Since commit v2.8.12~437^2~2 (VS: Separate compiler and linker PDB files
2013-04-05) we no longer set /Fd with the PDB_NAME or PDB_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY
properties. Those properties now exclusively handle linker PDB files.
Since STATIC libraries do not link their compiler PDB file becomes more
important. Add new target properties "COMPILE_PDB_NAME[_<CONFIG>]" and
"COMPILE_PDB_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY[_<CONFIG>]" to specify the compiler PDB
file location and pass the value to the MSVC /Fd option.
Add a cmTarget::CompileInfo struct to hold per-configuration information
about the compilation settings in a target. This is different than
cmTarget::OutputInfo because it applies to any targets that can compile
sources even if they do not link or archive.
Replace calls to GetLinkInformation with calls to a method to get only
the target closure, not the link languages etc. The replaced calls
are used while evaluating generator expressions only. This makes
transitive generator expression evaluation independent from
the languages of a target. In a follow-up topic, it will be possible
to make the languages depend on generator expression evaluation, via
evaluation of the SOURCES and INTERFACE_SOURCES target properties.
Because the order of entries is not the same as the final link line,
the order of debug output is different in the RunCMake.CompatibleInterface
test, because the BOOL_PROP7 target property is evaluated first. Adjust
the test to account for that new order.
For the OLD CMP0022 behavior, we need to treat the implementation
as the interface when computing the interface libraries. Make it
possible to do that without computing the link languages by adding
a new GetLinkImplementationLibraries method. Extend the existing
GetLinkImplementation method to populate the languages if the
libraries have already been computed and cached.
Change GetTransitivePropertyTargets to invoke GetLinkInterfaceLibraries
instead of GetLinkInterface. This is key, as it is a method called
by cmGeneratorExpressionEvaluator.
Change the cmGeneratorExpressionEvaluator to invoke
GetLinkImplementationLibraries instead of GetLinkImplementation.
When evaluating the SOURCES property, we will need to be able to access
the link libraries without accessing the link languages, as the languages
depend on the SOURCES.
Arrange the logic so that the part which deals with libraries only is
at the top. In a follow-up commit, this will be split into two methods.
Ensure that the explanatory CMP0022 comment is only present in one
location.
The callers already skip non-targets, so unify the target search.
Change supporting functions to accept a container of targets instead
of strings where possible.
In a follow-up, the list of sources will become dependent on
the config, so check for existence in cmTarget::GetSourceFiles
instead of up-front with cmGlobalGenerator::CheckTargets().
It accepts a before parameter but is never called with before=true.
compile definitions are sorted by std::set, so it wouldn't make sense
to allow user sorting.
Most callers already have a std::string, on which they called c_str() to pass it
into these methods, which internally converted it back to std::string. Pass a
std::string directly to these methods now, avoiding all these conversions.
Those methods that only pass in a const char* will get the conversion to
std::string now only once.
Direct users of IMPORTED targets treat INTERFACE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES
as SYSTEM, after commit a63fcbcb (Always consider includes from IMPORTED
targets to be SYSTEM., 2013-08-29). It was intended that transitive
use of an IMPORTED target would have the same behavior, but that
did not work. The implementation processed only direct dependencies
in cmTarget::FinalizeSystemIncludeDirectories.
Implement transitive evaluation of dependencies by traversing the
link interface of each target in the link implementation.
There is no need to allow EXCLUDE_* properties, because an
INTERFACE_LIBRARY has no direct build output.
IMPORTED_LINK_INTERFACE_LANGUAGES are relevant only to static
libraries.
VERSION is relevant only to the filename of direct build outputs,
which INTERFACE_LIBRARY does not have.
If the dependent target sets the property to boolean false, ensure
that that appears in the debug report. Previously, the report
output contained whether the property was consistent among dependencies,
displaying 'TRUE', instead of the content of the property, which may
be 'FALSE'.
Return a std::pair from the consistentProperty method. This makes
it possible to make the return value for string types easier to
reason about. The return value of consistentProperty was previously
set to an empty static string to emulate a 'true' value for the caller
in commit 816b4a8a (cmTarget: Make consistentProperty
return consistent content., 2013-10-22). The pair makes the
consistency result properly typed.
Don't refer to 'both', but a 'mixture'. List all compatible interface
property types possible.
Add another test for a mixture of three compatibilities.
The include_directories() and add_compile_options() commands
should not append to the corresponding target property for IMPORTED
targets. This is already the case for add_definitions().
The INTERFACE_LIBRARY type does not have any LOCATION at all, so
return early from GetMappedConfig. GetMappedConfig is called from
two locations, one of which already pre-checks the INTERFACE_LIBRARY
case. Remove that pre-check and handle that case inside the method
instead.
77f3772 cmTarget: Require a compatible INTERFACE_AUTOUIC_OPTIONS from dependencies.
2e60b5f cmTarget: Report origin of COMPATIBLE_INTERFACE properties.
Revert the origin-tracking infrastructure from commit 98093c45 (QtAutoUic:
Add INTERFACE_AUTOUIC_OPTIONS target property., 2013-11-20). Use the
compatibility-tracking for compatible strings instead.
If two different dependencies require different AUTOUIC_OPTIONS,
cmake will now appropriately issue an error.
Targets which link directly to themselves should not result in
generate-time errors (reported by the DAG checker).
Self-links are handled separately with policy CMP0038.
Transitively consume the property from linked dependents.
Implement configuration-specific support by following the pattern
set out for compile definitions and includes in cmQtAutoGenerators.
Implement support for origin-tracking with CMAKE_DEBUG_TARGET_PROPERTIES.
This is motivated by the needs of KDE, which provides a separate
translation system based on gettext instead of the Qt linguist
translation system. The Qt uic tool provides command line options
for configuring the method used to translate text, and to add an
include directive to the generated file to provide the method.
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.kde.devel.frameworks/7930/focus=7992
Implement the interface to provide the uic options as a usage-requirement
on the KI18n target, as designed for KDE.
As an INTERFACE_LIBRARY has no direct link dependencies, we can
short-circuit in cmGeneratorExpressionEvaluator and
in cmGlobalGenerator::CheckLocalGenerators.
As they do not generate any output directly, any generate- or install-
related code acn also be short-circuited. Many of the local generators
already do this.
Because only INTERFACE related properties make sense on INTERFACE_LIBRARY
targets, avoid setting other properties, for example via defaults.

Resolve conflict in Source/cmTarget.cxx by integrating the changes to
the internal copy constructor from both sides. Also resolve a logical
conflict by dropping the special case for INTERFACE_LIBRARY targets.
Since cmTarget::SetMakefile already forces CMP0022 to NEW for such
targets we need no special handling.
Resolve conflict in Source/cmTargetLinkLibrariesCommand.h by dropping
the documentation change. We will make the same change in the new
location of the same documentation in a separate commit.
Resolve conflicts in
Tests/RunCMake/CMP0022/CMP0022-WARN-empty-old-stderr.txt
Tests/RunCMake/CMP0022/RunCMakeTest.cmake
by taking the side from the 'policy-CMP0022-fixes' branch.
Since cmTarget::ComputeLinkInterface is called separately for each
"head" target that links a target, the warning we produce when
CMP0022 is not set could be repeated. Add explicit logic to allow
the warning to appear at most once. Multiple copies of the warning
for the same target are almost always identical and therefore
redundant. In the rare case that two copies of the warning are
different, the second can appear in a future run after the first
is fixed.
The CMP0022 NEW behavior is that the INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES property
exactly defines the link interface. The plain target_link_libraries
signature says linking is transitive by default, so it should populate
the property.
Teach the target_link_libraries plain signature to populate the
INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES regardless of the CMP0022 setting. Refactor
the cmTarget::ComputeLinkInterface checks that warn when the policy is
not set to compare the new property to either the explicitly set old
link interface properties or the link implementation fallback for all
linkable target types, not just static libraries.
This fixes a regression in 2.8.12.0 that caused target_link_libraries to
not implement transitive linking in the plain signature once the policy
CMP0022 is set to NEW.
This has follow-on effects for other methods and classes. Further
work on making the use of const cmTarget pointers common can be
done, particularly with a view to generate-time methods.
It only generates a default constructed SourceEntry for each
cmSourceFile.
this->Internal->SourceEntries[sf];
in cmTargetTraceDependencies::Trace has the same effect, and is called
early in generation-time for each source file anyway.
638843a Remove the Location member from cmTarget.
90ef1cf Move GenerateTargetManifest to cmGeneratorTarget.
25f1df3 Split CreateGeneratorTargets into two methods.
It is never used. Presumably it only exists so that a const char * can
be returned from GetLocation. However, that is getting in the way
now, so use a static std::string instead, which is already a common
pattern in cmake.

Only valid target names or generator expressions may appear in
the target field of a LINK_ONLY expression.
Other content like link flags should still be added to that property
(wrapped in config-specific generator expressions), but not wrapped
in LINK_ONLY. Otherwise undue warnings would be issued for the
policy CMP0022.
The LINK_ONLY expression only has an effect for actual target
names anyway, so there is no logical deficit.
The source files are already processed by cmQtAutomoc to look for
moc includes, so extend that to also look for ui_ includes and
find corresponding .ui files to process.
This replaces the need to invoke qt4_wrap_ui().
As the ui files are not likely to be part of the SOURCES of the
target, store the options associated with them separately in the
cmMakefile for querying during the autogen run.
When using the boost MPL library, one can set a define to increase
the limit of how many variadic elements should be supported. The
default for BOOST_MPL_LIMIT_VECTOR_SIZE is 20:
http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_36_0/libs/mpl/doc/refmanual/limit-vector-size.html
If the foo library requires that to be set to 30, and the independent
bar library requires it to be set to 40, consumers of both need to set
it to 40.
add_library(foo INTERFACE)
set_property(TARGET foo PROPERTY INTERFACE_boost_mpl_vector_size 30)
set_property(TARGET foo PROPERTY COMPATIBLE_INTERFACE_NUMBER_MAX boost_mpl_vector_size)
target_compile_definitions(foo INTERFACE BOOST_MPL_LIMIT_VECTOR_SIZE=$<TARGET_PROPERTY:boost_mpl_vector_size>)
add_library(bar INTERFACE)
set_property(TARGET bar PROPERTY INTERFACE_boost_mpl_vector_size 40)
# Technically the next two lines are redundant, but as foo and bar are
# independent, they both set these interfaces.
set_property(TARGET bar PROPERTY COMPATIBLE_INTERFACE_NUMBER_MAX boost_mpl_vector_size)
target_compile_definitions(bar INTERFACE BOOST_MPL_LIMIT_VECTOR_SIZE=$<TARGET_PROPERTY:boost_mpl_vector_size>)
add_executable(user)
target_link_libraries(user foo bar)
Because the TARGET_PROPERTY reads the boost_mpl_vector_size property
from the HEAD of the dependency graph (the user target), and because
that property appears in the COMPATIBLE_INTERFACE_NUMBER_MAX of
the dependencies of the user target, the maximum value for it is
chosen for the compile definition, ie, 40.
There are also use-cases for choosing the minimum value of a number.
In Qt, deprecated API can be disabled by version. Setting the
definition QT_DISABLE_DEPRECATED_BEFORE=0 disables no deprecated
API. Setting it to 0x501000 disables API which was deprecated before
Qt 5.1 etc.
If two dependencies require the use of API which was deprecated in
different Qt versions, then COMPATIBLE_INTERFACE_NUMBER_MIN can be
used to ensure that both can compile.
Otherwise, in the string case, we would get a null pointer instead
of the implied empty string. That will become relevant when the
comparison result is used.
Drop all behavior activated by setting CMAKE_BACKWARDS_COMPATIBILITY to
a value lower than 2.4, and generate an error when projects or the user
attempt to do so. In the error suggest using a CMake 2.8.x release.
Teach cmake_minimum_required to warn about projects that do not require
at least CMake 2.4. They are not supported by CMake >= 3.0.
Replace the documentation of CMAKE_BACKWARDS_COMPATIBILITY with a
reference to policy CMP0001.
Other warnings for the same policy already have similar output since
commit 81d2793e (Add differing target property content to policy CMP0022
warning, 2013-09-11).
Introduce a policy to control the behavior.
The AliasTargets unit test already tests that using a
double-semicolon in the name is not an error. Change the ExportImport
test to use a namespace with a double-semicolon too.
The result is that the depends of the target are created.
So,
add_library(somelib foo.cpp)
add_library(anotherlib EXCLUDE_FROM_ALL foo.cpp)
add_library(extra EXCLUDE_FROM_ALL foo.cpp)
target_link_libraries(anotherlib extra)
add_library(iface INTERFACE)
target_link_libraries(iface INTERFACE anotherlib)
Executing 'make iface' will result in the anotherlib and extra targets
being made.
Adding a regular executable to the INTERFACE of an INTERFACE_LIBRARY
will not result in the executable being built with 'make iface' because
of the logic in cmComputeTargetDepends::AddTargetDepend.
So far, this is implemented only for the Makefile generator. Other
generators will follow if this feature is possible for them.
Make INTERFACE_LIBRARY targets part of the all target by default.
Test this by building the all target and making the expected library
EXCLUDE_FROM_ALL.
