This is initialized by CMAKE_<LANG>_VISIBILITY_PRESET. The target
property is used as the operand to the -fvisibility= compile option
with GNU compilers and clang.
Previously, it was inconsistent in that some platforms/compilers
had this flag for the RelWithDebInfo configuration and some didn't.
This fixes issue #11366.
Ancient versions of CMake required else(), endif(), and similar block
termination commands to have arguments matching the command starting the
block. This is no longer the preferred style.
Run the following shell code:
for c in else endif endforeach endfunction endmacro endwhile; do
echo 's/\b'"$c"'\(\s*\)(.\+)/'"$c"'\1()/'
done >convert.sed &&
git ls-files -z -- bootstrap '*.cmake' '*.cmake.in' '*CMakeLists.txt' |
egrep -z -v '^(Utilities/cm|Source/kwsys/)' |
egrep -z -v 'Tests/CMakeTests/While-Endwhile-' |
xargs -0 sed -i -f convert.sed &&
rm convert.sed
Store in new platform variables
CMAKE_${lang}_COMPILE_OPTIONS_PIC
CMAKE_${lang}_COMPILE_OPTIONS_PIE
flags for position independent code generation.
In almost all cases, this means duplication of the
CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_${lang}_FLAGS for the _PIC case and using the
assumed pie equivalent for the _PIE case. Note that the GNU compiler
has supported -fPIE since 3.4 and that there is no -fPIC on GNU for
Windows or Cygwin.
There is a possibility that the _PIE variables are not correct.
However, as there is no backwards compatibility to be concerned about
(as the POSITION_INDEPENDENT_CODE property is not used anywhere yet),
the current state suffices.
Patch by Amine Khaldi!
Also, start using the -MT flag to set a target name for depfiles.
This works around a bug observed in distcc, as explained in the
comment. Based on a patch by Alexander Usov.
Causes compiler modules (currently only GNU) to set a
CMAKE_DEPFILE_FLAGS_${lang} variable, which communicates to
the generator the flags required to cause the compiler to create
dependency files.
Fix typo introduced by commit e28c16b4 (Split GNU compiler information
files, 2009-12-02).

This moves GNU compiler flags into new-style modules
Compiler/GNU-<lang>.cmake
Platform/<os>-GNU-<lang>.cmake
We use language-independent helper modules
Compiler/GNU.cmake
Platform/<os>-GNU.cmake
to define macros consolidating the information.
