Make wording of the directory and target properties more consitent
and complementary. Specify that the value is a ";-list" with a link
to the cmake-language(7) manual section on lists.
Explain that it affects only targets added after the call. Fix the link
to the COMPILE_OPTIONS directory propert documentation. Update the
latter to explain that it is used to initialize the corresponding target
property when a target is created.
Document the COMPILE_DEFINITIONS_<Config> properties as deprecated.
Add new sections for deprecated properties and move POST_INSTALL_SCRIPT
and PRE_INSTALL_SCRIPT there as well.
Define a new 'CMAKE_CONFIGURE_DEPENDS' directory property that projects
can use to specify input files to the CMake configuration process.
Extend the RunCMake.Configure test to verify that the build system
re-runs CMake when this input changes.
Generator expressions are supported in many places and are a distinct
concept worthy of their own manual page. The old builtin documentation
was previously represented by preprocessor macros to generate it into
each place that supports them. Factor out the duplicate content into a
dedicated cmake-generator-expressions manual page and reference it from
each original location.
The COMPILE_DEFINITIONS escaping disclaimer was represented in builtin
documentation using a preprocessor macro. Factor the duplicate content
out into a separate .txt file and include it in each document with the
reStructuredText include directive.
