With the Makefile generator one can use `cd $subdir; make install` to build and
install targets associated with a given subdirectory. This is not possible to
do with the Ninja generator since there is only one `build.ninja` file at the
top of the build tree. However, we can approximate it by allowing one to run
`ninja $subdir/install` at the top of the tree to build the targets in the
corresponding subdirectory and install them.
This also makes sense for `test`, `package`, and other GLOBAL_TARGET targets.
It was already done for `all` by commit v3.6.0-rc1~240^2~2 (Ninja: Add
`$subdir/all` targets, 2016-03-11).

Teach Visual Studio generators to include object files from object
libraries in the list of objects whose symbols are to be exported.
The Makefile and Ninja generators already did this. Update the
test to cover this case.

Custom command dependencies are followed for each target's source files
and add their transitive closure to the corresponding target. This
means that when a custom command in one target has a dependency on a
custom command in another target, both will appear in the dependent
target's sources. For the Makefile, VS IDE, and Xcode generators this
is not a problem because each target gets its own independent build
system that is evaluated in target dependency order. By the time the
dependent target is built the custom command that belongs to one of its
dependencies will already have been brought up to date.
For the Ninja generator we need to generate a monolithic build system
covering all targets so we can have only one copy of a custom command.
This means that we need to reconcile the target-level ordering
dependencies from its appearance in multiple targets to include only the
least-dependent common set. This is done by computing the set
intersection of the dependencies of all the targets containing a custom
command. However, we previously included only the direct dependencies
so any target-level dependency not directly added to all targets into
which a custom command propagates was discarded.
Fix this by computing the transitive closure of dependencies for each
target and then intersecting those sets. That will get the common set
of dependencies. Also add a test to cover a case in which the
incorrectly dropped target ordering dependencies would fail.
Document these variables.
Change our convention for setting these variables from:
set(CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS_INIT "...")
to
string(APPEND CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS_INIT " ...")
so that any value previously set by a toolchain file will be used.

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.
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.
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.
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.
Add a `CMAKE_TRY_COMPILE_PLATFORM_VARIABLES` variable to specify a list
of custom variables to be forwarded to a `try_compile` test project.
This will be useful for platform information modules or toolchain files
to forward some platform-specific set of variables from the host project
(perhaps set in its cache) to the test project so that it can build the
same way.
This patch preserves backward compatibility of
deb package names with previous CMake versions
but similarly to CPack/RPM allows to change
package name format and supports DEB-DEFAULT
setting that produces proper Debian package names.

Even though the `file(GLOB)` documentation specifically warns against
using it to collect a list of source files, projects often do it anyway.
Since it uses `readdir()`, the list of files will be unsorted.
This list is often passed directly to add_executable / add_library.
Linking binaries with an unsorted list will make it unreproducible,
which means that the produced binary will differ depending on the
unpredictable `readdir()` order.
To solve those reproducibility issues in a lot of programs (which don't
explicitly `list(SORT)` the list manually), sort the resulting list of
the `file(GLOB)` command.
A more detailed rationale about reproducible builds is available
[here](https://reproducible-builds.org/).
Add a `CMAKE_NINJA_OUTPUT_PATH_PREFIX` variable. When it is set, CMake
generates a `build.ninja` file suitable for embedding into another ninja
project potentially generated by an alien generator.

Packagers may now set their own rpm package
file names or request that rpmbuild tool
chooses one for them. It also supports handing
of situations where one spec file may produce
multiple rpm packages.
