If no compiler feature information is known for a given compiler
version, do not set a language standard default either. The two
settings must be recorded consistently.
As this is not elseif(), the content has no effect.
Rather than changing it to an elseif(), remove the conditional content.
All versions of GNU prior to 5.0 default to C90/89.
Clang-C.cmake has a similar code block which correctly uses
elseif() for setting the default C dialect to C99. That may have
been updated from a C90 default at some point, so leave the
version condition there in place for now.
GNU-CXX already has complex logic and sets the _result to 0 before
tests which may set it to something else.
Change the other modules to be consistent with that.
Clang 3.4 uses C99 by default, and Clang 3.6 uses C11 by default:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.compilers.clang.devel/39379
GNU 4.9 uses C90 by default, and GNU 5.0 uses C11 by default:
https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-5/changes.html
Test that the default compiler settings result in the expected dialect
macros being defined for both C and CXX. Remove the unused main.c
file from the CompileFeatures unit test.
Add properties and variables corresponding to CXX equivalents.
Add features for c_function_prototypes (C90), c_restrict (C99),
c_variadic_macros (C99) and c_static_assert (C11). This feature
set can be extended later.
Add a <PREFIX>_RESTRICT symbol define to WriteCompilerDetectionHeader
to conditionally represent the c_restrict feature.
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.
This teaches CMake to detect implicit link information for C, C++, and
Fortran compilers. We detect the implicit linker search directories and
implicit linker options for UNIX-like environments using verbose output
from compiler front-ends. We store results in new variables called
CMAKE_<LANG>_IMPLICIT_LINK_LIBRARIES
CMAKE_<LANG>_IMPLICIT_LINK_DIRECTORIES
The implicit libraries can contain linker flags as well as library
names.
