Document these variables.
Change our convention for setting these variables from:
set(CMAKE_C_FLAGS_INIT "...")
to
string(APPEND CMAKE_C_FLAGS_INIT " ...")
so that any value previously set by a toolchain file will be used.
Automate the conversion with:
sed -i 's/set *(\(CMAKE_\(C\|CXX\|Fortran\|RC\|ASM\|${[^}]\+}\)_FLAGS\(_[^_]\+\)\?_INIT \+"\)/string(APPEND \1 /' \
Modules/Compiler/*.cmake Modules/Platform/*.cmake
and follow up with some manual fixes (e.g. to cases that already
meant to append). Also revert the automated changes to contexts
that are not protected from running multiple times.
In the `try_compile` source file signature we propagate the caller's
value of `CMAKE_<LANG>_FLAGS` into the test project. Extend this to
propagate `CMAKE_<LANG>_FLAGS_<CONFIG>` too instead of always using the
default value in the test project. This will be useful, for example, to
allow the MSVC runtime library to be changed (e.g. `-MDd` => `-MTd`).
However, some projects may currently depend on this not being done,
so we need to activate the behavior using a policy.
This change was originally made by commit v3.6.0-rc1~160^2 (try_compile:
Honor CMAKE_<LANG>_FLAGS_<CONFIG> changes, 2016-04-11) but without the
policy and so had to be reverted during the 3.6 release candidate cycle.
Fixes#16174.
Revert commit v3.6.0-rc1~160^2 (try_compile: Honor
CMAKE_<LANG>_FLAGS_<CONFIG> changes, 2016-04-11). The behavior it
introduced can break projects that depend on the lack of such behavior.
We will have to introduce a policy or other mechanism to enable the
behavior in a compatible way. Simply revert it for now.
See issue #16174.
In commit v3.6.0-rc1~174^2 (Ninja: Honor CMAKE_NINJA_FORCE_RESPONSE_FILE
for compile rules, 2016-04-06), Ninja learned to look for
`CMAKE_NINJA_FORCE_RESPONSE_FILE` in the current scope or the
environment in order to force response file usage for all compilation
rules.
However, on Windows, the RC compiler goes through cmcldeps which does a
`replace(output, output + ".dep.obj")` on the command line. However,
with a response file (which we name `output + ".rsp"`), the response
file path is replaced instead causing the compiler to (correctly)
complain that the response file `output + ".dep.obj.rsp"` does not
exist.
What needs to happen is for cmcldeps to look through the response file,
replace *its* contents and place it in the `output + ".dep.obj.rsp"`
file.
Also add a test which actually compiles an RC file into a library and
executable for all generators on Windows and additionally test
`CMAKE_NINJA_FORCE_RESPONSE_FILE` for Ninja generators.
Fixes#16167.
This property allow to specify a specific Visual Studio tool for a
source file overriding the default tool behavior. For example, a
`.resw` file being processed as a `PriResource` file. This has the
advantage of being able to teach CMake to process new file types without
code modifications.
Even in relatively small projects using `--trace` (and `--trace-expand`)
may produce a lot of output. When developing a custom module usually
one is interested in output of only a few particular modules.
Add a `--trace-source=<file>` option to enable tracing only a subset of
source files. The final output would be only from requested modules,
ignoring anything else not matched to given filename(s).
Create a LINK_WHAT_YOU_USE target property and corresponding
CMAKE_LINK_WHAT_YOU_USE variable to enable this behavior.
Extend link commands by running `ldd -u -r` to detect shared
libraries that are linked but not needed.

The makefile is only used when called by the cmMessageCommand, so inline
the use of it there. It otherwise creates an undesirable dependency on
cmMakefile for issuing messages in the cmake instance, a violation of
the Interface Segregation Principle.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interface_segregation_principle
This also makes it more explicit that the variable definitions only
affect the message() command. If an AUTHOR_WARNING is issued for any
other reason, it is not affected. To affect that, it is necessary to
set the cache variable instead of the regular variable.
This is an unfortunate interface quirk, but one which can't be fixed
easily now.
Rename memtester.cxx.in to memtester.cxx, run clang-format, then restore
the original name. Fix the @_retval@ placeholder that was broken by
clang-format.
Add a ``FIND_LIBRARY_USE_LIB32_PATHS`` global property analogous to the
``FIND_LIBRARY_USE_LIB64_PATHS`` property. This helps find commands on
multilib systems that use ``lib32`` directories and either do not have
``lib`` symlinks or point ``lib`` to ``lib64``.

After finding it in `foo.Framework/Headers/dir/header.h`, we should
report the `foo.Framework/Headers` directory, not
`foo.Framework/Headers/dir`, because the former is what actually
contains the path the caller wishes to include.
Add a unit test to test the new functions to export JAR targets. The
test builds three sub-projects: two that generate and export a JAR (one
does a build-directory-only export, one an install-only export), and a
third that consumes the first two as imported targets.

Policy CMP0026 deprecated the LOCATION property, and we have long
provided a $<TARGET_FILE:...> generator expression. However, if
a project tries to use $<TARGET_PROPERTY:...,LOCATION> we should
at least not crash.
The compatibility implementation of the LOCATION property uses
cmGlobalGenerator::CreateGenerationObjects to create the structures
needed to evaluate the property before generation starts. The
implementation assumed that accessing the property could only be done
during configuration (via the typical get_property command use case).
The $<TARGET_PROPERTY:...,LOCATION> genex causes the LOCATION property
to be accessed during generation. Calling CreateGenerationObjects
during generation blows away all the objects currently being used for
generation and is not safe. Add a condition to call it only when
configuration is not finished.
