Since commit e89ad0f94e (install: Allow installing targets created in
another directory, 2018-06-18, v3.13.0-rc1~407^2) we support calling
`install(TARGETS)` for targets created in another directory. However,
install generators are associated with the directory in which the call
to `install()` appears. This may not be the same directory in which the
target is defined. Record in each target the list of install generators
it has.
Fixes: #19546
On AIX, plugins meant to be loaded into executables via `dlopen` must be
linked with access to a list of symbols exported from the executable in
order to use them (when not using runtime linking). The AIX linker
supports specifying this list as an "import file" passed on the command
line either via the `-bI:...` option or (with a leading `#! .` line) as
a normal input file like any other library file.
The linker import file plays the same role on AIX as import libraries do
on Windows. Teach CMake to enable its import library abstraction on AIX
for executables with the `ENABLE_EXPORTS` target property set. Teach
our internal `ExportImportList` script to optionally generate a leading
`#! .` line at the top of the generated export/import list. Update our
rule for linking an executable with exports to generate a public-facing
"import library" implemented as an AIX linker import file.
With this approach, our existing infrastructure for handling import
libraries on Windows will now work for AIX linker import files too:
* Plugins that link to their executable's symbols will be automatically
linked using the import file on the command line.
* The executable's import file will be (optionally) installed and
exported for use in linking externally-built plugins.
This will allow executables and their plugins to build even if we later
turn off runtime linking.
Issue: #19163
Offer clients a `project()`-centric view of the build system. This is
similar to the directory-centric view but consolidates subdirectories
that do not call `project()` with a new project name.
