Extend the signature
try_compile(RESULT_VAR <bindir> <srcfile> ...)
to allow multiple sources as
try_compile(RESULT_VAR <bindir> SOURCES <srcfile>... ...)
Process the sources to generate a CMakeLists.txt that enables all needed
languages.
Teach the TryCompile test to try cases with two sources of the same
language and of mixed languages. Teach RunCMake.try_compile to cover
error cases for the signature.
Imported targets are re-exported so that they can be used by the
try_compile generated code with target_link_libraries.
This makes the use of the cmake_expand_imported_targets macro
obsolete. The macro is not able to expand the generator expressions
which may appear in the IMPORTED_LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES content.
Instead it just sees them as 'not a target'.
Explicitly state up front that the source-file form of the command links
an executable and expects a 'main' to be defined. While at it, update
the command signature documentation to use a syntax more consistent with
other commands. Also tweak some wording.
This converts the CMake license to a pure 3-clause OSI-approved BSD
License. We drop the previous license clause requiring modified
versions to be plainly marked. We also update the CMake copyright to
cover the full development time range.
STYLE: create a new base class cmCoreTryCompile, from which
cmTryCompileCommand and cmTryRunCommand are derived, so there are no public
static functions with lots of arguments anymore
