Compilation is complicated. Caching / distribution is even more
complicated. Sometimes there are bugs (in compilers as well as in
FASTBuild), so export the option to disable those features for CMake
targets.
The "extra" generators were created in CMake's early years to provide
support for users of specific IDEs by directly generating their project
files alongside make or ninja files. Nowadays the file-api provides a
more generic, maintainable, well-tested, and robust way for IDEs to view
CMake project build trees. Deprecate the legacy "extra" generators to
encourage the corresponding IDEs to use the file-api.
Fixes: #19090
Define the entry point to each mode as an option for the `cmake`
program, but reference the options for that mode as part of stand-in
`cmake-<mode>` programs.
If backslashes are used for CMAKE_GENERATOR_TOOLSET, then ctest
processing will complain about COMP0010.
For example:
Syntax error in cmake code at
C:/Users/XXX/test_bld/Tests/CTestTestfile.cmake:253
when parsing string
C:\Users\XXX\bin_tools\XXX
Invalid escape sequence \U
Policy CMP0010 is not set: Bad variable reference syntax is an error. Run
"cmake --help-policy CMP0010" for policy details. Use the cmake_policy
command to set the policy and suppress this warning.
Selection of a BSP only needs to be performed if not set by user.
Remove all the logic for printing error and status messages about BSP
selection. These messages also breaks CMake tests.
NOTE: If BSP selection fails then the compiler checks will result in
a build error. The build error will report that the BSP does not exist.
Support for `CMAKE_GENERATOR_INSTANCE` was added in CMake 3.11, but the
possibility was mentioned in a comment in older versions, so the wrong
versionadded value was used in commit c43e845d09 (Help: Add `..
versionadded` directives to generator docs, 2020-11-11,
v3.20.0-rc1~476^2).
Extend the list of project types added by commit a82eb539f0 (Help:
Describe the type of Visual Studio projects that can be generated,
2018-08-04, v3.13.0-rc1~227^2) to mention that Fortran projects are
supported with Intel compiler integration.
