Brad King 0227ece0a6 Help: Clarify CMAKE_VERBOSE_MAKEFILE initialization (#14658)
Explain that it is initialized to false by the project() command and
intended for configuration by the end user performing a build.

Brad King 0c55729c13 VS: Add CMAKE_VS_(DEVENV|MSBUILD|MSDEV)_COMMAND variables
Since commit 5f5c92b9 (VS: Add internal APIs to find MSBuild,
devenv/VCExpress, and msdev, 2013-11-13) the VS generators have
known how to lookup the locations of their build tools directly.
Expose this information to CMake language code by defining new
variables to hold the paths to these tools.

Stephen Kelly 98093c45db QtAutoUic: Add INTERFACE_AUTOUIC_OPTIONS target property.
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.

Stephen Kelly 7521da2852 Introduce CMAKE_STAGING_PREFIX variable.
This variable can be useful in cross-compiling contexts where the
sysroot is read-only or where the sysroot should otherwise remain
pristine.

If the new CMAKE_STAGING_PREFIX variable is set, it is used instead
of CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX when generating the installation rules in
cmake_install.cmake.

This way, the CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX variable
always refers to the installation prefix on the target device, regardless
of whether host==target.

If any -rpath paths passed to the linker contain the CMAKE_STAGING_PREFIX,
the matching path fragments are replaced with the CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX.
Matching paths in the -rpath-link are not transformed.

The cross-prefix usr-move workaround is assumed not to require extension
regarding CMAKE_STAGING_PREFIX. The staging area is a single prefix, so
there is no scope for cross-prefix symlinks. The CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX
is still used to determine the workaround path, and that variable
remains the relevant one even if CMAKE_STAGING_PREFIX is used. If the
generated export files are deployed to the target, the workaround
will still be in place, and still be employed if required.

Stephen Kelly 7cd65c97fa Add CMAKE_SYSROOT variable to set --sysroot when cross compiling.
As CMAKE_ROOT_FIND_PATH can be a list, a new CMAKE_SYSROOT is
introduced, which is never a list.

The contents of this variable is passed to supporting compilers
as --sysroot. It is also accounted for when processing implicit
link directories reported by the compiler, and when generating
RPATH information.

Stephen Kelly 5096967ecd Allow toolchain files to specify an external toolchain.
Clang can compile code, but uses the gcc tools for other tasks such
as linking. The -gcc-toolchain option can be used for that, but
generalize so that other compilers can be treated the same.

If such a location is specified, use it as a hint for finding
the binutils executables.
2013-11-19 12:39:34 -05:00
Stephen Kelly 76552d595d Add compiler target compile options.
For clang, this allows passing -target <triple> to the compiler, and
for qcc, -V<arch> using toolchain files containing something like

 set(triple arm-linux-gnueabihf)
 set(CMAKE_C_COMPILER "/usr/bin/clang")
 set(CMAKE_C_COMPILER_TARGET ${triple})
 set(CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER "/usr/bin/clang++")
 set(CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER_TARGET ${triple})

or

 set(arch gcc_ntoarmv7le)
 set(CMAKE_C_COMPILER /opt/qnx650/host/linux/x86/usr/bin/qcc)
 set(CMAKE_C_COMPILER_TARGET ${arch})
 set(CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER /opt/qnx650/host/linux/x86/usr/bin/QCC)
 set(CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER_TARGET ${arch})

Both clang and qcc are inherently cross compiler( driver)s.

When cross-compiling with clang, use the CMAKE_${lang}_COMPILER_TARGET
as the _CMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_PREFIX to find the appropriate binutils.

When cross-compiling with QNX qcc, use the CMAKE_${lang}_COMPILER_TARGET
to set the appropriate _CMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_PREFIX.

Brad King 4cce44b6c5 Help: Document the CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM variable in more detail

Brad King 4ac75fdfe6 Prefer CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM over CMAKE_BUILD_TOOL (#14548)
Historically these were both added for the Makefile and Visual Studio
generators, respectively.  Later the VS generators started using the
CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM cache entry to find the IDE build tool, and the
CMAKE_BUILD_TOOL was simply set as an alias.

Fix the documentation to explain that CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM is the modern
variable and that CMAKE_BUILD_TOOL is the compatibility alias, not the
other way around.  Replace uses of CMAKE_BUILD_TOOL with
CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM in CMake-provided modules.  Nothing needs to lookup
CMAKE_BUILD_TOOL in the cache, so simply set it as a normal variable.

Brad King 684063c036 Refactor tool selection for edit_cache (#14544)
Refactor edit_cache tool selection to ask each global generator for its
preference.  Teach the Ninja generator to always use cmake-gui because
Ninja by design cannot run interactive terminal dialogs like ccmake.
Teach the Makefile generator to use cmake-gui when also using an "extra"
generator whose IDE has no terminal to run ccmake, and otherwise fall
back to CMAKE_EDIT_COMMAND selection for normal Makefile build systems.

Stephen Kelly fe057ab3cd Allow disabling adding the install prefix to the prefix search path.
In certain scenarios, it is preferable to keep a 'dirty' install prefix
than to clear it, and to expect that content will not be found there.
Add a CMAKE_FIND_NO_INSTALL_PREFIX variable that can be set to disable
searching the install prefix.

Stephen Kelly 84218e1870 Add automatic uic invocation for Qt.
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.

Drop all behavior activated by setting CMAKE_BACKWARDS_COMPATIBILITY to

at least CMake 2.4.  They are not supported by CMake >= 3.0.
