The rationale is similar to that in commit b3d8f5da (GenEx: Parse comma
after colon tokens specially, 2012-10-04), in that colon tokens should
not be parsed as identifier-argument delimiters after the first colon.
Otherwise the comma is treated as plain text by ParseContent.
$<STREQUAL:,> should be valid and true.
$<STREQUAL:,something> should be valid and false.
$<STREQUAL:,,> should be non-valid as it is 3 parameters.
$<STREQUAL:something,,> should be non-valid as it is 3 parameters.
Additionally, this allows reporting the correct error for other
expressions. For example $<TARGET_PROPERTY:,> should be invalid
because it has an empty target and empty property. It shouldn't
attempt to read the property ',' on the 'implicit this' target.
1e47ccb Ninja: add option to enforce usage of response files
e31df03 Ninja: move <OBJECTS> in front of the first linker option
8d674e7 Ninja: move -LIBPATH behind -link option
In the response file also linker options could be passed,
and because <OBJECTS> is replaced by a response file, it
is necessary that no compiler option follows <OBJECTS>.
This reverts commit 5598d9b2a0.
Since commit f1670ab1 (Ninja: don't confuse ninja's rsp files with
nmake's, 2012-09-26) Ninja generator response files are placed in
CMakeFiles/ so the previously existing check already avoids expanding
them.

This way the name of the searched package can be accessed in find-modules,
config-files and more importantly in generated target export files.
This is now used when a target export file detects that a required
target does not exist.

Before, cmExportFileGenerator::ComplainAboutMissingTarget() was a virtual
function which had to be implemented in the subclasses. It is not
anymore. Instead, there is now a virtual function
HandleMissingTargets(), which is implemented in the two subclasses.
This makes e.g. dealing correctly with APPEND mode easier.
Alex
Move it out of the condition that also accepts MinGW/MSYS.
Teach the test to allow the Intel for Windows compiler but
do not verify the results because the compiler does not
seem to write PDB output in all cases.

Now, if an imported target depends on a library which must come
from some other export set, cmake generates a check which errors
out if that target does not exist. I guess instead of completely
erroring out it would be better to only make the find_package() fail.
Alex
If a target is exported, and a library it depends on is not part
of the same export set, before this patch cmake errored out.
With this patch, it now checks whether the missing target
is exported somewhere else exactly once, and accepts in this
case (because then it can determine the namespace for the
missing target and use this).
