Splitting the Swift build into an object build and a separate link step,
instead of building and linking in one step. The immediate benefit is
LSP support because we are able to emit compile-commands for Swift files
now. Additionally, it is possible to specify flags to the compile step,
enabling folks to emit C and C++ headers from their Swift builds for
C/C++ interop, without needing custom commands. Eventually, this gives
us a path toward working object libraries.
Object Libraries:
- Object libraries don't work today because CMake doesn't emit targets
for object libraries into the Ninja build file.
- tl;dr: Object libraries work if they aren't WMO. Still need work to
make WMO'd object libraries work.
Object libraries still don't completely work with this patch because,
while we emit the targets, the `TARGET_OBJECTS` generator expression
expansion has a separate mechanism for determining what the names of
the objects are based on the input source files, so targets that
depend on an object library built with a whole-module optimization
will depend on objects based on the name of the source file instead
of the actual emitted object file.
These features require being able to accurately model wholemodule builds
though, because we actually need to track object files and WMO affects
what objects are emitted. For that, we require CMP0157 use the NEW
policy. When it's OLD, we have to fall back on the old behavior and
cannot provide object libraries or the compile-commands for LSP.
Issue: #25308
In commit 7351d590ee (cmTarget: Add a way to represent imported shared
library stubs, 2023-07-17, v3.28.0-rc1~344^2) we accidentally stopped
passing the SONAME of a non-imported SHARED library to our runtime
search path ordering logic. Unfortunately I have not found a way to add
a test case for this, but it at least shouldn't regress existing tests
or those added by that commit.
* Add `lexically_normal` test for all platforms.
* On Windows, MinGW does not currently handle `lexically_normal()`
correctly on UNC path, but MSVC and IntelLLVM do--add a comment
on this to avoid future confusion.
* Add test with `\\?\` notation and `weakly_canonical` that also triggers
the MinGW bug, but is fine with MSVC and oneAPI, for a more robust and
comprehensive test.
Previously CMake may generate incomplete transitive requirements in
CMakeFiles/<target>.dir/CXXModules.json and therefore in module mapper
for compiler, when source files were listed in CMakeList.txt in a
certain order.
This commit fixes the problem by correctly tracking unfinished
transitive requirements computation of module units.
There have been a simple circular test case whose circular dependency
was reported by build system. Now with this correct implementation it's
reported by CMake generating module mappers.
Add two test cases for transitive requirements computation, one with
adding source files in hardcoded order, and the other in randomized
order.
