This is both a short form of using a TARGET_DEFINED expression
together with a TARGET_PROPERTY definition, and a way to strip
non-target content from interface properties when exporting.
Projects set interface requirements upstream, and existing
downstreams use of target_link_libraries will consume those interfaces.
This can create a backward compatibility concern as the result may
be changing the order of include directories of downstreams, or another
side-effect of using the INTERFACE properties.
Provide a way for them to emulate the behavior of a version-based
policy in the config file.
Both commit 8a37ebec (Add the target_include_directories command,
2013-01-01) and commit fc61a7a7 (Add the target_compile_definitions
command, 2013-01-08) added command implementations deriving from the new
cmTargetPropCommandBase class. Fix cmTypeMacro declarations of the
inheritance relationship.
The test added by commit e378ba5f (Add CTestLimitDashJ test, 2012-12-26)
crashes with CTest compiled by Borland 5.8. There seems to be interaction
among the large number of internal ctest runs. It is probably related to
the undiscovered underlying issue mentioned in commit 32478069 (CTest:
Prevent creation of unbounded number of tests in ctest, 2012-12-18) when
fixing the symptom covered by the CTestLimitDashJ test.
Add --force-new-ctest-process to avoid the crash. Further investigation
will still be needed to identify the true problem.
Use private global variables _ExternalData_REGEX_(ALGO|EXT) to match the
possible hash algorithm names and extensions in regular expressions.
Use "file(<algo>)" instead of "cmake -E md5sum" to compute hashes
without a child process and to support more hash algorithms.
Use a trailing slash to reference a directory. Require that a list
of associated files be specified to select from within the directory.
One may simply use DATA{Dir/,REGEX:.*} to reference all files but
get a directory passed on the command line.
Refactor use of the ExternalData_SERIES_MATCH value to avoid assuming
that it has no ()-groups that interfere with group indexing.
Extend the Module.ExternalData test to cover this case.
Add a Module.ExternalData test to verify data retrieval and test
argument DATA{} references.
Add a RunCMake.ExternalData test to verify error handling and automatic
transformation of a raw data to a content link and staged object.
7bf490e Make subclasses responsible for joining content.
f6b16d4 Don't allow targets args in the new target commands.
b3a7e19 Make the Property name protected so that subclasses can use it.
Automatic series recognition can generate false positives too easily
when the default series configuration is flexible enough to handle
common cases. Avoid false positives by requiring an explicit syntax to
activate series recognition. Choose the syntax DATA{<name>,:} to be
short, simple, and look like a vertical ellipsis.
This allows us to improve the default series match configuration. Allow
series references to contain one of the numbered file names. Allow '-'
as a separator in addition to '.' and '_'. Document what the default
configuration matches. Also provide more options to configure series
<name> parsing.
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.
Before this, when creating GTK2_LIBRARIES, FindGTK2 added the GTK
dependencies in wrong order into GTK2_LIBRARIES. With dynamic libraries
this is not a major problem, but when linking to static gtk libraries,
the linker outputs a lot of undefined symbols. Reorder the calls that
append libraries to GTK2_LIBRARIES to respect dependency order.
