The set of compile flags used for a target's C and C++ sources is based
on the linker language. By default this is always the C++ flags if any
C++ sources appear in the target, and otherwise the C flags. Therefore
we can define the `COMPILE_LANGUAGE` generator expression in
`COMPILE_DEFINITIONS` to match the selected language.
This is not exactly the same as for other generators, but is the best VS
and Xcode can do. It is also sufficient for many use cases since the
set of definitions for C and C++ is frequently similar but may be
distinct from those for other languages like CUDA.
Issue: #17435
This removes duplicated code for per-config variable initialization by
providing a `cmake_initialize_per_config_variable(<PREFIX> <DOCSTRING>)`
function.
This function initializes a `<PREFIX>` cache variable from `<PREFIX>_INIT`
and unless the `CMAKE_NOT_USING_CONFIG_FLAGS` variable is defined, does
the same with `<PREFIX>_<CONFIG>` from `<PREFIX>_<CONFIG>_INIT` for every
`<CONFIG>` in `CMAKE_CONFIGURATION_TYPES` for multi-config generators or
`CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE` for single-config generators.
UTF-8 is the proper naming according to the UTF-8 RFC and is also the
name used for a similar keyword in the file() command. This commit
brings (backward compatible) consistency to the keyword names and allows
the standard UTF-8 name to be used with execute_process(). The old UTF8
keyword is still supported.
Added support for QT IFW "RemoveTargetDir" boolean option. QTIFW
supports an option to prevent, or not, deletion of the installation
directory. This is a direct pass-through to that variable.
Backtrace information was included by commit 35a52bd1b4 (server: add
"ctestInfo" request to get test info, 2017-10-25) to match that already
provided for targets. However, the backtrace representation uses too
much memory and needs to be dropped. Remove it from test information.
Issue: #17502
The backtrace information is very repetitive and hugely increases the
size of the codemodel object. We need to remove it until an alternative
representation can be developed. Revert commit v3.10.0-rc1~393^2
(server: Report backtraces in codemodel response, 2017-06-20), except
for the protocol version number (because it indicates other new things).
Unfortunately this is incompatible with clients that expect the
"crossReferences" field in targets. However, the regression in memory
usage is quite serious, especially on large projects, and therefore
breaks even older clients that do not use backtraces. Since the
"crossReferences" field was only provided by one release (3.10.0), it is
simplest to revert it outright for 3.10.1.
Fixes: #17502
This enables configuration of build parallelism with the Ninja generator by
passing arguments on the command line to CMake. For example,
cmake \
'-DCMAKE_JOB_POOLS:STRING=compile=5;link=2' \
-DCMAKE_JOB_POOL_COMPILE:STRING=compile \
-DCMAKE_JOB_POOL_LINK:STRING=link \
~/src/MyProject

CodeBlocks uses his own compiler ID string which may differ from
CMAKE_<LANG>_COMPILER_ID. In particular CodeBlocks supports a large
number of different compiler configurations (with different IDs)
This commit adds a cache variable "CMAKE_CODEBLOCKS_COMPILER_ID",
so the user might adjust it when needed.
