Expose the binutils' machine name (typically used as a prefix on the
tool names) publicly. This is expected to match the `gcc -dumpmachine`
value.

The NDK provides prebuilt toolchain files in directories named for the
host architecture. The NDK build system calls this `HOST_TAG`.
Expose the value publicly for use by clients that need to pass it
to external tools.
Suggested-by: Ruslan Baratov <ruslan_baratov@yahoo.com>
When this variable is not set by the user or toolchain file, set it to
the default selected. This will be useful for client code that needs to
pass the value to an external tool that needs to find the same toolchain
in the NDK. Leave it empty for a standalone toolchain.

Visual Studio provides toolchains that are themselves built for 32-bit
or 64-bit host architectures. By default it uses the 32-bit tools, but
it can be told to prefer the 64-bit tools on 64-bit hosts. Extend the
`CMAKE_GENERATOR_TOOLSET` specification to provide a way to request
use of the 64-bit host tools.
Closes: #15622
Create a `CMAKE_SUBLIME_TEXT_2_EXCLUDE_BUILD_TREE` variable to control
addition of the build tree to `folder_exclude_patterns` in the
`.sublime-project`. Change the default of this behavior to OFF.

80574a38 Codelite: Consume the CMAKE_CODELITE_USE_TARGETS setting globally
f59e8779 cmGlobalGenerator: Add API to get settings from top-level cmMakefile
Users may need to add custom `RPATH` entries to be able to run binaries
from their build tree without setting `LD_LIBRARY_PATH`. Provide a way
to do this that does not affect the install-tree `RPATH`.
The basic codelite generator creates .project files based on the
`project()` stanza. Add a `CMAKE_CODELITE_USE_TARGETS` option to use
the targets instead.
Create a new CMAKE_Swift_LANGUAGE_VERSION variable to specify the
SWIFT_VERSION attribute in a generated Xcode project. Ideally this
would be a `<LANG>_STANDARD` property but since Swift support is
very minimal we should reserve that property for more complete
treatment later.
Issue: #16326
Add `CMAKE_FIND_PACKAGE_SORT_{ORDER,DIRECTION}` variables to specify
sort order and direction.
When multiple package with the same name have been found in the same
location sorting option can be used to force a specific version to be
loaded (e.g. libA_1.12.0 instead of libA_1.1.0). Currently sorting by
NAME and by NATURAL order have been implemented.
Natural ordering makes use of the `strverscmp(3)` ordering.
Call the generator "Visual Studio 15" without any year because the
preview version of VS 15 does not provide a year in the product name.
Copy cmGlobalVisualStudio14Generator to cmGlobalVisualStudio15Generator
and update version numbers accordingly. Add the VS15 enumeration value.
Note that we do not need to add a MSVC15 variable or v150 toolset
because Visual Studio 15 comes with an updated version of the v140
toolset and remains ABI-compatible.
Teach tests VSExternalInclude, RunCMake.GeneratorPlatform, and
RunCMake.GeneratorToolset to treat VS 15 as they do VS 10-14.
Closes: #16143
CMake now supports cross compiling for Android using the NDK or a
standalone toolchain. Document the associated variables and how how to
write toolchain files for Android.
Document these variables.
Change our convention for setting these variables from:
set(CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS_INIT "...")
to
string(APPEND CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS_INIT " ...")
so that any value previously set by a toolchain file will be used.
Document these variables.
Change our convention for setting these variables from:
set(CMAKE_C_FLAGS_INIT "...")
to
string(APPEND CMAKE_C_FLAGS_INIT " ...")
so that any value previously set by a toolchain file will be used.
Automate the conversion with:
sed -i 's/set *(\(CMAKE_\(C\|CXX\|Fortran\|RC\|ASM\|${[^}]\+}\)_FLAGS\(_[^_]\+\)\?_INIT \+"\)/string(APPEND \1 /' \
Modules/Compiler/*.cmake Modules/Platform/*.cmake
and follow up with some manual fixes (e.g. to cases that already
meant to append). Also revert the automated changes to contexts
that are not protected from running multiple times.
In the `try_compile` source file signature we propagate the caller's
value of `CMAKE_<LANG>_FLAGS` into the test project. Extend this to
propagate `CMAKE_<LANG>_FLAGS_<CONFIG>` too instead of always using the
default value in the test project. This will be useful, for example, to
allow the MSVC runtime library to be changed (e.g. `-MDd` => `-MTd`).
However, some projects may currently depend on this not being done,
so we need to activate the behavior using a policy.
This change was originally made by commit v3.6.0-rc1~160^2 (try_compile:
Honor CMAKE_<LANG>_FLAGS_<CONFIG> changes, 2016-04-11) but without the
policy and so had to be reverted during the 3.6 release candidate cycle.
Fixes#16174.
Create a LINK_WHAT_YOU_USE target property and corresponding
CMAKE_LINK_WHAT_YOU_USE variable to enable this behavior.
Extend link commands by running `ldd -u -r` to detect shared
libraries that are linked but not needed.
Add a `CMAKE_TRY_COMPILE_PLATFORM_VARIABLES` variable to specify a list
of custom variables to be forwarded to a `try_compile` test project.
This will be useful for platform information modules or toolchain files
to forward some platform-specific set of variables from the host project
(perhaps set in its cache) to the test project so that it can build the
same way.
Create a `CMAKE_<LANG>_STANDARD_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES` variable to specify
system include directories for for `<LANG>` compiler command lines.
This plays a role for include directories as the existing
`CMAKE_<LANG>_STANDARD_LIBRARIES` variable does for link libraries.
Add a `CMAKE_NINJA_OUTPUT_PATH_PREFIX` variable. When it is set, CMake
generates a `build.ninja` file suitable for embedding into another ninja
project potentially generated by an alien generator.
Create a <LANG>_CLANG_TIDY target property (initialized by a
CMAKE_<LANG>_CLANG_TIDY variable) to specify a clang-tidy command line
to be run along with the compiler.
c18d91ad Help: add release notes for topic 'ctest-run-submodule-sync'
7f560743 cmCTestGIT: run `git submodule sync` before updating submodules
06b310b5 cmCTestGIT: add an option to initialize submodules on update
56c1ea40 cmCTestGIT: fix git version references
Currently, CTest will not initialize any submodules within the already
checked out source tree. Add an option to do so. The use case for not
doing so is that some submodules may not be necessary for the current
test and keeping network usage down may be important.
Create a `CMAKE_TRY_COMPILE_TARGET_TYPE` option to specify use
of `add_library(... STATIC ...)` for the generated test project.
This will be useful for cross-compiling toolchains that cannot
link a binary without custom flags or scripts.
Since commit v3.4.0-rc1~5^2~1 (VS: Add support for selecting the Windows
10 SDK, 2015-09-30) the VS 2015 generator requires a Windows 10 SDK to
be available when CMAKE_SYSTEM_VERSION specifies Windows 10 (e.g. when
building on a Windows 10 host). Howewver, it is possible to install VS
2015 without any Windows 10 SDK. Instead of failing with an error
message about the lack of a Windows 10 SDK, simply tolerate this case
and use the default Windows 8.1 SDK. Since building for Windows Store
still requires the SDK, retain the diagnostic in that case.
