain that CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM is the modern
variable and that CMAKE_BUILD_TOOL is the compatibility alias, not the
other way around. Replace uses of CMAKE_BUILD_TOOL with
CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM in CMake-provided modules. Nothing needs to lookup
CMAKE_BUILD_TOOL in the cache, so simply set it as a normal variable.
Some extra options are for "ctest --build-and-test" directly, and others
are values for "--build-options". Split these two roles out into two
separate variables and update existing uses.
Use "cmake --build" to drive the "install" target from the CMake build
tree itself. This avoids using the heavier "ctest --build-and-test"
just to run the native build tool to drive installation.
Run the bootstrap script through "cmake -P" instead of
"ctest --build-and-test" so that we do not need to abuse
the --build-makeprogram option of the latter.
Re-implement the build_command() command to use "cmake --build" instead
of generating a native build tool invocation directly. This command
will internally invoke the proper native build tool.
This avoids requiring cmGlobalGenerator::GenerateBuildCommand to produce
a string so that it can be later refactored to produce a vector with no
quoting or escaping. It will also allow us to later teach CMake to
delay the decision about which build tool to invoke until after the
project build system is generated to disk. For example, on Visual
Studio 10 and above the preferred command-line tool is MSBuild, but we
need to fall back to devenv if the .sln has Intel Fortran .vfproj files.
bf755c7 set: Add unit tests for set/unset PARENT_SCOPE
bc280f1 set: Fix handling of empty value with PARENT_SCOPE
20afbd5 set: Handle value-less PARENT_SCOPE explicitly
Since commit 7d47c693 (Drop compatibility with CMake < 2.4, 2013-10-08)
we no longer need to use the configure_file IMMEDIATE option to support
compatibility modes less than 2.0.
Allow ExternalData_URL_TEMPLATES to be empty if a value for
ExternalData_OBJECT_STORES is provided. Assume in this use case that
the object stores will already contain all needed objects. Extend the
Module.ExternalData test to cover this case (all objects in stores).
Extend the RunCMake.ExternalData test to cover the non-failure message
case when stores are provided without URL templates.
3bade75 Help: Parse Copyright.txt instead of using current year
2bbf6bd Copyright.txt: Add test to check year range
3ee67d0 Copyright.txt: Update year range to end in 2013
621ba1f cmake-gui: Parse Copyright.txt instead of duplicating notice
993b685 bootstrap: Parse Copyright.txt instead of duplicating notice
Add a CMake.Copyright test that, when the CMake version number knows the
year (as it does in development versions), checks that Copyright.txt has
been updated with the current version year.
Split the test cases covering spaces and colons into separate units.
Run the space cases everywhere. Disable the colon cases where they
are known to fail. This approach increases platform coverage for the
test and makes the known-failure logic as local as possible.
No Makefile generator on Windows can generate targets with ':'
in their name because the CMakeFiles/<target>.dir directory cannot
be created. Skip this part of the test on all Windows Make tools.
Commit 239b0c6b (Don't add invalid content to static lib
INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES., 2013-10-20) extended a test which
excercised the logic of the LINK_ONLY generator expression.
Commit ef10b87c (CMP0022: Plain target_link_libraries must populate
link interface, 2013-11-02) removed the instance of LINK_ONLY which
was excercised by that test.
Add a new test which excercises the other instance of LINK_ONLY by
setting the CMP0022 policy to NEW and consuming the contents of the
INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES target property.
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.

Resolve conflict in Source/cmTarget.cxx by integrating the changes to
the internal copy constructor from both sides. Also resolve a logical
conflict by dropping the special case for INTERFACE_LIBRARY targets.
Since cmTarget::SetMakefile already forces CMP0022 to NEW for such
targets we need no special handling.
Resolve conflict in Source/cmTargetLinkLibrariesCommand.h by dropping
the documentation change. We will make the same change in the new
location of the same documentation in a separate commit.
Resolve conflicts in
Tests/RunCMake/CMP0022/CMP0022-WARN-empty-old-stderr.txt
Tests/RunCMake/CMP0022/RunCMakeTest.cmake
by taking the side from the 'policy-CMP0022-fixes' branch.
Since cmTarget::ComputeLinkInterface is called separately for each
"head" target that links a target, the warning we produce when
CMP0022 is not set could be repeated. Add explicit logic to allow
the warning to appear at most once. Multiple copies of the warning
for the same target are almost always identical and therefore
redundant. In the rare case that two copies of the warning are
different, the second can appear in a future run after the first
is fixed.
When cmExportFileGenerator::SetImportLinkInterface exports the old
LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES property values it skips doing so for
non-linkable targets because target->GetLinkInterface returns NULL for
such targets.
Since cmExportFileGenerator::PopulateInterfaceLinkLibrariesProperty
looks at the INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES property directly instead of using
the computed link interface, teach it to skip exporting the property if
target->IsLinkable returns false.
Extend the RunCMake.CMP0022 test with a case covering this. Simply
export an executable target that links to a library that is not
exported.
The CMP0022 NEW behavior is that the INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES property
exactly defines the link interface. The plain target_link_libraries
signature says linking is transitive by default, so it should populate
the property.
Teach the target_link_libraries plain signature to populate the
INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES regardless of the CMP0022 setting. Refactor
the cmTarget::ComputeLinkInterface checks that warn when the policy is
not set to compare the new property to either the explicitly set old
link interface properties or the link implementation fallback for all
linkable target types, not just static libraries.
This fixes a regression in 2.8.12.0 that caused target_link_libraries to
not implement transitive linking in the plain signature once the policy
CMP0022 is set to NEW.
