Since commit 2ae72ef74b (Xcode: Enable multi-arch TARGET_OBJECTS genex
in [INTERFACE_]LINK_LIBRARIES, 2021-05-26, v3.21.0-rc1~126^2) the
TARGET_OBJECTS genex, when referenced for linking, is now evaluated with
EvaluateForBuildsystem enabled. This causes the object file paths to be
computed with a buildsystem-specific placeholder for the configuration.
This is normally fine because the placeholder will be evaluated by the
native buildsystem tool using the proper configuration. However, the
Ninja Multi-Config generator's `${CONFIGURATION}` placeholder may not
have the correct value for cross-config object files. Switch back to
using the per-config location of each object file for this generator.
Fixes: #22436
Since commit f65f20938c (Autogen: Avoid processing CSharp targets,
2020-11-12, v3.20.0-rc1~301^2) we collect all sources for a target
earlier than previously. Clear the sources cache so that it will be
re-computed later after AUTOGEN processing.
Fixes: #22085
The code
add_library(A OBJECT a.c)
target_sources(A PRIVATE $<TARGET_OBJECTS:A>)
used to crash CMake via infinite recursion while evaluating the
generator expression. Then the change in commit v3.9.0-rc1~266^2~1
(cmGeneratorTarget: Replace source classifier implementation,
2017-04-07) avoided the infinite recursion because GetKindedSources now
creates a map entry and initializes it once. If it is called again on
the same target during that initialization, the partially computed
results are returned. This is still wrong but does not crash.
Detect and diagnose this case instead.
