Users or scripts commonly remove or replace `CMakeCache.txt` without
also removing `CMakeFiles/`. In this case the information saved in the
cache from platform information initialization is missing, so we need to
re-initialize it. In such a case, remove the platform information
directory so that re-initialization will occur and restore needed
information to the cache.
Closes: #14820
Since commit 14a8d61f (cmMakefile: Port nested error logic away from
cmExecutionStatus) we fail to continue processing function and macro
bodies after non-fatal errors. A non-fatal error should not stop
foreach loops, macro bodies, nested bodies, or the outer script.
Add a test covering these cases, and revert the change to fix them.
Also revert commit 2af853de (cmMakefile: Simplify IssueMessage
implementation) because the assertion it added (which was removed by the
above commit and is restored by reverting it) is incorrect. We do have
code paths that call cmMakefile::IssueMessage with an empty execution
stack, such as in CheckForUnusedVariables's LogUnused call.
After calls to ProcessSourceItemCMP0049, check for an empty return
string to detect a failure instead of trusting GetErrorOccuredFlag.
The latter could have been left from a preceding non-fatal error.
Extend the RunCMake.Configure test to cover a case that exposed this
problem.
Add properties and variables corresponding to CXX equivalents.
Add features for c_function_prototypes (C90), c_restrict (C99),
c_variadic_macros (C99) and c_static_assert (C11). This feature
set can be extended later.
Add a <PREFIX>_RESTRICT symbol define to WriteCompilerDetectionHeader
to conditionally represent the c_restrict feature.
Define a new 'CMAKE_CONFIGURE_DEPENDS' directory property that projects
can use to specify input files to the CMake configuration process.
Extend the RunCMake.Configure test to verify that the build system
re-runs CMake when this input changes.
Extend the RunCMake.Configure with a case to verify that the CMake
configuration process does not immediately re-run the first time that
the generated build system is invoked.
Set the minimum required version of CMake high enough to avoid the
warning for CMAKE_LEGACY_CYGWIN_WIN32. The warning appears on stderr
and breaks the expected output matching.
In CMakeDetermineCompilerABI we use try_compile with the COPY_FILE
option to get a copy of the compiled binary used to detect the ABI
information. We already tolerate the case when compilation fails.
However, when compilation appears to succeed but does not produce the
expected executable the try_compile command immediately reports an error
because the COPY_FILE fails.
Tolerate COPY_FILE failure without stopping the overall configuration
process by using the try_compile COPY_FILE_ERROR option to capture the
error message. Log the full error to CMakeError.log and simply report
failure to detect the ABI as if compilation had failed.
Teach the RunCMake.Configure test to cover this case and verify that the
messages show up as expected both in stdout and in CMakeError.log.
When CMake reports failure to configure a project, especially when the
toolchain does not initialize properly, the true reason may be clear
from reading the CMakeFiles/CMake(Output|Error).log files. Advise users
to look at these files if they exist when configuration fails.
Add RunCMake.Configure test to check that the log files are mentioned
when configuration fails.
