# GetPrerequisites
# ----------------
#
# Functions to analyze and list executable file prerequisites.
#
# This module provides functions to list the .dll, .dylib or .so files
# that an executable or shared library file depends on.  (Its
# prerequisites.)
#
# It uses various tools to obtain the list of required shared library
# files:
#
# ::
#
#    dumpbin (Windows)
#    objdump (MinGW on Windows)
#    ldd (Linux/Unix)
#    otool (Mac OSX)
#
# The following functions are provided by this module:
#
# ::
#
#    get_prerequisites
#    list_prerequisites
#    list_prerequisites_by_glob
#    gp_append_unique
#    is_file_executable
#    gp_item_default_embedded_path
#      (projects can override with gp_item_default_embedded_path_override)
#    gp_resolve_item
#      (projects can override with gp_resolve_item_override)
#    gp_resolved_file_type
#      (projects can override with gp_resolved_file_type_override)
#    gp_file_type
#
# Requires CMake 2.6 or greater because it uses function, break, return
# and PARENT_SCOPE.
#
# ::
#
#   GET_PREREQUISITES(<target> <prerequisites_var> <exclude_system> <recurse>
#                     <exepath> <dirs> [<rpaths>])
#
# Get the list of shared library files required by <target>.  The list
# in the variable named <prerequisites_var> should be empty on first
# entry to this function.  On exit, <prerequisites_var> will contain the
# list of required shared library files.
#
# <target> is the full path to an executable file.  <prerequisites_var>
# is the name of a CMake variable to contain the results.
# <exclude_system> must be 0 or 1 indicating whether to include or
# exclude "system" prerequisites.  If <recurse> is set to 1 all
# prerequisites will be found recursively, if set to 0 only direct
# prerequisites are listed.  <exepath> is the path to the top level
# executable used for @executable_path replacment on the Mac.  <dirs> is
# a list of paths where libraries might be found: these paths are
# searched first when a target without any path info is given.  Then
# standard system locations are also searched: PATH, Framework
# locations, /usr/lib...
#
# ::
#
#   LIST_PREREQUISITES(<target> [<recurse> [<exclude_system> [<verbose>]]])
#
# Print a message listing the prerequisites of <target>.
#
# <target> is the name of a shared library or executable target or the
# full path to a shared library or executable file.  If <recurse> is set
# to 1 all prerequisites will be found recursively, if set to 0 only
# direct prerequisites are listed.  <exclude_system> must be 0 or 1
# indicating whether to include or exclude "system" prerequisites.  With
# <verbose> set to 0 only the full path names of the prerequisites are
# printed, set to 1 extra informatin will be displayed.
#
# ::
#
#   LIST_PREREQUISITES_BY_GLOB(<glob_arg> <glob_exp>)
#
# Print the prerequisites of shared library and executable files
# matching a globbing pattern.  <glob_arg> is GLOB or GLOB_RECURSE and
# <glob_exp> is a globbing expression used with "file(GLOB" or
# "file(GLOB_RECURSE" to retrieve a list of matching files.  If a
# matching file is executable, its prerequisites are listed.
#
# Any additional (optional) arguments provided are passed along as the
# optional arguments to the list_prerequisites calls.
#
# ::
#
#   GP_APPEND_UNIQUE(<list_var> <value>)
#
# Append <value> to the list variable <list_var> only if the value is
# not already in the list.
#
# ::
#
#   IS_FILE_EXECUTABLE(<file> <result_var>)
#
# Return 1 in <result_var> if <file> is a binary executable, 0
# otherwise.
#
# ::
#
#   GP_ITEM_DEFAULT_EMBEDDED_PATH(<item> <default_embedded_path_var>)
#
# Return the path that others should refer to the item by when the item
# is embedded inside a bundle.
#
# Override on a per-project basis by providing a project-specific
# gp_item_default_embedded_path_override function.
#
# ::
#
#   GP_RESOLVE_ITEM(<context> <item> <exepath> <dirs> <resolved_item_var>
#                   [<rpaths>])
#
# Resolve an item into an existing full path file.
#
# Override on a per-project basis by providing a project-specific
# gp_resolve_item_override function.
#
# ::
#
#   GP_RESOLVED_FILE_TYPE(<original_file> <file> <exepath> <dirs> <type_var>
#                         [<rpaths>])
#
# Return the type of <file> with respect to <original_file>.  String
# describing type of prerequisite is returned in variable named
# <type_var>.
#
# Use <exepath> and <dirs> if necessary to resolve non-absolute <file>
# values -- but only for non-embedded items.
#
# Possible types are:
#
# ::
#
#    system
#    local
#    embedded
#    other
#
# Override on a per-project basis by providing a project-specific
# gp_resolved_file_type_override function.
#
# ::
#
#   GP_FILE_TYPE(<original_file> <file> <type_var>)
#
# Return the type of <file> with respect to <original_file>.  String
# describing type of prerequisite is returned in variable named
# <type_var>.
#
# Possible types are:
#
# ::
#
#    system
