-----------
|
|
|
|
Perform the :ref:`CTest Build Step` as a :ref:`Dashboard Client`.

ctest_build([BUILD <build-dir>] [APPEND]

)
|
|
|
|
Build the project and store results in ``Build.xml``
|
|
for submission with the :command:`ctest_submit` command.
|
|
|
|
The :variable:`CTEST_BUILD_COMMAND` variable may be set to explicitly
|
|
specify the build command line. Otherwise the build command line is
|
|
computed automatically based on the options given.
|
|
|
|
The options are:
|
|
|
|
``BUILD <build-dir>``
|
|
Specify the top-level build directory. If not given, the
|
|
:variable:`CTEST_BINARY_DIRECTORY` variable is used.
|
|
|
|
``APPEND``
|
|
Mark results for append to those previously submitted to a
|
|
dashboard server since the last :command:`ctest_start` call.
|
|
Append semantics are defined by the dashboard server in use.
|
|
|
|
``CONFIGURATION <config>``
|
|
Specify the build configuration (e.g. ``Debug``). If not
|
|
specified the ``CTEST_BUILD_CONFIGURATION`` variable will be checked.
|
|
Otherwise the ``-C <cfg>`` option given to the :manual:`ctest(1)`
|
|
command will be used, if any.
|
|
|
|
``FLAGS <flags>``
|
|
Pass additional arguments to the underlying build command.
|
|
If not specified the ``CTEST_BUILD_FLAGS`` variable will be checked.
|
|
This can, e.g., be used to trigger a parallel build using the
|
|
``-j`` option of make. See the :module:`ProcessorCount` module
|
|
for an example.
|
|
|
|
``PROJECT_NAME <project-name>``
|
|
Set the name of the project to build. This should correspond
|
|
to the top-level call to the :command:`project` command.
|
|
If not specified the ``CTEST_PROJECT_NAME`` variable will be checked.
|
|
|
|
``TARGET <target-name>``
|
|
Specify the name of a target to build. If not specified the
|
|
``CTEST_BUILD_TARGET`` variable will be checked. Otherwise the
|
|
default target will be built. This is the "all" target
|
|
(called ``ALL_BUILD`` in :ref:`Visual Studio Generators`).
|
|
|
|
``NUMBER_ERRORS <num-err-var>``
|
|
Store the number of build errors detected in the given variable.
|
|
|
|
``NUMBER_WARNINGS <num-warn-var>``
|
|
Store the number of build warnings detected in the given variable.
|
|
|
|
``RETURN_VALUE <result-var>``
|
|
Store the return value of the native build tool in the given variable.
|
|
|
|
``QUIET``
|
|
Suppress any CTest-specific non-error output that would have been
|
|
printed to the console otherwise. The summary of warnings / errors,
|
|
as well as the output from the native build tool is unaffected by
|
|
this option.
