Commit 7235334a (Project: Determine default language dialect for the
compiler., 2015-09-15) introduced a mechanism to determine the default
dialect used for the running compiler. If conditions in
the <CompilerId>-<Lang>.cmake file are such that compile features for
that version of the compiler should be supported, the _DEFAULT_STANDARD
is set to the computed value.
However, the CMakeForceCompiler module allows users to bypass execution of the
compiler by CMake. In that case, do not set the _DEFAULT_STANDARD variable at
all, which effectively disables the compile-features where the module is used.
No compile features have ever been recorded where the module is used so no
functionality is lost.
Teach the Makefile and Ninja generators to substitute for an <INCLUDES>
placeholder instead of putting -I in <FLAGS>. Update our values for
CMAKE_<LANG>_COMPILE_OBJECT,
CMAKE_<LANG>_CREATE_ASSEMBLY_SOURCE, and
CMAKE_<LANG>_CREATE_PREPROCESSED_SOURCE
to place <INCLUDES> just before <FLAGS>.
If no compiler feature information is known for a given compiler
version, do not set a language standard default either. The two
settings must be recorded consistently.
Previously, it was inconsistent in that some platforms/compilers
had this flag for the RelWithDebInfo configuration and some didn't.
This fixes issue #11366.
Ancient versions of CMake required else(), endif(), and similar block
termination commands to have arguments matching the command starting the
block. This is no longer the preferred style.
Run the following shell code:
for c in else endif endforeach endfunction endmacro endwhile; do
echo 's/\b'"$c"'\(\s*\)(.\+)/'"$c"'\1()/'
done >convert.sed &&
git ls-files -z -- bootstrap '*.cmake' '*.cmake.in' '*CMakeLists.txt' |
egrep -z -v '^(Utilities/cm|Source/kwsys/)' |
egrep -z -v 'Tests/CMakeTests/While-Endwhile-' |
xargs -0 sed -i -f convert.sed &&
rm convert.sed
Store in new platform variables
CMAKE_${lang}_COMPILE_OPTIONS_PIC
CMAKE_${lang}_COMPILE_OPTIONS_PIE
flags for position independent code generation.
In almost all cases, this means duplication of the
CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_${lang}_FLAGS for the _PIC case and using the
assumed pie equivalent for the _PIE case. Note that the GNU compiler
has supported -fPIE since 3.4 and that there is no -fPIC on GNU for
Windows or Cygwin.
There is a possibility that the _PIE variables are not correct.
However, as there is no backwards compatibility to be concerned about
(as the POSITION_INDEPENDENT_CODE property is not used anywhere yet),
the current state suffices.
This is a GNU-specific option that should not be specified for all
compilers on Linux. It tells the GNU compiler to pass -export-dynamic
to the linker to export symbols from executables for use by plugins.
Since we provide the ENABLE_EXPORTS target property to do the same thing
in a cross-platform way, there is no need to pass -rdynamic always.
Since the option is not useful for GNU tools and breaks other tools on
Linux we simply remove it from CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_LINK_<lang>_FLAGS.
This also allows us to stop setting the variable in other Linux compiler
files just to erase the bad flag.
See issue #9985.
This moves platform-independent SunPro compiler flags into separate
"Compiler/SunPro-<lang>.cmake" modules. Platform-specific flags are
left untouched.
This teaches CMake to detect implicit link information for C, C++, and
Fortran compilers. We detect the implicit linker search directories and
implicit linker options for UNIX-like environments using verbose output
from compiler front-ends. We store results in new variables called
CMAKE_<LANG>_IMPLICIT_LINK_LIBRARIES
CMAKE_<LANG>_IMPLICIT_LINK_DIRECTORIES
The implicit libraries can contain linker flags as well as library
names.
