We need to make sure we can export targets which have content such
as $<0:$<TARGET_PROPERTY:not_a_target,INTERFACE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES>
That means making not finding a target non-fatal here.
Explain in the documentation for the legacy signature
target_link_libraries(foo bar)
that the other signatures like
target_link_libraries(foo LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES ...)
target_link_libraries(foo LINK_PRIVATE ...)
will set the LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES target property and therefore make
libraries specified only by the legacy signature private.
These interface-related link-libraries properties are used to determine
the value of the other INTERFACE properties, so we were getting infinite
recursion and segfaults otherwise.

With similar reasoning to the parent commit, as downstreams, we can't
determine what $<CONFIG> generator expressions would be appropriate.
Upstream would have populated the INTERFACE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES with
config-specific generator expressions, possibly appropriate for
their DEBUG_CONFIGURATIONS. In theory, if we would add include
directories for a DEBUG intent, we would have to match the upstream
configurations for that.
Rather than attempting to discover the appropriate configurations
at this time, simplify the feature instead. The use of IMPORTED targets
with these commands could still be added in the future if targets
would export their DEBUG_CONFIGURATIONS somehow.
This reverts commit 9cfe4f1b76.
It turns out that correctly adding the content to
the IMPORTED_LINK_INTERFACE_LIBARIES_<CONFIG> of an upstream target
from the buildsystem of a downstream project is not simple.
If upstream had added the INTERFACE content, the config-specific
properties would be determined by the DEBUG_CONFIGURATIONS of
upstream.
As downstream, we don't have any information about what
the DEBUG_CONFIGURATIONS of upstream were, so we can't determine
which configuration-specific properties to populate. The best we can do
is add it to all of them or add it to the ones downstream considers to
be DEBUG_CONFIGURATIONS, neither of which is a good solution.
So, removing the porcelain API for that is the best approach. A human
can still determine which properties to populate and use
the set_property API to populate the desired properies.
Another solution to this would be for upstream targets to publish
what they consider DEBUG_CONFIGURATIONS, but that can be added in
a future release.
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.
Otherwise, we get a separate IncludeDirectoriesEntry for each include,
and that causes unnecessary and confusing splitting in the output when
debugging the INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES property.
The cache here needs to be cleared if GetLinkInformation is called
at configure-time, such as during an export().
The next commit does exactly that, and without this patch,
the LinkLanguage test would fail.
It is not necessary and the current state is unintentional. Before
this patch,
target_link_libraries(foo bar)
causes the LINK_LIBRARIES property of foo to contain
$<TARGET_NAME:bar>
instead of just
bar
This new expression allows checking how a policy was set when a target
was created. That information is only recorded for a subset of policies,
so a whitelist is used.

the code reading them.

expressions as arguments.

In the implementation of "cmake -E cmake_link_script", skip lines from
the input file that are empty or contain only whitespace. Do not try to
run a child with no command line.
The Config and IMPORTED_ variants may also contain generator
expressions.
If 'the implementation is the interface', then the result of
evaluating the expressions at generate time is used to populate
the IMPORTED_LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES property.
1) In the case of non-static libraries, this is fine because the
user still has the option to populate the LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES
with generator expressions if that is what is wanted.
2) In the case of static libraries, this prevents a footgun,
enforcing that the interface and the implementation are really
the same.
Otherwise, the LINK_LIBRARIES could contain a generator
expression which is evaluated with a different context at build
time, and when used as an imported target. That would mean that the
result of evaluating the INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES property for
a static library would not necessarily be the 'link implementation'.
For example:
add_library(libone STATIC libone.cpp)
add_library(libtwo STATIC libtwo.cpp)
add_library(libthree STATIC libthree.cpp)
target_link_libraries(libtwo
$<$<STREQUAL:$<TARGET_PROPERTY:TYPE>,STATIC_LIBRARY>:libone>)
target_link_libraries(libthree libtwo)
If the LINK_LIBRARIES content was simply copied to the
IMPORTED_LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES, then libthree links to libone, but
executables linking to libthree will not link to libone.
3) As the 'implementation is the interface' concept is to be
deprecated in the future anyway, this should be fine.
Now that we're processing a LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES string, it
can contain targets. Make sure they are extracted for
namespacing purposes.
This needs to be restricted to strings which can actually have
targets named in them. For example, this is not done for
INTERFACE_COMPILE_DEFINITIONS, because even if there is a target
named 'foo', the string 'foo' in that property means that '-Dfoo'
will be set when compiling.
