Stephen Kelly 5771f81d91 cmTarget: Add GetTransitiveTargetClosure method.
Replace calls to GetLinkInformation with calls to a method to get only
the target closure, not the link languages etc.  The replaced calls
are used while evaluating generator expressions only.  This makes
transitive generator expression evaluation independent from
the languages of a target.  In a follow-up topic, it will be possible
to make the languages depend on generator expression evaluation, via
evaluation of the SOURCES and INTERFACE_SOURCES target properties.

Because the order of entries is not the same as the final link line,
the order of debug output is different in the RunCMake.CompatibleInterface
test, because the BOOL_PROP7 target property is evaluated first. Adjust
the test to account for that new order.

Stephen Kelly b8b99cc1e5 cmTarget: Avoid computing languages when computing transitive targets.
For the OLD CMP0022 behavior, we need to treat the implementation
as the interface when computing the interface libraries.  Make it
possible to do that without computing the link languages by adding
a new GetLinkImplementationLibraries method.  Extend the existing
GetLinkImplementation method to populate the languages if the
libraries have already been computed and cached.

Change GetTransitivePropertyTargets to invoke GetLinkInterfaceLibraries
instead of GetLinkInterface.  This is key, as it is a method called
by cmGeneratorExpressionEvaluator.

Change the cmGeneratorExpressionEvaluator to invoke
GetLinkImplementationLibraries instead of GetLinkImplementation.

Stephen Kelly d93e1af292 cmTarget: Extract a ComputeLinkInterfaceLibraries method.

location.

Rolf Eike Beer c768e398f9 cmMakefile: make some methods take const std::string& instead of const char*
Most callers already have a std::string, on which they called c_str() to pass it
into these methods, which internally converted it back to std::string. Pass a
std::string directly to these methods now, avoiding all these conversions.
Those methods that only pass in a const char* will get the conversion to
std::string now only once.

Stephen Kelly faedd2bea9 cmTarget: Fix system include annotation propagation.
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.

Stephen Kelly 01c545c596 cmTarget: Fix debug report for interface-set compatibility types.
If the dependent target sets the property to boolean false, ensure
that that appears in the debug report.  Previously, the report
output contained whether the property was consistent among dependencies,
displaying 'TRUE', instead of the content of the property, which may
be 'FALSE'.

Return a std::pair from the consistentProperty method.  This makes
it possible to make the return value for string types easier to
reason about.  The return value of consistentProperty was previously
set to an empty static string to emulate a 'true' value for the caller
in commit 816b4a8a (cmTarget: Make consistentProperty
return consistent content., 2013-10-22).  The pair makes the
consistency result properly typed.

Implement support for origin-tracking with CMAKE_DEBUG_TARGET_PROPERTIES.

This is motivated by the needs of KDE, which provides a separate
translation system based on gettext instead of the Qt linguist
translation system. The Qt uic tool provides command line options
for configuring the method used to translate text, and to add an
include directive to the generated file to provide the method.

 http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.kde.devel.frameworks/7930/focus=7992

Stephen Kelly 0bfcb450e6 INTERFACE_LIBRARY: Avoid codepaths which set unneeded properties.
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.

Brad King 0a561a0347 CMP0022: Warn about a given target at most once
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.

Brad King ef10b87cc1 CMP0022: Plain target_link_libraries must populate link interface
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.

Stephen Kelly 239b0c6b0e Don't add invalid content to static lib INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES.
Only valid target names or generator expressions may appear in
the target field of a LINK_ONLY expression.

Other content like link flags should still be added to that property
(wrapped in config-specific generator expressions), but not wrapped

The LINK_ONLY expression only has an effect for actual target

Stephen Kelly 84218e1870 Add automatic uic invocation for Qt.
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.

Stephen Kelly ff6c401309 cmTarget: Add interface for compatible numeric properties
When using the boost MPL library, one can set a define to increase
the limit of how many variadic elements should be supported. The
default for BOOST_MPL_LIMIT_VECTOR_SIZE is 20:

 http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_36_0/libs/mpl/doc/refmanual/limit-vector-size.html

If the foo library requires that to be set to 30, and the independent
bar library requires it to be set to 40, consumers of both need to set
it to 40.

 add_library(foo INTERFACE)
 set_property(TARGET foo PROPERTY INTERFACE_boost_mpl_vector_size 30)
 set_property(TARGET foo PROPERTY COMPATIBLE_INTERFACE_NUMBER_MAX boost_mpl_vector_size)
 target_compile_definitions(foo INTERFACE BOOST_MPL_LIMIT_VECTOR_SIZE=$<TARGET_PROPERTY:boost_mpl_vector_size>)

 add_library(bar INTERFACE)
 set_property(TARGET bar PROPERTY INTERFACE_boost_mpl_vector_size 40)
 # Technically the next two lines are redundant, but as foo and bar are
 # independent, they both set these interfaces.
 set_property(TARGET bar PROPERTY COMPATIBLE_INTERFACE_NUMBER_MAX boost_mpl_vector_size)
 target_compile_definitions(bar INTERFACE BOOST_MPL_LIMIT_VECTOR_SIZE=$<TARGET_PROPERTY:boost_mpl_vector_size>)

 add_executable(user)
 target_link_libraries(user foo bar)

Because the TARGET_PROPERTY reads the boost_mpl_vector_size property
from the HEAD of the dependency graph (the user target), and because
that property appears in the COMPATIBLE_INTERFACE_NUMBER_MAX of
the dependencies of the user target, the maximum value for it is
chosen for the compile definition, ie, 40.

There are also use-cases for choosing the minimum value of a number.
In Qt, deprecated API can be disabled by version. Setting the
definition QT_DISABLE_DEPRECATED_BEFORE=0 disables no deprecated
API. Setting it to 0x501000 disables API which was deprecated before
Qt 5.1 etc.

If two dependencies require the use of API which was deprecated in
different Qt versions, then COMPATIBLE_INTERFACE_NUMBER_MIN can be
used to ensure that both can compile.

Brad King 7d47c69365 Drop compatibility with CMake < 2.4
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.

Introduce a policy to control the behavior.

The AliasTargets unit test already tests that using a

test to use a namespace with a double-semicolon too.

2013-10-21 09:48:04 -04:00
Stephen Kelly b04f3b9a2a Create make rules for INTERFACE_LIBRARY targets.
The result is that the depends of the target are created.

So,

 add_library(somelib foo.cpp)
 add_library(anotherlib EXCLUDE_FROM_ALL foo.cpp)
 add_library(extra EXCLUDE_FROM_ALL foo.cpp)
 target_link_libraries(anotherlib extra)

 add_library(iface INTERFACE)
 target_link_libraries(iface INTERFACE anotherlib)

Executing 'make iface' will result in the anotherlib and extra targets
being made.

Adding a regular executable to the INTERFACE of an INTERFACE_LIBRARY
will not result in the executable being built with 'make iface' because
of the logic in cmComputeTargetDepends::AddTargetDepend.

So far, this is implemented only for the Makefile generator. Other
generators will follow if this feature is possible for them.

Make INTERFACE_LIBRARY targets part of the all target by default.
Test this by building the all target and making the expected library
EXCLUDE_FROM_ALL.

Stephen Kelly e4e5b28c27 cmTarget: Deprecate the LOCATION target property with a policy.
The final location and name of a build-target is not determined
until generate-time. However, reading the LOCATION property from
a target is currently allowed at configure time. Apart from creating
possibly-erroneous results, this has an impact on the implementation
of cmake itself, and prevents some major cleanups from being made.

Disallow reading LOCATION from build-targets with a policy. Port some
existing uses of it in CMake itself to use the TARGET_FILE generator
expression.
