This target type only contains INTERFACE_* properties, so it can be
used as a structural node. The target-specific commands enforce
that they may only be used with the INTERFACE keyword when used
with INTERFACE_LIBRARY targets. The old-style target properties
matching LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES_<CONFIG> are always ignored for
this target type.
The name of the INTERFACE_LIBRARY must match a validity generator
expression. The validity is similar to that of an ALIAS target,
but with the additional restriction that it may not contain
double colons. Double colons will carry the meaning of IMPORTED
or ALIAS targets in CMake 2.8.13.
An ALIAS target may be created for an INTERFACE library.
At this point it can not be exported and does not appear in the
buildsystem and project files are not created for them. That may
be added as a feature in a later commit.
The generators need some changes to handle the INTERFACE_LIBRARY
targets returned by cmComputeLinkInterface::GetItems. The Ninja
generator does not use that API, so it doesn't require changes
related to that.
Re-insert the semicolon which was removed during splitting.
Commit d777b8e7 (Genex: Allow relative paths in INSTALL_INTERFACE.,
2013-07-25) introduced the prefixItems method to allow relative paths
in the argument of the INSTALL_INTERFACE expression. That method was
buggy in that it did not re-introduce the semicolon separator in
the result.
This bug also affects paths which are already absolute in user code.
Xcode 2.1 through 4 supported $(CURRENT_ARCH) in a PBXFileReference
'path' value used in the "Link Binary with Libraries" build phase.
CMake uses this to reference object file locations on link lines to
bring in OBJECT library content. However, Xcode 5 now evaluates the
$(CURRENT_ARCH) reference in this context as "undefined_arch" so the
wrong path is given to the linker. There seems to be no alternative way
to produce an architecture-specific value in a PBXFileReference.
Fortunately Xcode 5 now also handles link dependencies for paths linked
through OTHER_LDFLAGS. For Xcode >= 5, move the OBJECT library object
file references from the link build phase to OTHER_LDFLAGS. We can
still show the object files in the source group listing in either case.
Xcode 5.0 now computes dependencies from files linked through
OTHER_LDFLAGS, so we no longer need the XCODE_DEPEND_HELPER hack to
re-link dependents when targets change.
In buggy code like
add_custom_command(
OUTPUT ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/out.h
MAIN_DEPENDENCY ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/out.h.in
...)
add_custom_command(
OUTPUT ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/out.h
...)
that has more than one rule to generate the same output CMake has always
used the first rule. However, since commit 2268c41a (Optimize custom
command full-path dependency lookup, 2013-08-06) we update the map from
output to cmSourceFile for every rule generating an output, effectively
keeping the last command instead of the first.
Fix this regression by checking for each map update if the output
already has an entry. If so, keep only the original entry. The VS 8
generator triggers this with a special case for generate.stamp rules
that differ between ZERO_CHECK and normal targets, so do not warn for
now. Leave a TODO comment for warning in the future.
Similar incomplete generator expressions are already tested
in the GeneratorExpression unit test, but those are executed
with add_custom_target. The generator expressions in the include
directories are run through the preprocessor, whereas the ones
run through add_custom_target are not.
The version of Intel Fortran that actually uses 9.10 as a project format
is very old. Default to the latest format version (11.0) and use the
older format only when known to be necessary.
