As explained in cmVisualStudio10TargetGenerator::WriteSource comments,
VS tools append relative paths to the current directory, e.g.
c:\path\to\current\dir\..\..\..\relative\path\to\source.c
and fail if this is over 250 charaters or so. Previously we used a full
path only if no relative path could be constructed with a leading "../"
sequence that does not escape the source or build tree. This means that
long relative paths can be generated when the build tree is inside the
source tree, and can cause build failures due to the above path
concatenation problem.
Teach cmVisualStudio10TargetGenerator::ConvertPath to ask the Convert
method to honor CMAKE_USE_RELATIVE_PATHS. This will cause it to use
full paths by default but still give users the option of getting the
relative paths when possible.

Replace it by cmStandardIncludes.h which drags in the proper header depending

CMake/Source/cmExtraCodeLiteGenerator.cxx:27: sstream: No such file or directory
OpenBSD defines Elf64_Dyn::d_tag to be of an unsigned type, which differs from
what most other platforms do and what is the case for 32 bit. To have the tag
as unsigned makes sense, but this causes a compilation warning:
/.../CMake/Source/cmELF.cxx: In member function 'const cmELF::StringEntry* cmELFInternalImpl<Types>::GetDynamicSectionString(int) [with Types = cmELFTypes64]':
/.../CMake/Source/cmELF.cxx:945: instantiated from here
/.../CMake/Source/cmELF.cxx:668: warning: comparison between signed and unsigned integer expressions
Add an explicit typedef to cast the value to for 32 and 64 bit. That type is
unsigned and has the proper length for both platforms so no information is
lost. Explicitely cast both arguments before comparing them to avoid the
warning in all situations.
The matches have already been calculated and can simply be taken from
CMAKE_MATCH_n variables. This avoids multiple compilations of the same or very
similar regular expressions.
Since commit e5da9e51 (cmTarget: Allow any generator expression in
SOURCES property., 2014-03-18), source files are computed by
true evaluation of generator expressions, including TARGET_OBJECTS.
This evaluation requires the presence of cmGeneratorTarget objects
since commit bf98cc25 (Genex: Evaluate TARGET_OBJECTS as a normal
expression., 2014-02-26).
Ensure that we don't attempt to evaluate the TARGET_OBJECTS generator
expression at configure-time, as can happen if CMP0024 or CMP0026
are OLD. Use old-style parsing of the source item to extract
object target names in that case.
Avoid calling GetProperty("SOURCES") to bypass warnings from CMP0051.
Refactor existing logic in GetLanguages which is similar in intent to
the new GetSourceFiles code.
Allow directories in the source tree or build tree only if the
install tree is a subdirectory of the source tree or build tree,
as appropriate.
Re-use the test files in the RunCMake.include_directories test
to run in multiple scenarios. Bump the required CMake version
in the test to 3.0 to ensure that the new policy warnings are
emitted correctly.
The AddSource method accepts one file and tries to avoiding adding
it to the sources-list of the target if it already exists. This
involves creating many cmSourceFileLocation objects for matching
on existing files, which is an expensive operation.
Avoid the searching algorithm by appending the new sources as one
group. Generate-time processing of source files will ensure
uniqueness.
Add a new AddTracedSources for this purpose. The existing
AddSources method must process the input for policy CMP0049, but
as these source filenames come from cmSourceFile::GetFullPath(),
we can forego that extra processing.
Computing the language involves computing the source files, which
is an expensive operation. It requires calling
cmMakefile::GetOrCreateSource many times, which involves creating
and matching on many cmSourceFileLocation objects.
Source files of a target may depend on the head-target and the
config as of commit e6971df6 (cmTarget: Make the source files depend
on the config., 2014-02-13). The results are cached for each context
as of commit c5b26f3b (cmTarget: Cache the cmSourceFiles in
GetSourceFiles., 2014-04-05).
Each target in the build graph causes language computation of all
of its dependents with itself as the head-target. This means that
for 'core' libraries on which everything depends, the source files
are computed once for every transitive target-level-dependee and
the result is not cached because the head-target is different. This
was observed in the VTK buildsystem.
Short circuit the computation for targets which have a source-list
that is independent of the head-target. If the source-list has
already been computed and the generator expression evaluation
reports that it was context-independent, return the only source-list
already cached for the target. Reset the short-circuit logic when
sources are added and when the link libraries are re-computed.
Follow up commit 1de08685 (cmSystemTools: Restore unreachable return to
silence warnings, 2014-04-02) by excluding the unreachable return on the
HP compiler as well as Clang. Both recognize that it is unreachable and
warn.
Expect cxx_variadic_templates to implement N2555.
N2555 is essentially a bugfix and predates most compiler releases which
aimed to experimentally support variadic templates.
This can be used to set the compiler features required by particular
targets. An error is issued at CMake time if the compiler does not
support the required feature. If a language dialect flag is required
by the features used, that will be added automatically.
Base the target_compile_features command on cmTargetPropCommandBase. This
gives us 'free' handling of IMPORTED, ALIAS, INTERFACE, non-compilable
and missing targets.
Extend the interface of the target_compile_features command with
PUBLIC and INTERFACE keywords. Populate the INTERFACE_COMPILER_FEATURES
target property if they are set. Consume the INTERFACE_COMPILER_FEATURES
target property from linked dependent targets to determine the final
required compiler features and the compile flag, if needed.
Use the same pattern of origin-debugging which is used for other
build properties.
Record the availability of this feature for GNU 4.8 on (UNIX AND
NOT APPLE) only. In the future, availability can be recorded for
earlier GNU, for other platforms and for other compilers. Initially
the affected configurations are as restricted as possible to allow
for easy testing while extending the features vector in only one
dimension.
The error message when using the set_property API directly is not
very good, but follow up commits will provide origin debugging of
the property and a target_compile_features command which will
provide a configure-time backtrace when possible.
Use the contents of it to upgrade the CXX_STANDARD target property,
if appropriate. This will have the effect of adding the -std=c++11
compile flag or other language specification on GNU when that is
needed for the feature.

19b7c22d Ninja: Query custom commands once per target, not once per file.
This reverses the decision in commit d38423ec (cmTarget: Add a
method to obtain list of filenames for sources., 2014-03-17). The
cmSourceFile based API is preferred because that avoids creation of
many cmSourceFileLocation objects for matching strings, and the
result is cached by cmTarget.
Avoid calling GetSourceFiles with the same result container multiple
times when tracing target dependencies. The result from the previous
configuration is cached and used later otherwise.
Avoid calling AddSource for each src filename. That involves
checking each entry for uniqueness and creating a separate
generator expression for each one.
Instead, add a single entry for the list of sources. The source
files are passed through a uniqueness filter at generate-time, so
duplicates don't matter so much.
