Brad King 7abd574798 cmake: Add '-E env' command-line tool
Extend the cmake command-line interface to support

 cmake -E env [--unset=NAME]... [NAME=VALUE]... COMMAND [ARG]...

This will be useful to run processes with modified environments
without using a shell or a full "cmake -P" script to wrap it.

Extend the RunCMake.CommandLine test to cover success and failure cases.

Stephen Kelly bc950169c7 WCDH: Remove noise from generated defines.
The DECL part is redundant, and the language part is not needed. The
source language and context already determines the language, so there
is no need to repeat it in the define name.

COMPILE_FEATURES in the link implementation is not lower than that
provided by the INTERFACE of the link implementation.  This is

Brad King a41c0a9dcb Do not warn by default when policy CMP0025 or CMP0047 is not set
These policies are triggered by the use of a particular compiler rather
than outdated CMake code in a project.  Avoid warning in every project
that enables a language by not displaying the policy warning by default.
Add variable CMAKE_POLICY_WARNING_CMP<NNNN> to control the warning
explicitly; otherwise enable the warning with --debug-output or --trace.

This breaks with strict policy convention because it does not provide
developers with any warning about the behavior change by default.
Existing projects will continue to build without a warning or change in
behavior.  When a developer changes the minimum required version of
CMake in a project to a sufficiently high value (3.0), the project will
suddenly get the new compiler id and may break, but at least the
breakage comes with a change to the project rather than the version of
CMake used to build it.

Breaking strict policy convention is worthwhile in this case because
very few projects will be affected by the behavior change but every
project would have to see the warning if it were enabled by default.

Since commit v2.8.12~437^2~2 (VS: Separate compiler and linker PDB files
2013-04-05) we no longer set /Fd with the PDB_NAME or PDB_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY
properties.  Those properties now exclusively handle linker PDB files.
Since STATIC libraries do not link their compiler PDB file becomes more
important.  Add new target properties "COMPILE_PDB_NAME[_<CONFIG>]" and
"COMPILE_PDB_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY[_<CONFIG>]" to specify the compiler PDB
file location and pass the value to the MSVC /Fd option.

Brad King 7e142c5ac2 project: Manage VERSION variables
Teach the project() command to set variables

  {PROJECT,<PROJECT-NAME>}_VERSION{,_MAJOR,_MINOR,_PATCH,_TWEAK}

holding the project version number and its components.  Add project()
command option "VERSION" to specify the version explicitly, and default
to the empty string when it is not given.

Since this clears variables when no VERSION is given, this may change
behavior for existing projects that set the version variables themselves
prior to calling project().  Add policy CMP0048 for compatibility.

Introduce policy CMP0047 to control resetting the id for
compatibility.

De-duplicate content in the QNX platform file by including the GNU
one. QNX is a form of GNU platform.

Do not clear CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_${lang}_FLAGS variables.  They
are populated again later by the Compiler/GNU.cmake file anyway.

Modify the CMAKE_CXX_COMPILE_OBJECT variable only when the QCC
compiler id is in use, and the language is CXX.  Use the QNX
recommended flag for QCC instead of the gcc compatible -x flag.

Populate new module files to handle system includes and depfiles
when using the QCC compiler.

Remove code which unsets the system include and depfiles related
variables.  When a GNU driver is used instead of the QCC one, the
appropriate flags will be used.  These variables were previously
cleared for lowest-common-denominator compatibility with both
drivers.

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.

Stephen Kelly 7521da2852 Introduce CMAKE_STAGING_PREFIX variable.
This variable can be useful in cross-compiling contexts where the
sysroot is read-only or where the sysroot should otherwise remain
pristine.

If the new CMAKE_STAGING_PREFIX variable is set, it is used instead
of CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX when generating the installation rules in
cmake_install.cmake.

This way, the CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX variable
always refers to the installation prefix on the target device, regardless
of whether host==target.

If any -rpath paths passed to the linker contain the CMAKE_STAGING_PREFIX,
the matching path fragments are replaced with the CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX.
Matching paths in the -rpath-link are not transformed.

The cross-prefix usr-move workaround is assumed not to require extension
regarding CMAKE_STAGING_PREFIX. The staging area is a single prefix, so
there is no scope for cross-prefix symlinks. The CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX
is still used to determine the workaround path, and that variable
remains the relevant one even if CMAKE_STAGING_PREFIX is used. If the
generated export files are deployed to the target, the workaround
will still be in place, and still be employed if required.

Stephen Kelly 7cd65c97fa Add CMAKE_SYSROOT variable to set --sysroot when cross compiling.
As CMAKE_ROOT_FIND_PATH can be a list, a new CMAKE_SYSROOT is
introduced, which is never a list.

The contents of this variable is passed to supporting compilers
as --sysroot. It is also accounted for when processing implicit
link directories reported by the compiler, and when generating
RPATH information.
2013-11-19 12:39:39 -05:00
Stephen Kelly 5096967ecd Allow toolchain files to specify an external toolchain.
Clang can compile code, but uses the gcc tools for other tasks such
as linking. The -gcc-toolchain option can be used for that, but
generalize so that other compilers can be treated the same.

If such a location is specified, use it as a hint for finding
the binutils executables.
2013-11-19 12:39:34 -05:00
Stephen Kelly 76552d595d Add compiler target compile options.
For clang, this allows passing -target <triple> to the compiler, and
for qcc, -V<arch> using toolchain files containing something like

 set(triple arm-linux-gnueabihf)
 set(CMAKE_C_COMPILER "/usr/bin/clang")
 set(CMAKE_C_COMPILER_TARGET ${triple})
 set(CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER "/usr/bin/clang++")
 set(CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER_TARGET ${triple})

or

 set(arch gcc_ntoarmv7le)
 set(CMAKE_C_COMPILER /opt/qnx650/host/linux/x86/usr/bin/qcc)
 set(CMAKE_C_COMPILER_TARGET ${arch})
 set(CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER /opt/qnx650/host/linux/x86/usr/bin/QCC)
 set(CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER_TARGET ${arch})

Both clang and qcc are inherently cross compiler( driver)s.

When cross-compiling with clang, use the CMAKE_${lang}_COMPILER_TARGET
as the _CMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_PREFIX to find the appropriate binutils.

When cross-compiling with QNX qcc, use the CMAKE_${lang}_COMPILER_TARGET
to set the appropriate _CMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_PREFIX.

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.
