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This change was originally made by commit v3.6.0-rc1~160^2 (try_compile: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.
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.
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``.

d256ba07 try_compile: Optionally forward custom platform variables to test project
fb4791b3 cmCoreTryCompile: Refactor forwarding of variables to test project
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.
