The test for this variable was removed in commit v2.8.8~330^2~7 (complex:
Remove ancient unused ComplexRelativePaths test, 2011-12-23).
Commit v3.1.0-rc1~425^2~2 (backtrace: Convert to local paths in
IssueMessage, 2014-03-12) appears to have accidentally made some backtraces
print relative paths with the variable because conversions which used to be
done at configure time, before the variable had an effect are now potentially
done at generate time.
The documentation of the variable says not to use it, and the docs are wrong in
that the variable actually applies in per-directory scope.
The read of the variable makes it harder to split conversion methods from
cmLocalGenerator where they don't belong. Remove it now.

c7b79aa1 cmGlobalGenerator: Require a cmake instance in ctor.
01e1cd5c cmState: Move snapshot creation to the cmake instance.
Refactor the local generator creation API to accept a
cmState::Snapshot. Adjust MakeLocalGenerator to use the 'current'
snapshot in cases where there is no parent. Create the snapshot
for subdirectories in cmMakefile::AddSubdirectory.
This means that snapshots are now created at the point of extending the tree,
as appropriate, and independently of the cmLocalGenerator and cmMakefile they
represent the state for.
The <LANG>_VISIBILITY_PRESET and VISIBILITY_INLINES_HIDDEN were first
merged in commit v2.8.12~322 (Merge topic 'VISIBILITY_PRESET-property',
2013-06-05) but worked only for shared libraries and executables with
exports. Prior to commit v3.0.0-rc1~581^2 (GenerateExportHeader:
Deprecate add_compiler_export_flags function., 2013-09-02) the
add_compiler_export_flags function was used to add visibility flags to
all targets.
The visibility flags are useful for sources in all target types because
they may be later linked into shared libraries or executables with
exports. Introduce policy CMP0063 to enable them for all target types
while preserving compatibility with existing projects that do not expect
this.
Don't create a snapshot in Initialize(), but leave the creation
responsibility to the cmake instance instead. Previously, the
cmState would Initialize() in its constructor, and the cmake instance
would re-Initialize() during Configure(). The end result was the
same and there would be one snapshot present. However, cmLocalGenerator
also created a snapshot on construction, and that one was used, leaving
the first snapshot unused, and potential for off-by-one errors.
Fix that by making the cmLocalGenerator use the existing snapshot
if it is top-level. Add a CurrentSnapshot to the cmake instance and
populated it while configuring a directory. This will eventually
replace the 'current local generator' concept. Fix the GetParent
implementation to be able to return the first snapshot.

Rename the symbols according to current conventions.
Add explicit calls to Set{Source,Binary}Directory with empty strings
in order to trigger the population of the components containers with
the current working directory in cmLocalGenerator. Having
directories set to empty is a special case in CMake, which is relied
on for the `if(CMAKE_BINARY_DIR)` condition at the end of
CMakeDetermineSystem.cmake.
If the CMakeLists.txt file does not exist, there must be a parent.
The case for the top-level of the project is already handled in
cmake::DoPreConfigureChecks.

051d8be1 cmLocalGenerator: Constify some cmTarget and cmGeneratorTarget arguments
The CMAKE_<LANG>_STANDARD_DEFAULT variable indicates whether the
compiler has any notion of standard levels and that CMake knows
about them. If no language standard levels are available, skip
all logic to attempt to add a flag for the level.
Also fail with an internal error if a bad default value is set.
The refactoring in commit v3.1.0-rc1~812^2~16 (stringapi: Pass
configuration names as strings, 2014-02-09) broke the code path in
cmLocalGenerator::GenerateInstallRules that intends to pick a default
install configuration for multi-config generators. Fix the logic to
select an empty default configuration only when using a single-config
generator whose CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE is not set.

Define an empty string in CMAKE_<LANG>_STANDARD_DEFAULT to mean that
the toolchain has no notion of lanuage standard levels. In this case
the <LANG>_STANDARD[_REQUIRED] properties will have no effect.
Update the RunCMake.CompileFeatures test to exclude the
LinkImplementationFeatureCycle test when there is no standard default.
It can never fail because no use of specific features will adjust the
CXX_STANDARD level required for any target since the standard levels
have no meaning in this case.
Provide options to fail without blocking or to block up to a timeout.
Provide options to specify the scope containing the lock so it can be
released automatically at the end of a function, file, or process.
Extend the RunCMake.file test with cases covering the file(LOCK) command
usage and error cases.
The evaluation files must be known before cmTargetTraceDependencies
attempts to find them, but we must actually generate the files after
cmTargetTraceDependencies, as that can add to target SOURCES. The
limitation is that the generated output name must not depend on the
SOURCES of a target if the generated file is used by that target.
Mark the output files as GENERATED so that trace dependencies does
not expect them to already exist in the filesystem.
Move the invokation of ForceLinkerLanguage in the Generate logic
to after the generated file names are known. ForceLinkerLanguage
tries to determine the sources of a target (in order to determine
an already-known language) and otherwise fails to get information
about the generated file.
Test that the output of file(GENERATE) can be used as a target source
file and that accessing the target SOURCES in the name of the output
file is an error. Accessing the TARGET_OBJECTS would be a similar
error if it was legal to use that generator expression in this
context. That is not currently possible and is a different error
condition, so test the current error output as a reminder to change
the expected output if that becomes possible in the future. Test
that generated rule files resulting from cmTargetTraceDependencies
appear in the SOURCES generated in the output file.
Changes in commit b9aa5041 (cmLocalGenerator: Simplify GetIncludeFlags
output formatting, 2014-03-04) caused Windows Resource Compiler include
directories to be computed as relative paths in the Ninja generator.
This breaks the cmcldeps handling of include paths. The reason for the
regression is that several cmLocalGenerator::GetIncludeFlags callers
treated the fourth "bool forResponseFile" argument as if it controlled
whether include directories were a full path. It actually did control
that by accident until the above commit.
Add an explicit "bool forceFullPaths" argument to GetIncludeFlags
and thread the value through ConvertToIncludeReference as needed.
Update GetIncludeFlags call sites that really wanted to control the
forResponseFile setting to be aware of the new argument. Extend the
VSResource test to cover this case.
Create a variable to allow users to control which installation
messages are printed. In particular, provide a "LAZY" setting
that prints "Installing" messages but not "Up-to-date" messages.
This is desirable for incremental re-installations.

Create a cmInstallGenerator::MessageLevel enumeration for future use in
specifying install message verbosity. Thread values of the type through
constructors and save the value as a member of cmInstallGenerator.
Use only a "MessageDefault" value for now.
Since commit 84fdc9921 (stringapi: Pass configuration names as strings,
2014-02-09), it is not safe to use GetDefinition("CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE")
without checking the return value. Use GetSafeDefinition instead so
that a missing definition is treated as an empty string like code paths
did prior to the above commit.

Some compilers do not offer an option to specify the path to the object
file, but rather only to the directory in which to place the object
file. See issue 14876 for some examples. Add a new OBJECT_FILE_DIR
placeholder to specify the directory containing the object file for the
current compilation. This may differ from the main target OBJECT_DIR
when the object corresponds to a source in a subdirectory.
Allow setting build properties based on the features available
for a target. The availability of features is determined at
generate-time by evaluating the link implementation.
Ensure that the <LANG>_STANDARD determined while evaluating
COMPILE_FEATURES in the link implementation is not lower than that
provided by the INTERFACE of the link implementation. This is
similar to handling of transitive properties such as
POSITION_INDEPENDENT_CODE.
Add properties and variables corresponding to CXX equivalents.
Add features for c_function_prototypes (C90), c_restrict (C99),
c_variadic_macros (C99) and c_static_assert (C11). This feature
set can be extended later.
Add a <PREFIX>_RESTRICT symbol define to WriteCompilerDetectionHeader
to conditionally represent the c_restrict feature.

Just like -I flag has its -isystem counterpart which marks an include
directory as a system directory and prevents unwanted warnings, on Apple
systems there is -iframework -- a system directory replacement for -F.
Use this flag to implement include_directories(SYSTEM) for frameworks.
Use the highest standard compile flags available if requested language
version is too new.
This supports use-cases like
set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD 14)
# Compiled with -std=c++11 with GNU 4.7, which has no -std=c++14
# or equivalent flag
add_executable(main main.cpp)
This can be used in combination with preprocessor defines which
communicate the availability of certain language features for
optional use.
