Teach `export()` and `install(EXPORT)` to record this setting on the
imported targets they generate. Make this property's non-presence
authoritative on imported targets since they represent what was built
elsewhere.
Traditionally CMake generates link lines by starting with the direct
link dependencies specified by `LINK_LIBRARIES` in their original order
and then appending indirect dependencies that the direct dependencies
do not express. This gives projects control over ordering among
independent entries, which can be important when intermixing flags
and libraries, or when multiple libraries provide the same symbol.
However, it may also result in inefficient link lines.
Add support for an alternative strategy that can reorder direct link
dependencies to produce more efficient link lines. This is useful
for projects that cannot easily specify their targets' direct
dependencies in an order that satisfies indirect dependencies.
Add a `CMAKE_LINK_LIBRARIES_STRATEGY` variable and corresponding
`LINK_LIBRARIES_STRATEGY` target property to select a strategy.

This includes the target property, its initializing variable, its
initializing environment variable, and updating related docs to mention
the new bits.
By specifying CODEGEN as an argument to add_custom_command the
custom command will be added to a codegen build target.
The intent is to provide a convenient way for users to get
their generated files without having to build the whole project.
This can be helpful for code analysis tools which can be useful
for IDEs and CI.
This indicates to MSBuild which configurations are considered debug
configurations. This is useful for reference both by humans and tools.
Issue: #25327
* Per-config values were added to `AUTO*_EXECUTABLE`.
* Dependency order was refactored for `cmake_autogen` and `cmake_autorcc` to avoid unnecessary rebuilds.
* A new parameter was added for `cmake_autogen` and `cmake_autorcc` to specify the config name of the `auto*_executable` to be used.
* Add `AUTOGEN_BETTER_GRAPH_MULTI_CONFIG` target property to change the behavior of the dependency graph.
* The timestamp target is split into three targets for per-config to avoid redundant `mocs_compilation` builds when `AUTOGEN_BETTER_GRAPH_MULTI_CONFIG` is ON
* Per-config `DEP_FILE_RULE_NAME` values were added to `AutogenInfo.json` for `Multi-Config` usage.
* Some functions were refactored to avoid code duplication.

Add a `CMAKE_Swift_COMPILATION_MODE` variable and corresponding
`Swift_COMPILATION_MODE` target property to control the compilation
mode. Select among `wholemodule`, `singlefile`, and `incremental`.
Add policy CMP0157 to remove the default `-wmo` flags in favor of the
abstract setting.
Issue: #25366
Offer the capability, through variable `CMAKE_LINKER_TYPE`, as well as
the target property `LINKER_TYPE` to specify which linker must be used.
The implementation of this capability is specified by variables specific
to the language and linker type: `CMAKE_<LANG>_USING_LINKER_<TYPE>`.
Some definitions are provided as part of `CMake`.
For example, to select the `LLVM` linker rather than the standard one,
the type `LLD` should be specified through the variable `CMAKE_LINKER_TYPE`.
And, on `Apple`, `Linux` and some environments on `Windows`, the variable
`CMAKE_<LANG>_USING_LINKER_LLD` has value `-fuse-ld=lld`. And for `Windows`
environments based on `MSVC`, where the linker is used directly, the tool
`lld-link.exe` will be used rather than `link.exe`.
Fixes: #19174, #24254, #24990
This requires knowing when a generated header is public, which we can
model using file sets. Add policy CMP0154 to treat generated sources
as private by default in targets with file sets. Generated public
headers can be specified in public file sets.
Fixes: #24959
Issue: #15555
We need to be able to construct BMIs that will be usable from the client
modules for the target importing the module, so create BMI-only
compilation rules for `IMPORTED` targets to create these BMIs.
While not "usage requirements" directly, when applied to a target that
will eventually have the BMI compile rules attached to them, they need
tracked as such.
Fix a typo from commit e522f8ca06 (cmTarget: factor out properties
initialized for target which compile, 2023-02-01, v3.27.0-rc1~577^2~13),
that broke this property.
Also update the test suite to use this upgrade as some level of
coverage.
Fixes: #25123
Shared library stubs can be used for linking, but not at runtime.
Their role is similar to import libraries on Windows, so represent
their location with the `IMPORTED_IMPLIB` target property.

`AUTOGEN_USE_SYSTEM_INCLUDE` was added. `AUTOGEN_USE_SYSTEM_INCLUDE`
is a boolean property that can be set on a target to indicate that the
autogen target include directory should be added as a system include
directory or normal include directory to the target.
Add the `CMAKE_AUTOMOC_EXECUTABLE`, `CMAKE_AUTOUIC_EXECUTABLE`, and
`CMAKE_AUTORCC_EXECUTABLE` variables to initialize the corresponding
`AUTO{MOC,UIC,RCC}_EXECUTABLE` target properties.
Fixes: #20071
Provide a way to initialize the `VS_WINDOWS_TARGET_PLATFORM_MIN_VERSION`
target property on targets. It sets `WindowsTargetPlatformMinVersion`
in `.vcxproj` files.
